So how many miles???
 

The BMI award chart states:



between Doha and Far East (Thailand, China, Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Burma, Hong Kong, Singapore, S Korea) and Southern Africa (Morocco, South Africa, Kenya) 70,000 105,000 140,000

between Doha and intra Far East, eg Kuala Lumpur - Jakarta, Singapore - Cebu/Jakarta 20,000 30,000 40,000


What is the difference apart from miles needed? do they just mean intra-far east with the latter?? If so, why do they say "between Doha and intra Far East"

Thanks :-:

This is for QR flights only.
The second bit is for intra Far-East flights (in effect, fifth freedom flights for QR). As I read it, the "between Doha" bit is just something that should not be there. They just prefaced all QR awards with that without paying much attention.

I guess if it did not have the "Doha To" bit people may misunderstand it as flights from the UK to the Far East via Doha?

True for the first bit, but not for the second, which is not via Doha at all, but for, eg, the KUL-CGK part of a DOH-KUL-CGK flight.
