Qatar do love to throw money about. I would've never expected IB metal in Doha either but here we are. Even AA metal for gods sake!
But now AAB is gone (& Alaska's SVP being appointed OW CEO), I would expect a tone-down in their influence on what has basically become "Qatar & associates alliance" !

Indian carrier Akasa has also picked up scent from Doha and have chosen it as their first interational route to start next month, usually its UAE cities and Muscat that get such first international services by sub continent carriers.
