My trip late-January, booked a few months ahead of travelling, cost me B19,800 return. However I was slightly miffed to discover, after my return, that the long-haul sectors hadn't got me any airmiles at all with their OneWorld partner, whose frequent-flyer program I'm currently trying to build points with ! So 25-hours in Economy gained me a numb-bum, but no airmiles ! File a claim for missing miles with your cards airline, on all of my MH flights I have received air miles as well as use of lounges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are much nicer, sometimes 2-3-2 with more legroom but the best part is is is only about a 10 row section so not many other passengers constantly brushing by you and never a line at the toilet. Downside is the rear of the aircraft gets more engine noise, also, aircraft movement in rough air is accentuated in the rear. Not a good place to sit if prone to airsickness or a nervous flyer.

The original booking/PNR from the OTA never even mentioned fare-types, my QR ff-number was on all four boarding-passes, that's just life mai-pen-rai.
