Sydney will get 2nd new A380 suite (2 flights in a day) starting next month.
India will have another 2 routes with new A380 coming in Q3.
Note: still have many dates with 2 seats available (suite), do act fast.

Hey guys,

Did an LHDN online payment of about 9k using Amex Reserve and was expecting 5x TP.

Anyone know if LHDN payments are excluded or treated as normal? Regular payment without installment... little disappointed to not see my point balance increase by 45k TP :S

you will get a big fat 0 TP

Actually seriously, he share nth new, most important is try to earn as much point as possible

I would say he share nothing "critical information" that one would not be able to learn elsewhere.

Anyway, his sharing also consider beneficial because it can expose us to more other airlines' experience so we can actually "know" the expected experience without us really spent TP to experience it. It will helps a little for us to choose which "best" airline to spend our TP in.

Yea, earning airmiles from cc spending isn't that difficult. (Hint: M2P is your friend, besides that's why we're all in this thread  biggrin.gif )

What requires a lot more insight, research and experience is how to make full use of those miles. There are good frequent flyer tips & tutorials like:
https://onemileatatime.com/, www.thepointsguy.com(US-centric),
www.pointhacks.com.au, https://www.flyertalk.com/ (AUS-centric)
and there's some Sg-centric sites as well
(Btw, the above sites are good for general learning, and also has articles on redeeming KF, EM, AM, etc.)

What I wish for is sites like the above but Malaysian-centric. I guess the closest is GenXYZ, but many of his articles are password protected (or you need to complete missions / be his die hard disciple for access), and nowadays he shares more about his collection of alcohol & watches, his disciples' business class redemptions, and philosophies on life, etc.. haha..
Anyone wanna volunteer to start such a blog?  tongue.gif

EDIT: Took too long to reply, previous post said the same thing  rclxub.gif

EXACTLY.

All those websites I have roughly gone through during my one month study of airmiles (do note that one month ago I don't know a single thing about airmiles), I have learned a lot from those websites BUT you CANNOT follow blindly because most of those websites teach us mostly on Europe / America airlines, how to fly from America with the lowest YQ, how to book using their own FFP, blah blah blah. Although I have learned about their way of analyzing things and some important things to take note in airmiles game, I need to spend way more time to understand it rather than a Malaysian website that I can follow BLINDLY.

Well, I don't agree with his method of imposing password in GenXYZ articles and calling his readers as disciples, etc but I cannot deny that his articles are sometimes quite informative. Whether he bullshit on his wealth, lifestyle or whatever, this is NONE OF MY BUSINESS. As long there is something beneficial to me to learn from, I will go.

Why is everyone ditching M2P and exploring other cards? M2P Amex + VI is still the best card.
The only thing that has changed recently is the non-award of TP for e-wallet topups. So comparison should just be which other card gives you the best rewards for e-wallet topups (while it lasts)

nobody is arguing M2P is the best card.

we are searching the next to this best card. brows.gif

Read that hsbc visa plat comes on top for airmiles reward.

3:1 for kf.

HSBC VS, not VP. But due to monthly bonus limit, you can't accumulate airmiles fast.

whatever you read, the next best card to replace M2P is UOB VI metal card.
