Booked a Qatar flight Tokyo to Istanbul August Next year. Mostly for the Qsuite, have now receved the below email from Qatar.

So this will be a regular JAL seat. We paid more for the QATAR flight that JAL is now selling cheaper. Thoughts?



Dear Valued Customer

We are pleased to inform you that our partnership with Japan Airlines, our strategic oneworld partner, has been expanded. Starting 31 March 2024, Japan Airlines will offer daily flights to and from Haneda to Doha.

As a result of this enhancement, changes will be made to the flight schedule for your upcoming trip. The flight(s) that you booked with Qatar Airways will now be operated by Japan Airlines.

Please contact us if you would like any further assistance.

We wish you a memorable journey.
 
My understanding is that QR are stopping their daily HND-DOH service and this will now be operated by JL.
QR are still going to operate their daily NRT-DOH service so perhaps you could ask to be accommodated on that service if the schedule suits you and you are happy flying into NRT
