I think maybank and other banks will continue cut down all benefit for credit cards, because the bank negara cut down the interchange fee until 2020, after 2020, will getting lower, so all credit card benefit will drop again ><

There isn't many blogger talk/teach about miles in Msia.
But there are quite a few good one from Sg, Aus and US.
They will also suggest which card to use (but most of us here can't apply)
*
SG Aus AND US got a lot bloger because them can earn the referrals point from credit card and very easy to earn the welcome bonus, no like Msia only can earn the mile by spending, i believe if bank offer referral bonus, sure a lot sifu will come out brows.gif

Amex credit and charge card, citi rewards.... but very very bad earning power, we better off paying cash to stay

Bad earning power is same with all other country like US or SG too, this is hotel point problem, but actually the rate is very good already if you compare to US credit card, just no easy to spending to earn airmiles and hotel point all together tongue.gif

and citi reward can ignore it, only one hotel chain and the rate is very very bad.

Since everyone is asking about which to convert, I guess i'll ask as well.

Originally intends to go London/Paris for honeymoon in 2020, but with some major attractions being closed/burnt down for renovation, now looking at other destinations. If not redeeming KF will be the easiest way

For Eastern Europe - Budapest, Vienna, Prague.

AM or EM = Oneworld alliance either with QR or BA
KF = got flight from KL via Turkish Airlines

Anyone have experience? KF or AM/EM better?
*
If you don't mind take the oldest J class in SQ, KUL-SIN-IST only request 49k mile one way, after that, relocate from IST to any europe destination with other SA company like Turkish, Swiss or lufthansa airline with 29k mile but high YQ, it save a lot mile and you also can stop at IST to play around.

Actually my main agenda is travel to PVG, from KUL or SIN is fine with me, transit in HKG is also OK. Of course if can avoid SIN will be better because this is not a long haul, I don't want to transit for so many times. sweat.gif

Not sure if all these discussions should be in this thread as there's a dedicated thread for airmiles..

PVG best is AM, from KUL-HKG-PVG, return in 50K AM miles with high YQ tongue.gif

Just create AM account then you can search for award availability either at AM/CX/JL/BA website. My last redemption I had to call AM call centre because I wanted to include a stopover in HK. Their call centre is pretty rubbish. I think on average maybe 30-60 minutes before someone would answer. Needed 70% of required miles before they can hold your booking.

Anyways, I just did a search on AM website and I could see a lot of availability for KUL-LHR for 140k return. Can try Qsuites which is the best J class product for now.
*
Kul-lhr got q suite already? As i know only sin and bkk got it, and qatar yq is very very high!

Limo pick up and send off?
Butler?
Unlimited free Wifi on board?
