From this forum, it seems like MH passed the Go/No Go OW assessment and they are expected to become a full member December 2012.

No formal announcement yet...

Some rumours of a w/c 10-Dec, maybe 12.12.12, which we are now seven weeks out from (note post #3)

As of right now, the answer is "No" - MH is not yet a QF partner - see this page http://www.qantas.com.au/fflyer/dyn/partners/airline

But if MH has become a member of Oneworld by the time you fly, then the answer should be yes.
However, be aware that the ability to accrue, and the rate you get, might depend on the booking class of your ticket. Look for example at the Cathay Pacific link on the above web page - woeful earning to QF from flying CX in lower booking classes, We will all have to wait to see what the earning rate will be with MH

29 October 2012

Malaysia Airlines will become a full member of oneworld with effect from Friday 1 February 2013, adding one of commercial aviation's most frequent award winners to the world's leading quality airline alliance.

Also confirmed here : http://www.ausbt.com.au/malaysia-air...ebruary-1-2013

...MAS previousy expected to become a full operational member of oneworld in December, but a statement issued by oneworld says "while its alliance implementation programme is on track for completion in the coming weeks, its addition to oneworld is being held until the beginning of 2013 to avoid the end-of-year holiday season and for other administrative reasons."...

So has anyone starting booking travel with MH for dates past 1 Feb 13? Any idea if there will be information on earning schemes prior to them joining?

I have just booked a flight on MH for next May for which I hope to post TP and miles to BA

I know little about airline ticketing as will become obvious from this question

MH obviously don't use Amadeus, will they after 1st Feb? If not will their 5 figure
Booking ref. work in other Oneworld airlines systems or will another ref. number be required?

I would like to think that by end of November/early December some of the oneworld FFP (especially CX,QF,JL and AA) programme should have the information available.

Joining an alliance has nothing to do with switching reservation system. If you have the MH record locator already, that's what you need.

so if I want to do an OW award in late March, would I be able to use the MH flight routes yet? I'm guessing no since they aren't loaded in.
