I'm doing a HKG->SIN->KUL->HKG trip using Asiamiles.
The reward booking total taxes told to me by the agent is HKD 948.
I did calculations using $ purchase of tickets:
- HK->SIN = HKD 255
- SIN->KL = SGD34
- KL->HKG = MYR 138.38
Total when converter all back to HKD = 255+200+274.97 = HKD 729.97
Anyone explain to me why there is approx HKD 218.03 difference?
948HKD is correct. How did you calculate yours? Did you include "carrier imposed fees" which will be counted as part of "tax/fees/chgs"?
