Wow. Nice find, any other EU cities this fare could be valid?

Thanks.

Also before that - and entirely on codeshares if you prefer MH. Can even book on TK.COM.

However - involves 23 hours in IST. Worked my way through connecting codeshares and other Asian arrival points with no joy.

If anyone finds any other arrival points in SEA - please PM. I wouldn't want to push my luck with the complementary TK transit hotel! (also needs to be TK metal I believe )

Booked in May with 7h between flights.
Error fare, so there are no other arriving/departing points.

Exactly, I have less than 7h between the flights as well. All flights on TK. New Year's Eve in Asia is possible with this one.

Yep - TK start flying to KL from 25 April.

Prior to that this fare works on TK codeshare on MH - but that leaves at 15:10 with last flight arriving into IST from WAW at 15:00, so you have most of a day in airport.

You can open jaw into BKK and out of KUL on this for a non too shoddy E1400 all in. And it connects. But it's poor in comparision!

Great Fare - comes up as 'Business Restricted' on TK's website.

Thanks, mosu! Had dates in October all lined up to book on thy.com but the website started complaining - then booked frantically on the Big O as it seemed THY were pulling the fare.

But it's still there!

Thanks again! Was unable to jump on the previous (economy) WAW deals, so glad I could use this one!!!

Can anyone give me some example coding to pick up the MH codeshares on ITA for these tickets? I'm struggling.

Not sure what you mean by coding.

But if you check out WAW-KUL on TK.COM for 10/03-25/03 in Business you'll see them. Work backwards from there? Could even do WAW-IST on LOT if you fancy doing 3/4 flights on codeshares.

TK will commence flights to KUL on their own metal from April next.

If your travel dates are before commencement of TK's own direct service, you should be able to book the MH codeshare at the stated price. Once TK metal is on the route, the MH option does not seem to come up at the stated price.

Hope that helps.

That would explain it. I was about climb into my computer and rip ITA apart.

Cheers guys. Means I won't be involved in this one, but it's a nice fare for those who can use it!

Why would you want MH codeshare? You will only get bonus Miles&Smiles for this segment. No miles in any other *A/OW program.

I thought I'd earn Enrich miles on the MH metal flights?

THY is not listed as a Malaysia Airlines Enrich partner airline, so I suspect you wouldn't earn a thing in MH's own program on a TK coded flight, despite being on their metal.

(Their T&Cs say that Enrich miles are not earned on "Joint Services". However, the THY press release at the time of the announcement of the code share suggests that both TK and MH flyers would earn miles. I suspect you would have to be travelling on the MH code, though, to earn Enrich miles on the route, if it is possible at all, but I don't know for sure.)
