want to check.. i did a mileage search for KUL - HKG - AKL and the mile distance from two sites is around 7250 - 7265 miles per way. On Enrich table, category 5 redemption tops out at 7200 and goes to category 6 from 7201 onwards.

is it possible to appeal to them to keep at category 5? lol. diff by 50 miles the miles jump up to 6,000 per person.

I'm not sure you can, most things are computerized and it'll probably require approval to get through.

I'm assuming you're flying CX/MH using Enrich? Dragon Air has PEN-HKG and PEN-HKG-AKL is slightly less than 7,200 miles so maybe that is one option? You could do the KUL-PEN separately biggrin.gif

not really an option cos doing kul-pen is additional cost also. just have to suck up the extra 6k miles.

btw, has anyone tried to add stopover when booking CX using EM?

for example, my flight from KUL - HKG - AKL. I managed to see it on CX website as one direct route. Can i like travel KUL - HKG on 2/11/16 and then HKG - AKL on 5/11/16 but it's under one booking instead of 2 separate booking. If it's one booking KUL - HKG - AKL the cost is 72k EM + RM 202 tax. If i were to book it separately, the cost would be 99k EM + RM 190 tax.

Do i tell the MAS booking agent that i want to add a stopover in HKG and tell them the date of departure from HKG to AKL? Want to have all my details ready before doing the dreaded call to MAS call center.
Alternatively, would it be better if i go to MAS office in KLIA or Subang?

Hi guys,

Wanna ask about enrich miles.

Let's say 2 person is going for that trip. Booked together in a single transaction. Only 1 of the passenger has MH enrich card. He is the one paid for the whole trip.

Does the paid passenger entitled for both passenger enrich points?

Where do you guys usually park your miles? I have treats points expiring and conflicted between Enrich, Kris of Asia Miles.

Looking to redeem JFK or LHR soon. Any advice would be great

Personal choice

LHR - Enrich

JFK - Asia Miles (But be wary of the availability on CX? or alternatively can fly QR)

Search availability first then convert. I do not know how's the situation with redeeming Emirates flights with Enrich miles so maybe just LHR for Enrich. My recent CX waitlists have cleared around 20 days prior to departure. No such luck with SQ. YMMV of course.
