Mileage
Cost per passenger (including taxes & fees)€620.09Total cost for 1 passenger€620.09
Thats 320 TP.... Last Segment 2 segements in MH350 and nice JAL Business Class. For one way pretty cheap.
Also available R/T for around 50% more at ~$1,100. Can also route KUL-NRT and back on the JL flight (but with MH flight number).
If starting from Southeast Asia, can be combined/nested within a $420 KUL-KTM R/T (albeit on a 737). Total cost of ~$1,500 for 920 TPs which is roughly $1.63/TP or £1.26/TP.
Get about 24k Avios too for the combination as a BA Gold (tier bonus only on the short TYO-TPE JL coded flights).
