As already stated QA is definitely not cheap! To fly anywhere with them from Qatar is expensive. I've had cases where it would be cheaper to fly BA back to the UK and get a flight from there to my destination!
I guess they figure that people who are flying out of Qatar have enough money not to care about paying a bit extra (they just want to get away!) or their company is paying the fare.
On the plus side I find the QA experience better; nicer staff, food, furnishings and entertainment. So the higher price does go towards something.
