MH's new economy fares

The only thing really stopping me taking MH is that their Enrich miles are virtually useless, even when i was based in KL before.

I flew MH F about 10 times from LAX to TPE and collected miles on Delta (and then NW when Delta stopped accruing MH miles). Then, used Delta miles to get free SQ flights when possible!

[quik!]

PITA to deal with.

3 months to get my cancelled ticket reimbursement (still haven't got it). 2-3 weeks with SQ.

Or their lack of alliance membership, which would've easily circumvented the issue of poor FFP.
