This looks good indeed! Does that mean I can also earn XP on Bangkok Airways? I thought the answer would be yes but the partner page is not yet updatd

Just booked a oneway MNL-KUL-SIN on MH. I was able to enter my KLM flying blue number during the process on MH's website. Flight is at the end of next month so I will wait and see.

Yes, you can earn XP on Bangkok Airways.
Though, you may need to retro claim. I had to when flying BKK-CNX-BKK.

Wow thanks for this. If you read the FB website they say you only can spent miles - and not on the flight I wanted - Ko Samui to BKK. So I ended up buying a ticket for later in November. Certainly will try to retroclaim.

I am Flying Blue Gold. As reported earlier I was able to enter my FB number (select KLM) and on my boarding pass it displays my FFP number and states the Tier Level...

I have one leg in J and one in Y. The leg in J has a lounge invite on it and the leg in Y has no invite (although I can use the lounge in KUL as an inbound J passenger).

I just flew BKK airways but simply was not able to add my FF FB number for an USM-BKK check in. They listed only other airlines. I will try with retro claim and report back.

Did you earn miles and XP on both your flights?

Sorry for the late reply. No I didn't. I checked and I don't think I was in an eligible class.

Salut,

I had to fly from Delhi to Kuala Lumpur and come back on the next day with Malaysian Airlines (MH190 & MH191). I had seen this topic a few days earlier and decided to try entering my Flying Blue number upon check in and it worked. I was awarded with both miles and XP (J ticket).

Does the XP arrive quickly on your FB account with a partner airline ? For those who are used to it, what’s the average time for the accrual to happen ? (Just flew alitalia, how long do you think it will take ?)

thanks in advance !
