I don't know it is going to be a metal card.

Yes, it's metal card. Same material with the Merz card i think.

But replacement card will only send upon expiry of current card, else need to pay RM175 for card replacement fee

Read this. It's a status symbol. If you are qualified for the Amex Black Card you will want to flaunt it...not keep it in digital phone. The metal sound when accidentally drop on floor (if not carpeted) will turn heads

Ok so what’s the best deal on airmiles now? I haven’t done a thorough research but seems it would be the Amex Plat Charge for local spend (1.4 MYR per mile local/overseas) and UOB VI for overseas (1.2 MYR per mile). Assuming you’re willing to stick to Maybank and play this godawful redemption game.

Are there other premium cards that offer a better conversion ratio?
*
UOB PME + Zenith = RM0.62/KF for SG/TH/VN/ID currency spending. For other currency spending, VI/PME + Zenith, you get RM0.74/KF.

Agoda booking w PME, you can get up to RM0.42/KF.

Ooh, interesting. So the Zenith relationship bonus points applies for other UOB cards as well?

Edit: I get it now. Accrue points across all cards, but convert to miles using Zenith. At RM1k annual fee, that's cheaper than the Amex Plat -- but maybe fewer benefits depending on usage.
*
You got it right! Annual spending above 240K on Zenith get bonus points, and there is loyalty bonus point depends year of usage. Free hotel night stay and complimentary limo are also good perks if you travel always.

You may explore and decide. This is MBB thread. Better stick to MBB laugh.gif

A silver lining to ex MBB card holders, Enrich points requirements for SIA is much more than KF points, but at least we have an option now using other cards. HLBB & Alliance VI looks like the better combo now for versatility and EM conversion?

For selected routes only laugh.gif

Does it work in reverse - redeem KF for MH flights?

Yes, can redeem KF for MH flights too but London only
