I wouldn't ever purchase a ticket giving the airline the right to charge me additional fees of unspecified amount at the airport.
Nope - not displayed when "purchasing" since as far as I know you can't book MH frequent flyer seats on nwa.com. You need to do this via a real live agent. Of course that means you will also have to pay a fee for using an agent. When you do get a frquent flyer seat using MH it would be nice if the agent were to tell you about the fee, in my experience they don't. If they do tell you they won't know the amount! Quite a system.
However, that said, C class on MH is really nice. You used to be able to get F class using miles (where the service is as good as any I have seen - including Singapore Air) but no longer.
