Miles needed for redemption is based on revenue ticket price rather than distance or zone. So on the whole, miles needed for redemption of business/first class has become very high vs KF or AM. However can still find value in certain economy class redemption.

Also, in recent months MAS has been throwing lots of promos. Currently Matta Fair promo you can get very cheap tickets. Just a few examples:
KL-Tokyo Economy Class RM1.3k return
KL-Tokyo Business Class RM4.4k return.
KL-Beijing Business Class RM2.7k return
Whereas if you use Enrich Miles to redeem these tickets, they charge the amount of miles based on the FULL FARE of the original ticket.
In fact, I just booked a Business Class flight using cash instead of using Enrich Miles even though I have enough Miles.

Am redeeming AM for Madrid to KL, 70k for business..

Any idea how can I play around with stopover or multi city which alleged to save miles.. Been trying and couldnt find a match

Should be all their medium hall route. From Flyertalk forum.

All Medium partner awards:

Y: 25,000AM --> 27,000AM (+2,000AM)
PE: 35,000AM --> 43,000AM (+8,000AM)
J: 50,000AM --> 61,000AM (+11,000AM)
F: 75,000AM --> 87,000AM (+12,000AM)

I was looking at PRG-DOH-MLE route. It was still 50k last week when I checked.

My KUL-DOH-BUD remains the same at 70k miles.

Now i'm short of some miles to redeem SQ back to KUL. lol

Thanks for the advise, but this Maybank 2 card premier has 2 cards and have to pay for total RM50, maybe i can try to get the visa infinite for oversea spending

i got thought about this but Maybank 2 card premier have to use american express right? AMEX still not that popular in Malaysia, or even asean countries.

so far only TNB i haven't found a way to get x5 with AMEX (if got any way sifu pls enlighten me)... otherwise, all my payments are with amex premier whether directly or indirectly (ewallet).. ewallet u dun get 5x but u r double dipping with the respective wallets reward which then can covert to miles (grab)... within 6 months i got sq suite tickets to Europe (125k miles), easily worth RM30k, thats easily >20% 'cashback'.. u dun get this deal anywhere else in msia afaik

All sifu, currently I make payment via FPX nearly RM 100k every month. Is there any enrich mile bank card rewards miles point for FPX transactions?

I am accumulating asiamiles. Any cc with good redemption rate for asiamiles?

Smart traveler.....points still valid 3 years.....not sure why they decided to start another app....

My Asia Miles expiring next year August. Not sure by then is OK to fly onot.. dunno what else can redeem with AM..

Can apply again 6 months later.
I also applied Alliance VI.

RM 3000 max for e-wallet and can get 24k TBP which is 6000 TBP=1000 EM.
I’m also thinking about HLB VI. I guess can spend on Alliance VI first then follows by HLB VI. I will apply HLB VI later as well, seems good for local transactions and probably e-wallets.
Drawback is only EM for both cards.

By the way, the Sutera card is also not bad if it’s 10,000 HL Rewards = 1000EM. Technically with x8 points, spend RM 1250 and get 1000 EM.

Sutera also gives points for e-wallets.

I am also looking for new signups promo for HLB but couldn’t find any…

Correct me if I'm wrong for my skl calculation for local spending:

1. M2p assume Amex earn RM1:1 tp, tp redeem point need 5k:1k for ffp program

2. Emirates hlb direct earn skywards RM4:1

🤔🤔🤔

Guys, what do you think about HSBC Premier travel Mastercard?

1X Air Miles on all overseas spend
1X Air Miles for every RM4.00 local spend

may consider Citibank Premier miles card - earn 1 miles per rm3 local spend, and the point never expires. 1 KF/EM is equivalent to 1.5PM.
