so if you find the dates you want on the Deltacious KUL-YYZ but you don't care for the routing or the connection times. fly it on MH
That's a very interesting point. I wonder how that would work with this fare, though, since MH don't fly to Canada at all.

True, but MH does have a rather nice C class product KUL-NRT, and you can earn RDM in Worldperks.

I booked KUL MH x/NRT DL x/ATL DL YYZ. What I loose in EQM KUL-NRT I make up for with the 3x EQM NRT-ATL (throwing away ATL-YYZ). $695.50 all-in.

Very true. I have also heard wonderful things about MH and considered flying them from KUL-ARN last fall during during a great sale they were running.

The reason for my comment above was that some FTers may not be aware that no status miles may be earned when flying MH.

Yes, and the lounge in KUL is VERY nice.

Ah, so I wasn't the only one who needed a good way home from CMB. This was a stunning find....now the question is do I want to try and add a return back YVR-KUL....at this fare, fully changeable, it's hard to resist....

Get a good travel agent to do it for you.

You example was available on exp, and If you tweak the segment time and dates you can do KUL-SIN force overnight and take the 77W the next morning, otherwise it will be 772 spacebed or possible regional C.

Just booked : there and back on KE and AIr Alaska (all transferrable to my Flying Blue) for 980 Euros. Absolutely amazing. I've added on First class MRU to KUL on Emirates (going for 1100 euros at the moment). All in all a great holiday at a great price.

Thanks for the forced overnight tip. Now I am KUL-(MH)-SIN-(SQ)-ICN-etc.
SQ 77W came in as a US codeshare!
Speedy cancelled and fully refunded my original booking with no problems. But would not confirm that return dates on tix would be changeable without penalty.
Any opinions on change fees?? Thanks

Great, so you called Expedia and canceled. Way to go! If by some miracle DL had so far missed this, they're sure to find it now.

Right. Do NOT Call anybody... not even your grandma.

As a reminder:

Do Not Call.

At least not until the fare is dead. Then you should wait for two weeks for the dust to settle!

This is in the fare rules:

CANCELLATIONS PERMITTED.
There is no airlines penalty, however, your booking source may charge you a service fee. For example, Orbi has a $10.99 non-refundable fee.@:-)
