One thing I noticed the other day is WY is selling tickets to Australia (SYD, MEL, PER, ADL, BNE) flying LHR-MCT-KUL-x with the first two segments on WY and the final one an MH-operated codeshare under a WY code. If you're willing to make two changes rather than the usual one then could be a good option. I'm debating doing it later this year.
I have actually done that routing already. We did a one way SYD-KUL-MCT-ZRH, the pricing was *highly* competitive. Connection in KUL was a little long (4.5 hrs I think) and the MH experience is pretty mediocre compared to WY, but since it was an overnight SYD-KUL flight we slept most of the way anyway, and MH's new staggered beds in business were at least fine for that.
WY was also offering only slightly more expensive routings via AUH, with the first sector on EY, which would have been a nicer product but the connection times weren't as good, and besides I wanted to maximise my time on WY.
