I am not sure what you mean by that. The first round automatic inductees into Private Wealth are overqualified (by many times over) if you are talking about the USD1 mil. As for my case, let me get in first before I report.

Having company acc with them also which overqualified but they insisted must be from personal acc. Pls pm me to let me know what is your criteria so i can make a fuss. Hehe

So you need to be a PW customer 1st before you can ask for this card? laugh.gif

Yes.

Let's wait for dctravel since he mentioned he was qualified for it.

Do they waive the annual fees if you spend less than 80k? Lets say around 50k?

This just means more competition for the already limited award seats available. As if it was not hard enough already to score seats on popular routes. Anyway, hope the MH-EK tie up will bring some good news to us in terms of using Enrich to book EK flights.

Any update for private wealth invitation? Still waiting for your pm...

how you book the multi-carrier award? can share abit?

i heard many says AM award got limited availability, so i tried myself at AM portal to redeem CX flight, KUL-LHR always says "closed" or waiting list..
*
CX tend to be more generous to partner redemption and Only opened up the seats to MPO closer to the date. You are better chance to clear your wait list if you are a DM

what do you mean? AA de-value their award chart next year, but the % is not that high..
*
Do some research and you will know what I mean... AA used to and still grab most of CX F redemption inventories. Their redemption rate are 30% lower on CX than CX own MPO members...

AA revised its redemption chart recently but still they have tier bonus on earn points

May I know you got OW Sapphire through Malaysia Airlines or other OW carriers? My understanding is that I could use my Enrich Gold to enter CX Lounge in KLIA so long as I am flying with any OW alliances? Is it really true?

I hate the Golden Lounge, think it is overrated, crowded and the washrooms are really world class  mad.gif

Go Emerald and you will prefer Golden Lounge first side.

oic, AA was 67.5k miles one-way between US and Asia in F.. next year going up to 110k per way..
no wonder all those AA customer make noise..

(previously i was looking only at business class, that was not much different)
*
Don't think member of AA are in the position to make noise. Look at their earn tier bonus, redemption chart as well as their redemption inventories... It is time to line them up with one world.
It's time to put a stop to those DYKWIA. Lol

Fact of the matter is, most people today earn their miles through credit card spend and not actual flying. Sure it would be nice to have elite status and get sucked up to by the pretty FAs but flying on award tickets most of the time earns us nothing. Still, so long as we get lounge access with the J and F awards, nothing much to complain about really. Would be nice to have those fancy baggage tags though I suppose.  biggrin.gif
*
True, for frequent flyer, lounge is really needed for work and rest. Try to imagine you hv to work whenever you hv time in between. Nothing glamorous as frequent flyer honestly. And I never use any baggage tag. smile.gif

One trick for MH redemption tho. Z fares earn you status on CX... Redeem Z fares and change FFP by phone to MPO.

Thanks for the trick, bro. Just to reconfirm, we should contact MH or CX to change the FFP?

The good/ bad thing about MH is their inconsistency, my friend redeemed a Business Class ticket with EM and they still credit EM into her account despite it's a reward ticket. As a result, she got upgraded immediately to Enrich Silver smile.gif

Contact MH.

Hi can you please explain further what is mean by Z fares, CX, FFP and MPO

Thanks smile.gif

Hi, it should be D class. A, or D class redemption will work.

F, A, J, C, D, Z, I, ...... are fare class. Only specific fare class are eligible to accrued miles.

CX = Cathay Pacific
FFP = Frequent Flyer Program
MPO = Marco Polo

Thanks for your details explanation. I'm still new to this FFP, just get my premier card few months ago and decide start to study more on the miles redemtion smile.gif

As I know, miles exchange from credit card does not count as Elite miles and therefore useless on status upgrade, any trick to use the miles exchange from credit card to upgrade the status? eg Enrich silver, krisflyer silver MPO silver

Thanks
*
Miles exchange from card will not be counted as elite miles.
You can redeem ticket from specific airlines, depends on the fare class of ticket, you then change to partner FFP that take that fare class into elite miles...
