Yeah, I also can see it now! 😆😆😆

I haven't start study about air miles and this revision coming real soon.

now I need to rethink about my plan and bring ahead the study of air miles and convert all my points before 1 June.

any recommendation article/blog/website where I can get a good start understanding/explore for Enrich / AsiaMiles / KF?

Remember to set reminder. Basically, many info can be learned here, can go milelion.com learn something too

Yours are XXXX-XXXX-3515-XXXX?

Yes daikor... 😃 Got special meaning?

Meaning we are the same batch..😊😊

there are 1000 cards in the "3515" series....the last 4 digits, the first 3 is the card number, and the last digit is a "random" check sum number....thus 1000 cards from 3515 000X to 3515 999X.........

Just out of curiosity, does the bank really follow the numerical sequence when they issue the credit cards? eg: no jumping the card number here and there?

Would be interesting to see how long does it take to "exhaust" 3515 xxxx and proceed to 3516 xxxx haha.

Why AM no good for Europe?

I can see a lot hates on EM, so which airmiles do you guys redeem with TP?

the answer is, probably they do skip.....i have applied 5 cards at the same time, 2 principals and 3 supp.....and they were not all running....

generally, you need to retrace to hk and connect using cx....if you redeem oneworld, you can start from kul with mh, ba or qr, but while the miles needed is lower, the cash upfront is higher.....

in a one stop strategy, i will always prefer sq with a changi/spore "free" stopover holiday.....lol

AM can use those Qatar , Emirates airlines or not? If yes, no need go through Hong Kong ? But dunno can redeem those partner airlines online or not... I only redeem Cathay to Europe once online

Can redeem oneworld airlines....can see qr, ba, JL....can be j class with as low as 135k miles.....but need pay a few thousand MYR.....

Ek is not oneworld.....not am partner....

Sq requires 180k miles but only a couple hundred SGD....

Oh... if we know the exact miles and also the top up cash difference... can see whether worth it or not..if the mile difference is 45k and we assign value of RM0.08 per mile, then unless we need to top up more than RM3,600 then could be better to go with AM... of course , this is rough estimate and different people assign diff values

now I am confuse.

if any good-hearted person here can enlighten me and point to towards the right direction to save some time for my study:

got three big airline alliances : oneworld alliance, Star Alliance, SkyTeam.

how does KrisFryer, Enrich, Asia Miles link with those alliance?

Thanks.

Enrich is the FFP of malaysia airline, malaysia airline is a member of one world

Krisflyer is the ffp of Singapore air, Singapore air is a member of star alliance

Asia miles is the ffp of Cathay Pacific, Cathay Pacific is a member of one world

thank you for this more direct direction, now it clear out some of my confusion.

my further question, can I use Krisflyer to redeem anyone of the star alliance airline ticket and Asia Miles/Enrich to redeem anyone of the oneworld alliance airline ticket?

Generally yes but answer isn't that straight forward.
Some airlines will have different clauses and of course different miles required.
I will suggest you aim for their own redemption (kf redeem sia, am redeem Cathay), after getting familiar only look into partner airlines.
