MXP-PER 2200 € Oman air / Malindo

I was looking for ex-EU to AU tickets for January - March and this was the cheapest option to come up with.

2. Post active fare deals only.

This means:
  • Unless you have a deal to share, don’t start a new topic. Don’t start threads for things that are off-topic, such as general discussion about premium cabins or for help finding deals.

I don't see what you're trying to say. This seems to be very active deal. I don't know much about the ex-EU to AU fare price range but if Google is any indicator; this is a deal of sorts.

This is an active deal. LH + Oman has been coming up for a good few destinations. Something that is within an alliance Sri Lankan for about 3k for OW fliers. There is also Vietnam Airlines BUD-MEL for 2.6k. On a general topic of fares to AU

This is a good fare, but I wouldn’t consider it an active deal since this is standard Oman Air pricing. I think this could be interesting to some. I guess there aren’t many people who would want to take advantage of this. Still, you never know.

Just be aware that Malindo business class (Lion Air group to be rebranded Batik air soon) is something more near to a Premium economy than a real business class, (recliners, limited choice Y style food and drinks, no alcohol), better than traveling Y for sure, just do not set your expectations too high, certainly one or two steps below Oman air cabin.

Isn't it more like US domestic F? Given they operate A320/737 narrowbodies, definitely a huge step down from WY.

I bought SYD-LHR recently, routing SYD-BKK-MCT-LHR on TG/WY/WY. I was offered TG, MH or Malindo for the first leg all for roughly the same price. So I wonder if it's feasible to avoid Malindo on this fare.

Other days shows MH as an alternative, but they also fly KUL-PER with a 737 with recliners...

there is an option of open jaw MXP-PER / SYD-MXP MH A330 for € 2600.. will probably pull a trigger on that one as this seems to be the best deal out there in a long time..

Did they bother honouring this price or screw everyone over ?
