Lol.. u just found out about Grab A deal ka? Anyway, i have to agree that the ticket price is more cheaper. Oh ya, m88, better sue MAS faster... hehe.. their statement is not true

LOL...
Apparently this Grab-A-Deal is very innovative
With the id MH11977 , password onemh & group others

Nevertheless, a good deal is still a good deal

Like what bonzaimy said, enjoy ur tix!

Ehh it's true lah!
I just saw the new Grab-A-Deal promotion...
They have new fares to India and domestic as well

I don't mind their fares...I must admit that they provide good service on board. What I detest is their Enrich website / system. It's terrible. Both design and function. Not exactly user-friendly.

I have flown with different airlines and joined their frequent flier programs. So far, MAS is the only airline that gives you air miles or points based on what type of fare class you purchased.

You guys do know that airfares offered on airlines' own websites aren't necessarily the cheapest, yea?

but i reckon the promotional fares are always better online...
and come to think of it, the fares online are much cheaper because it is not commissionable
what say you?

Promotional fares are definitely cheaper. Otherwise, it isn't a promotion, right?

Non-commissionable airfare has to be cheaper than commissionable ones, otherwise the travel agent might as well go bankrupt.

There is no right and wrong to getting the best deal. Purchasing a ticket 3 months out does not imply you are getting the cheapest deal. Promotion might kick in 1-2 months before your travel. But then again, if you just wait and not do anything, there might not be ANY promotion! Then you'll end up with expensive fares. The point is, buy when you think the time and price are right. If a cheaper deal appears later down the track, too bad, try again next time. If nothing happens, thank god I got a pretty awesome deal!

I have something to ask. Is it possible to purchase a ticket online even without a passport? This is because I have a passport and my friend doesn't. So, yesterday he went to make one at shah alam but unfortunately since he is from sabah, it will take a week to get it. I was wondering whether it is possible to buy a ticket without a passport because I don't want my friend to miss out on the promotion

Hmm... As far as i know, it is not possible without a passport
Try and ask the immigrant office to expedite the process... Tell them it's for Grab-A-Deal... Haha!

i called MAS today..they said you can change the passport no later...means you;ve to put some number there no matter what..

call MAS again to confirm..

i not used to book online tickets for mas but they need passport number instead of IC?

I bought my Grab-A-Deal ticket last Sunday night but did not receive my e-ticket. Called up MAS the next day asking them to resend they said they will send. Few hours later still haven't received. Then called up again.. and provided alternate email address. They said they will send and i should be able to receive by end of Monday or latest Tuesday morning. Still didn't receive anything on Tuesday so i sent them an email instead cos i fed up of calling (have to wait for at least 15 minutes before someone answers your call). Now it's already Friday and still i didn't get any reply nor my e-ticket. Very good.

MAS service is worse than Airasia. Last time i made some changes on my Airasia booking but didn't receive the amended itinerary. I called up Airasia and got my itinerary on the same day.

Talk about 5-star.

Quite amazing you still believe MH is a full service carrier. Remember a simple fact of life - you get what you paid for!

can use MAS Grad card to get discount (50% for domestic flight) for online booking / deal ??

or to entitle to this discount must physically go to MAS ticketing counter only?

Im not sure about a grad card but im sure they have a price for a student. PLus, as far as i know, ur max luggage is more than other.

IIRC, extra luggage allowance for students only applies to Australia and UK routes.
