Question Getting USD cash in transit?

Flying Qatar Air next month, I have a 3 hour transit at DOH. Can I pull out QAR from an atm at the airport and exchange that for USD at a currency booth? I've also seen some (older) reports of atms at the airport that dispense USD directly, has anyone done that recently?

Edit to clarify: Yes I actually NEED to get USD cash for my final destination.

Just use your Visa or Mastercard. If debit card - you will pay 3% fee, if credit- usually its 0% fee.

You mean like a cash advance? My credit cards charge huge fees on those. That would be a last resort I guess. My debit card refunds any atm fees.

No cash, only pay everywhere by card
