Malaysia Airlines Avios booking

[Mdjay]

Hi does anyone know why I can’t find any reward availability for direct return flights from LHR – Kuala Lumpur, with Malaysia Airlines?

I have searched a bunch of dates but no direct routes show up, although there should be 2 per day.

Even with enrich points u will struggle find the lowest rate of redemption for lon-kul. Demand still seems to be very high

Malaysian isn’t obliged to release award availability and over the years have become increasingly tight in doing so anyway.

So I suspect you’re not doing anything wrong, it’s just not there in the first place.

Side note:
I’d also wager that in the event you did manage to find award seats on the flight and for whatever reason that didn’t suit MH’s plans (i.e they could then sell them as revenue tickets) then you’d be in a whole world of pain when it comes to unpicking the situation. This is after all the airline that sold me a non refundable ticket, cancelled the route permanently then refused point blank to give me a refund because, yes, I had bought a non refundable ticket.

I have seen reward seats for LHR-KUL with Malaysia Airlines, so there just are no reward seats available for the dates you’ve selected.

Recently, when we were returning from ?HKG, we found back up flights in F on MH from KUL to DUB, via LON. But absolutely nothing to LHR. We booked them in case we couldn’t get back to HKG, but fortunately didn’t have to use them. At least it gets you close to the U.K.!
MH are very difficult to deal with, agree, with a cancelled flight.

As part of our Multi carrier redemption trip to Australia in the spring we have routed home Kuala Lumpar- Mumbai -London
I haven’t looked at availability since I managed to get it all booked.
