ever tried asking in msian lounges?....or it's bank/card specific?

I just called in to Public Bank CS today to check how many times I have used my card for PPL. Public Bank CS was able to tell me that I have never used for PPL this year, but I use 1 time last year. And FYI, the no. of entitlement goes according to calender year and not card anniversary year.

Later, I called in to MBB Amex CS to check how many times I have used my Singapore Airlines Krisflyer Amex card for PPL, the CS answered me that they need to write in and revert to me after 3 days, but if I go to any PPL, the PPL staff would be able to tell me how many times I have left. And according to credit card page: "Kindly be informed that effective 8th March 2016, access to the Plaza Premium Lounge is now up to a maximum of 5 times per calendar year." So Maybank use calender year too.

Conclusion, different bank have different ways to check the balance of entitlements.

BTW, I am going to travel from Penang - KLIA2 - China. Can I swipe the same card in the same day at Penang airport to enter Penang PPL, then later swipe at PPL KLIA2 beside Aerotel? I am asking rgd Singapore Airlines Krisflyer Amex card, Aeon Big Visa Gold and Public Islamic Platinum. Tq in advance.

Thanks for the info.
Maybank - no indication cannot use on same day.
Aeon & PBB no idea.
AMB & HSBC once / day.

Just checking hsbc Visa Signature Card for Plaza Premium Lounge in Changi airport.

I expect to swipe by two times as below:
1) 18-Jul around 11pm or before 12am
2) 19-Jul around 2-3am

This could be done right since different day ??

It has always been calendar year, never cycle year.....

Whether can use on multiple lounges within the same day, depends on the bank....but since you have different cards from different banks, it's not an issue....

Yes.....

Yes, after 12mn is a different day.
You can also dine at TGM at 11pm (close at 1am) and then T1 lounge after 12...

corporate card in general are not entitled to any promotions/benefits. it is only used for company expenses. and usually bank will give certain rebate for the usage.

Okay cool... thanks for sharing

Yes, give to company. Quite a substantial amount.

sure?
boarding pass is at 18/7 or 19/7 so can only enter on one day, not?

There is no rule that limits entry to day of departure only....a flight may be 2am, and you can enter at 10pm the day before.....

I have transited overnight at Changi, ate dinner at tgm, then overnight at ppl.....

As long as you use within the eligibility of your cards....

if no rule, can use one week ago's boarding pass to go in PPL?

technically....as the boarding pass is to establish identity and being a passenger....

however the information contained in the code they scan includes your flight details...and i am sure there is some guidelines, to allow a time frame before and after the actual flight....based on the common travel patterns and transits, i would hazard a guess of from 48hrs before flight to 12hrs after arrival....

PPL.can access foe domestic flight?

For aeon big n aeon gold card both share same 3x/yr or separate?

Separate for Aeon Big / Aeon Gold / Aeon Platinum Card

so now the credit card that give complimentary access for domestic flights are:

TGM: Public bank and Aeon only

Aerotel: Public bank only

Gateway: Maybank, RHB, Public bank and Aeon only

Maybank can access both tgm and aerotel.....

RHB used to be able to access tgm....but not sure under the revised conditions..... someone maybe can go ask....

Maybank only have tgm for international flight
no aerotel
