Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted November 1, 2007 L and V got awards leh... Actually L & V class are both mileage accruable. Yes. L & V are awarded with 30% Enrich Miles of the actual miles flown. They must have not been updating their *'Enrich Bible', because I quoted it exactly as it is. *Enrich Bible - a small booklet in a size of a slightly larger 555 book, which listed all the destinations, award charts and all you need to know about Enrich FFP. It is a booklet with 14 pages. I got it from Enrich Customer Service Center. So, what's in store for us in the new newsletter? Looks like only ASEAN destinations are being discounted (and that's only 30%). Brilliant! Just brilliant! *sarcastically* On the bright side, it is great to know that Australia's Virgin Blue is now an Enrich partner airline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
affendi osman 0 Report post Posted November 2, 2007 Today, 1 Nov 2007, a new World of Riches newsletter (for period 1 Nov 07 - 31 Jan 08) should have been uploaded in MH's website. But as always... even this puny IT matter can't be handled on time. MH has the WORST IT team among all airlines ever! I wonder whether the e-copy has reached our emails or not? just received their e-newsletter, not so many promotion available, but still ASEAN escapade sounds interesting! snackbox anyone? hahahahha..LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

H C Chai 4 Report post Posted November 5, 2007 (edited) Don't forget the 15% discount if you redeem online - therefore SIN-Bali economy saver roundtrip only needs 12,750... miles.... Personally I think SQ Krisflyer is better than Enrich. Same ticket price ex-London offered by both airlines, Krisflyer gives 100% miles whereas MAS only 25% (!) But be careful of some SQ ex-Malaysia fare (e.g. 2-to-go) which are not mileage accruable... Edited November 5, 2007 by H C Chai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keith T 2 Report post Posted November 5, 2007 (edited) But be careful of some SQ ex-Malaysia fare (e.g. 2-to-go) which are not mileage accruable... Just avoid G, N, Q, T, V on SQ, and G, N, Q, T, V and W on MI. Also if you're accruing to another FFP - W on SQ sometimes attracts only 50% accrual (like LH Miles and More). Also I forgot if this is also the case for Krisflyer. But for accruing to another FFP, if at least one segment if your itinerary on SQ is ineligible for mileage accrual - it'd render the entire itinerary ineligible for accural! Doesn't matter if the other segments in the same PNR are in eligible fare classes. Edited November 5, 2007 by Keith T Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted November 23, 2007 I just paid a visit to the Enrich Customer Service Center on 20 Nov. I have a few findings to share: MH is no longer printing out the hard copy of the Enrich newsletter, World of Riches, as a cost cutting measure. Earlier, even for those who opted for an e-newsletter, they can always come and get a hardcopy of the newsletter at the Enrich Customer Service Center. Enrich members can get their 'missing' miles from other MH's partner airlines (KLM, Air France, ANA, SWISS, Virgin Atlantic, Northwest and Virgin Blue) on the spot. Just produce the original boarding passes and tickets or e-tickets, it can be done in an instant. All boarding passes and tickets will be returned back to members. BRAVO Enrich! On the other hand, those who want to redeem their 'missing' miles from MH flights for other FFPs will have to wait for at least a week before the miles can be credited into their FFP accounts. In my case, I went to the KLM's Flying Blue Customer Service Center in Jakarta and the best that they can do was to get a copy of the boarding passes and tickets and forward it to the same office in Australia for verification. So BOOO... to Flying Blue! The Temptation Gallery on the 2nd floor of MAS Building in Jalan Sultan Ismail was closed (due to cost cutting measure - saving on office spaces' rental) and is now sharing the same office with the Enrich Customer Service Center. A cabinet is dedicated for all the Temptation's items. The Golden Holiday offices on the 2nd floor of MAS Building in Jalan Sultan Ismail was closed (due to cost cutting measure - saving on office spaces' rental) and is now sharing the same office with the MH Ticketing office on the ground floor of the same building. 3 counters are dedicated to Golden Holidays. I think it is counter 14-16. The experience proved that there is something good about Enrich after all. And about the cost cutting measures, well at least MH is now back into profitability, so yes, that's fine for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dsim 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2007 It's no brainer (unless your MH miles about to expire), just go for SQ and save the MH miles for future redemptions. "thanks" to mh expensive enrich redemption. i decided to forgo my enrich miles... and booked our tickets on another airline for less $ on all tickets and we all enjoyed the flight.

Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted December 27, 2007 Yes, I stand corrected. I was in KCH on 22 Dec and there are plenty of hard copies of World of Riches inside MH's Ticketing Office there, to which I grabbed a copy. I guess the Enrich Customer Service Officer who told me that they are not printing it anymore, 'had to cover' for the printing/distribution department who failed to print/distribute the newsletters on time. She even offered me a photocopy version of the newsletter as a prove that they are not printing it anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
