Spend your Qatar Airmiles in their Duty Free shop.......

[chatkeow 28]

Just received an email announcing that Airmiles from Qatar can now be redeemed for all items within their Duty free shops at Doha on outbound and inbound transits......

 

I've had 32,000 miles which will expire this year so that will no doubt buy a fair stack of goodies.......

 

It doesn't give the redemption rate within the email so have mailed them and will add to this thread later.

Wouldn't all transits be outbound and inbound?

Yes I know, perhaps not using Qatar!

32000 miles, what does that get you?

I spent 82,000 miles in the Etihad online shop in 2009 when I knew it was unlikely I could use them, and I got 6 different items including Ferrari jacket for my eldest and top end watch amongst other stuff......

 

If Qatars redemption rate is as generous your miles should go a long way

Qatar Qmiles have responded but not very helpful.

 

Redemption rates depend on your card status and type of product purchased and these details are displayed at the entry to the shops.
