Just got my premier card approved. Just wondering spending in foreign currency online (ie. paypal, pay in foreign currency), will give x5 TP for VI?
Recently just redeem my first ever business class ticket to europe (later this year). Unfortunately, i only have enough points to redeem 1 way business + 1 way economy (economy yet to redeem). That's why switching into premier card. Feel a bit wasted to redeem for economy class. Purchase of 1 way ticket is so much expensive. Any good suggestions?
Yes, any foreign currency transaction on VI will earn x5TP.
Yes! m2premier's conversion rate is so much better compared to the other m2cards (hence the hefty annual fee), I think you would've been able to redeem 2 business class tickets if your points was on premier card.
Anyway, congrats, you'll enjoy speedy miles collection now!

Lastly, I don't think you should use your precious miles to redeem economy class, would be a huge waste, value of RM/miles is drastically lower with economy class.
Would suggest you to keep your miles until you can redeem another business/first class tix, try your best to find a cheap one-way ticket back to MY.
