I lived in Dubai for 14 yrs and found Gulf Air quite good, and would have thought Qatar to be similar, have either got a route where you stop on the way ? this is where you loose a lot of time and if you have to change planes forget it.
Gulf Air serve drinks, I cant remember if thy are free or not, but I dont know if Qatar do ? long and boring journey without a drink to while away the time.
How much dearer is Emirates 'cos they are the best, with Singapore Airlines next. BA is never on my list I hate them, okay if you are club class but economy they treat you like dirt, well thats my experience anyway.
Whoever you chose enjoy your stay in Dubai.

By checking SkyTrax (airlinequality.com), you will have noticed that Qatar Airways are rated as a 5-star airline. There are only a handful of airlines that have reached this status and it's the best you'll get.
