Your wife can book a ticket for anyone using her enrich account, not just for herself.

Unfortunately as herc says if you don't have enough from each of your Enrich accounts for a single redemption then you're out of luck, it's not possible to transfer from one TP to another person's Enrich account.

yea that is right... mine is code sharing flight and my tickets are MH code and not CX... the tickets are bought via MAS website and not cathay site... thats why i am wondering

is the enrich card important? i think i lost it. i am blue card member.

Absolutely not, just need to quote your Enrich number upon check in.

The card will be important if u want to get miles from merchant

ic,, thank you everyone.

1 more question, if i traveled enough to upgrade to enrich Silver, how they count the expiry of the silver?

let's says by March 2016, i have enough miles accrued to upgrade to Silver. So the silver will last until March 2017? or December 2017?

At least December 2017.
I got my Silver in December 2014 and it mentions 'valid until 03/2017'
Just wondering, if you could accumulate enough miles by March why not consider other FFP? Why Enrich? Are you taking Malaysia Airlines very regularly?

thanks.

my travel destination is very uncertain, but every year will travel to Beijing HongKong at least once.
right now i have Enrich and AsiaMiles membership.

any other FFP to recommend?

my spending with credit card will earn me points for air miles, right now i credit all to enrich, but starting to consider other FFP programme, trying to find out which FFP better for award flight.

You can gain FFP via 3 ways usually:
1. bonus from CC sign up. Happens very infrequently eg. the 10k TP that you get when you sign up for the MBB Premiere cards, or 30k Enrich that you get once upon a time when you sign up for Citibank PremiereMiles

2. CC spend or other spend (hotel, car rental etc)

3. actual flying

Decide which one you'll be using the most. For the majority of people it's #2
Decide what's important to you eg. short distance regional travel, long distance travel, biz/first redemption, others.
Decide also which CC you'll be using for your spend. If you're a Singapore or Australia PR for example, your options just got bigger.

With this in mind you can decide which FFP you can optimize for eg. MH Enrich and BA Avios are best for short regional travel while AAdvantage is best for biz/first redemption on OneWorld. You can get Enrich via 1, 2, 3 but Avios is available only from 2 specifically Citibank cards or 3 when flying on OneWorld airlines and AAdvantage for most Malaysians are only available via 3 when flying MH or other OneWorld airlines.

This hobby to be honest is far too complex to just describe in a few paragraphs. I've been at it since 2008 and am still learning. Read up and ask specific questions, good luck.

thank you for the explanation.

most of my miles come from credit card point, m2premier. maybank TP can redeem Enrich and Asiamiles so that why i only have these 2 memberships.

my actual travel per year is around 10k to 30k miles, so not much hope with accrual mileage from actual flying. recently just started to understand what is Fare Class, sector, and how it affects the accrual mileage and status tier.

How do you earn Enrich points through hotels' stays? Do I need to show our Enrich card during check-ins? Or do we claim it from Enrich website? Appreciate your guidance.

USE ROCKETMILES TO BOOK

i also just realized we can earn miles via hotel booking,

It's all on the Enrich website

http://www.malaysiaairlines.com/my/en/enri...les/hotels.html

enrich started another round of promo,

travel period 14-jan-2016 to 31-may-2016
booking period 2-nov-2015 to 15-nov-2015

paris 30% off enrich miles
london 20% off enrich miles

i believe there are more places under promo, but i only get to know these 2 from call center.

Just FYI- the local Amex cards that use Membership Rewards also allow you to credit into BA Avios.
The Amex Gold Credit card with waived annual fee and 5x category spend is a decent sweet spot.


Unpopular opinion, but Oneworld airlines are pretty bad for earning miles if you fly in economy.

which credit cards can be used to exchange for Enrich Miles points?

i have maybank cards, citibank cards, these banks can redeem enrich

for those flight with transit/connection, how they count the sector?

like if i buy ticket from KLIA to Beijing, but transit in HongKong

so it will be 1 sector or consider 2 sector?

Transit in Hong Kong? The ticket is sold under Cathay Pacific? You gotta be very careful with the Cathay Pacific booking class, some of the lower fares doesn't give you any miles which means no elite sector.

Conclusion is yes, It is considered 2 sectors if you have a transit in HK with the correct booking class.
