I'm beginning to think you're correct. Friend didn't know what they were talking about. A quick check revealed Qatar does have a 50 billion order including 13 A380's and 80 A350's but none have been delivered yet. My friend told me Qatar was making a big deal about their newest airplane. An "Ayy three eighty or something like that". Who knows what it really was. My friend is not an aviation buff. None the less they said this flight experience blew US carriers away. Take if for what it's worth.
