What it might mean is that Qatar with the A350 will getter better loads and yeilds and may look at increasing frequencies in the future.

It might also mean they put the A330 into another airport, but which airport ?????? 🤔

If it's going to be the UK then i'd say either LHR,LGW or MAN. Do have to wonder about their Dublin route as well.

They might want to see how they think Brexit is likely to turn out before dipping their toes further into the UK water.

UK will still need connectivity to the rest of the world and London in particular will still be one the global financial centres of the world and also i'd have thought IF their is some sort of economic downturn then London would be a sort of airline safe haven for their UK frequencies.

Confirmed - ends 1 October. I’m sure QR won’t be losing any sleep over it.
