Actually jargon, if you tell the personnel at HOU that you will deplane in DOH rather than DXB they will probably prevent you from boarding. The airlines have a legal responsibility to make sure their passengers have the proper documentation and visas for the countries to which they are travelling and to notify the downline station of who is coming. Not to mention the legal issue of the airline knowing who's on board in case of an accident! You could possibly deplane in DOH unnoticed but I'll bet you dollars to donuts you won't fly QR again (all airlines have a passenger blacklist.) And as tallg says, what about your bags? Let me know if you are successful, I'd be interested to see how on-the-ball QR is.
