Entered new lounge in PVG via MU card
Early this year entered via M2C card, but I cancel Visa and remain Amex, then apply MU visa.

Pretty awesome the international lounge usage
save me as MH flight delayed to 4am from 2am.

Wow, MUVI allowed into this lounge?
Or you have other China Eastern Airlines (MU) card?

Will try it next year.

I see. This one near gate 153?
As your flight is at 2am, I believe you went in late, almost their closing time.
Shall try out next round flying out from PVG.
*
In fact I see there around 1145pm...stay in Nap room until 315am before gather at boarding gate.

Maybe it's new lounge, they didn't chase people out as most of the guest were same flight as mine.... Our usage is more than 3 hours for sure.

If this lounge is contracted to MH as a j lounge, it is obligated to stay open till the flight departs....hence remaining open past its normal closing hours....

Looks small, compared to the 77 lounge....which was excellent....
*
Entered via MUVI. Not via MH biz ticket.
77 lounge is huge but not as comfortable as this new lounge.

hi all, remember someone ask about redemption before card cancellation.

just to confirm, if annual fee being charge to card , we didn't swipe any transaction after that, we should be able to redeem and cancel the card without paying for annual fee right?

my AF should come in June or July … probably will lack of 15K spending by then .. thinking shall I start schedule for redemption now

Well, no EPL matches currently to try luck for 5x. Try to spend more on groceries and overseas online transactions since can't travel to overseas yet. These will give you 5x TP otherwise only 2x. Otherwise, whenever possible use the AmEx Reserve for local transactions because that gives 5xTP.

Of course, exclusion applies.
Better you start redeeming now and redeem another round before AF kicks in.

okay … thanks

QUOTE(knwong @ May 7 2020, 07:34 PM)
What 15k? Are you on wrong thread?
*
annual spending

QUOTE(fruitie @ May 7 2020, 07:57 PM)
He has probably counted until July he will still have 15k to spend to achieve 80k.
*
yes you are right... consistent spending 6-7K before MCO …
during MCO , dropped to 1K/month … focus to build saving now

hey guys, just wanna know whether paying GBP university fees, will i be awarded 5x or 1x TP?

MBB T&C states 1x, but (i searched) in 2018, there were ppl commenting saying it was random (could be 1x or 5x).

Currently Paying GBP university fees thru SCB WorldMiles, did the calculation it's MYR1.33/mile. Alliance VI is MYR1.2/mile, however, we got rejected for that card. and if MBB 2 Cards Premier awards 5x , it's MYR0.94/Mile.

note: i calculated the MYR/mile in 2019, so i hope it's still the same  blush.gif

also what cards do u guys use to pay for overseas education fees?
*
Still have such high value?
I remember the last time I calculate, only worth like 0.04/miles..
Of course depend on redemption class as well.

Both of you are calculating different value.
Your 0.04/m is the value of mile when use for flight redemption.

His calculation is how much spend needed to get 1 mile.
The higher value, the poorer return.

Ohh...okay...
I still monitoring\learning how others do the calculation only... In fact i only transfer my point to KF once for Economy class redemption..which is few years back I forgot how much is the value ady...

Economy class will usually land you 3-4 cent/mile (3-4% when using Amex)
You rather use those CC giving cash back 5%

yuup.. that's mean if my RM7.5k transaction got 5x = 37,500 / 5000 = 7500 miles x 0.04 = ~approx. value RM300 right?
