QATAR AIRLINE FAVOURS GUNS.

Our son Atticus flew to Berlin via Doha from Johannesburg on 5 October on flight QR1478 which Qatar's electronic complaint form seems to have no recollection of (is this only for complaints that they cannot remember the flights?) He is a young musician and had a guitar in a guitar case. This fitted into his baggage allowance. However he was told he would have to pay quite a lot extra to take this instrument. However just ahead of him in the queue were some Belgian hunters with an ****nal of weapons in a gunbox which they were allowed to take through, at no extra cost, as part of their baggage, as shooting / hunting is regarded as a "sport" by your airline. Well I have some objection, firstly, since when are guns more valued than guitars? Secondly, other airlines have allowed us to bring cellos, guitars and violins on international flights. However some khaki-clad bloodthirsty Belgians are allowed to carry on their weapons of death and destruction. I suppose next QA will be allowing people to carry on explosives and matches. Since when is hunting a sport anyway? It's not much of a sport for the animals. In my definition, sport sees both teams having fun. I would like Qatar Airline to urgently reconsider their policy of favouring weapons over musical instruments, and as an act of goodwill & recompense deliver his instruments to him.
