How is this last min cash upgrade different from the bidding to upgrade by MH ( done online) ? pros and cons? Also, if use 30,000 miles to upgrade, might as well spend RM550 to RM800 to upgrade with cash right? cheaper.

Thanks!

Why say bye bye? They say to be replaced with even better rewards right? Or is it talk only?

You mean u use parents CIMB card points and redeem into your enrich account? And, why SQ/KF and not Asia Miles ( which has Cathay Pacific)? And lastly, do you have experience redeeming into US? Wonder if KF or Asia miles better?? Thx !!

Trying to find out which FF program to collect my miles as I want to redeem flights to US. I played around with Kris Flyer trying to book tickets 1 year out but it is on wait list only. The uncertain nature of the redemption makes it hard to plan trips. May I know what are the better options to secure seats to US? Asiamiles? I don't have account there yet. Should I open one? How is the redemption like? Online or phone call and how certain we can get the tickets? Back to Krisflyer ---- if the waitlist is 1 year out, how soon can they confirm the seats if indeed they are available? TQ.

Ok noted. TQ.

The multi carrier award I understand requires a lot of time on the phone which is not suitable for a newbie like me. I am looking at straight forward online booking for clear cut destinations .... Hoping that it is much easier to secure seats 10 months to a year out on Asiamiles. This KF, although the points very cheap, but cannot get confirmed seats no point la..I don't want to be on wait list and then if last minute still cannot get seat , my whole holiday plan goes down the drain.. I rather pay higher and get certainty ... Would be happy to stay with Enrich but they do not fly North America . One thing good about Enrich..confirmed can get as many seats as you want or your points can afford..

For CX First, are the redemption points same if we redeem via Asia Miles or OneWorld? I understand that if we book through Asia Miles, we can do it online whereas for OneWorld we have to call in right?

Thanks guys. Yes, I am referring to OneWorld through Enrich. Just wondering comparing this with redemption via Asia Miles for CX first class to US, which one is better value for money? Ie requires less miles

May I know how to key in your planned trip? Do you use multi city option then key in Kul - Sin, then Sin - muc, then muc - vie etc? So this trip is like a big loop? No need for any open jaws? Thanks.

If not allowed, can always buy separately right for KuL - Nrt?

U mean u booked exactly 330 days in advance and then only for the outbound? For coming back, have to wait for exactly 330 days before flight to book? Is that what u mean?

Is LHR a transit or stopover on both occasions? And, I understand AM is very hard to redeem for those with no elite status? Thought about converting into AM but if points stucked inside cannot redeem also Susah. At least with Enrich... more or less sure to get to redeem LHR or Oz or NRT.

Dunno should convert to Asiamiles or KF....AM got extra 15% but was thinking accumulate more Krisflyer for the suite...

Other than Cathay P, are there any first/biz class to Europe that are good and available from AM?

Helps if it is also easier to book

Why not book from KUL to LHR...extra 10k miles only

I guess billionaires not so particular about Miles lah.. if got better .. but if dun have .. I don’t think they will lose sleep over it.. lol

If we have redeemed Asia Miles for tickets, are these tickets amendable or refundable if a trip is cancelled? Thx

Would like to ask for Asia Miles, are the carriage surcharges and taxes paid refundable when we cancel the redeemed tickets? (A cancellation fee of usd120 applies) thanks

Oh ok, means if cancel 2 tickets, they will return everything after deducting usd240?
