I had login into enrich website just now to claim my missing miles on previous flight PEN-KUL date 8th Dec. So impressing me, it's credited just in a few minutes and my miles straight updated after I submitted using claim missing miles menu. Previously this function not working properly. Thanks Enrich for upgrading system I guess.

Heard info some event will be held at KLIA on next week (nice date) in conjunction 40 years celebration. Special livery launching maybe?

I think better we have one section to log any AirAsia withdrawn routes start 2013 onwards. Starting 1st Feb they will stop 7x weekly flights within Kota Kinabalu (BKI) - Clark (CRK).

Yup, I guess due to upgrading on new MAS website. It's happened to me when my flights in Oct, Enrich miles doesn't credited as usual so I went straight to Enrich office at KL Sentral to claim. She had mentioned, system a bit problems but now my flights on Nov and Dec EM automatically credited within 24Hrs.
