FlyerTalk Forums Expert How-Tos and Guides
Last edit by: NWIFlyer
With the evolution of the Miles&Bonus program, there are a number of threads on this forum that contain outdated information, plus a further set that - whilst describing the new program - contain conflicting information that has only been crystallised as we all discover how certain aspects of the program either work or are interpreted.

It is perhaps therefore unsurprising that many new members find searching through this myriad of threads a little daunting, and consequently they post a question in one of the FAQ threads.

This tends to irk those who've been around for a while who expect the new posters to at least do some basic searching before posting a question that has probably been asked many times before. This also causes the forums to become very congested and less easy to read through with the same question being asked and answered many times.

I am therefore creating a thread, which will be stickied, for anyone to ask any question they like about the M&B program where they are unsure or it's not obvious where they should be posting it.

There is no such thing in this thread as a stupid question, no issue with asking a repeat question, and any answers should be 100% flame-free. I will take a dim view of anyone that abuses a member or provides a less than helpful answer (such as 'do a search') to any question asked in here, because this is being created to benefit all of us so the other threads flow more cleanly. Thank you for your co-operation on this.

It might be that I move questions to more appropriate threads so they receive an answer more quickly, but if I do so I will always add a note to indicate where they originated, and ask that the flame-free answer principle be respected.

Ok so i got my aegean visa, converted points to 110000 miles.
Checked ticket ATH to KUL in J.
Except Turkish,, Neither Swiss or Singapore offer availability from Jan 20 to Mid February. Only in Y.
I know SQ doesnt offer F on partners redemption pages but not even J class?

SQ J is only available to partners on selected routes.
So far I've only seen it on intra Asia flights.

From a first point of view, the absence of Gulf airlines limits the choices.At least to Eastern destinations. Plus all star alliance partners charge high fuel taxes.

Thanks for the tip but heres come the question.
I will need an extra separate ticket to ist which is quite affordable with aegean and has great connection time. But i am worried about the new airport transfer affair. What if one of the above airlines move to the new airport and other not?

Cant afford to miss a day in KL. At the end i would rather fly TK, at least they have 777-300 unlike SQ.

Just out of curiosity: Why do you prefer a 777-300ER over a 777-200ER?

Have only flew 200ER in SQ economy. No usb, small IFE screens, no toilets at the tail section. Service was the best i had in economy. Business on trip reports looks kinda obsolete though
In any case since i have plenty of miles, i will just look for the quickest/lowest tax flight. I just hoped to enjoy the great SQ service again.

Not all *A carriers charge high fuel taxes on all reward tickets.
