How about the 15% discount for online redemption? Can anyone confirm that the same is applicable to the new redemption scheme?

I have 2 questions:

1. Is it possible that for certain flights where the economy tickets are full but you are still able to use Enrich miles to book the tickets? This is what seems to be happening but I cannot understand why they do it.

2. Can you use Enrich miles to book a ticket/tickets that is not in your name? These people are traveling without you.
*
1. Yes, there is a possibility but you will need more EM for the same ticket. Do log into https://www.enrich.malaysiaairlines.com/ for more details. For example, normal redemption with EM for one way from KUL to BKK will need only 8,500 miles but you will need 18,700 miles for redemption during peak season like Hari Raya, Chinese New Year and etc.
2. Yes, it is definitely possible. We have done that few times already.

I was referring to converting credit card points to enrich points. Not geting enrich points from redeemed tickets
*
It's a definite NO! Otherwise all the big shots here would be Enrich Platinum (Emerald) and Enrich Gold (Sapphire)

Just curious, since u collecting 80k-150k a month, i supposed u r in Platinum level instead of still stuck in gold... My previous year flying lesser than u i guess but i still with platinum ...
*
Yes, i am curious too. 80k to 150k per month is lots of miles? He is probably flying to Europe every month with first class?

i've requalified for silver sometime in Aug - Sep but i dont receive new card & luggage tags.
Last year it was fast, like 1 to 2 weeks after qualifying flight sectors.

is this only for 1 time gift for elite members?
*
It doesn't matter whether you receive the new card & luggage tag or not, just use your MH number upon check in and you would see that it will be listed as Enrich Silver or Ruby for the One World.

I'm interested in getting a new luggage tag...that's all smile.gif

I am sure there's a lot of more interesting luggage tag out there tongue.gif , just hate that they mention my full name on the tag and that drives me nuts mad.gif

Don't get me started with Malaysia Airlines!

I paid additional to get the L/V/S class but they have issued me a wrong class at N class only and I called the call center and was told to email them and she hung up on me! Emailed them and was given a case number and that's it, it's been more than 1 month and every time when I tried to follow up, I was told to wait for further instruction on email. It's their mistake and they make it like it's my fault!

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

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?

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.

maybank card center quite efficient, yesterday dinner time 715pm called to do redemption
this morning credited, with the extra 10%

less than 24 hours..
*
Where are you going? Paris/London/Amsterdam or Auckland?

I've been always curious about this, is it worthwhile to purchase a MH Smart and then upgrade with 80k return? Do you still need to pay the tax and fees? Why not just do a full redemption + 127,500EM (with 15% online redemption) + tax and fee?

Thanks

if anyone is wondering, must use Qatar miles to upgrade. The agent claim they do not accept miles from other One World programme.

Just wondering, why you think that you could use EM to upgrade Qatar flight?

Your enrich can redeem flight, can redeem economy, business, first class. But you cannot redeem class upgrade.

Enrich can only upgrade MAS.

Qatar Q miles can only upgrade their own flight.
*
Yes, that's my understanding too.

Any idea which credit cards in Malaysia besides CTB Premiermiles that you could use your credit card points to redeem Qmiles?

Hi, wanted to confirm, is it true that maximum of 50,000 miles are allowed for transfer in a year?

Means even if i want to buy from others, i can only get 50,000 max?
*
Yes, maximum amount of miles for a recipient to receive is "50000" miles per year. But is it really worthwhile to transfer considering Malaysia Airlines is charging RM0.04 per EM transferred + RM40 administration fee. So in total, you will need to pay RM2040 for 50000 miles.
