I saw this while flying MAS last week too. Wanted to ask - how much savings do I get if I deduct the RM600 fee, and the fuel surcharges and taxes, for a flight to Paris? I know MAS offers flights for RM2,700 or so during MATTA Fair and other promotions, so if a return trip incurs RM1,000 or so in additional charges, then it's a nett savings of RM2,700 - RM1,000 - RM600 = RM1,100? The selection of flights for award redemption might be much less desirable too?
Enrich miles are best used if not flying Economy class I believe, see an example below :KUL > CDG one way, Economy Class RM1565 inc Taxes + Surcharges
KUL > CDG one way, Business Class RM8352 inc Taxes + Surcharges
KUL > CDG one way, First Class RM18822 inc Taxes + Surcharges
If doing the above 3 flights on the same day using Enrich redemption works out as below :
KUL > CDG one way, Economy Class RM636 + 25500 Enrich Miles = Saving of RM929 / RM0.036 per mile
KUL > CDG one way, Business Class RM709 + 46750 Enrich Miles = Saving of RM7643 / RM0.16 per mile
KUL > CDG one way, First Class RM709 + 136000 Enrich Miles = Saving of RM18113 / RM0.13 per mile
