VA: MEL-HKG RT A$499 (US$368) 1 May - 13 June 2019

Not a mega MR but VA credits to many programs so this could be a handy flight.

On DL this would earn 9180 MQM, 4590 RDM base (elites do get a bonus on VA), and $918 MQD (could be wrong on that).

VA also partners with SQ, EY, and VS among others.

*This is a flash sale fare which is only good for the next ~27 hours*
