Qatar Airways v Swiss

I need to buy a budget ticket London -Hong Kong return

my options are Qatar Airways or Swiss

I hear crappy reports on both of them. does anyone have any experience of either.
QR is a stop to change aircraft in Doha both ways 50 mins on way out, 3hrs 55 on way back
Swiss is a stop in Zurich 1hr 15 on way out, 50 mins on way back


My 2 key concerns are:
1) missing a connection
2) my baggage missing a connection (or being lost entirely)

Not TOO bothered about comfort, food etc

I am currently erring on the side of Swiss on the Swiss nation being "efficient" and the stopovers being shorter, but does anyone have any tips or views as to which might be best

thanks
