I went to DOH. total trip for 4 days totalled best part of 1000british tender.
It might also be a selection to see whose serious enough to fly out there... I don't know. But i had a fantastic experience to see QR and doha for the first time. ...I hear Doha is now more frequent ...but if you dont want to take the risk then waiting in UK is by no means wrong. Just might have to wait 2-3 months
