Thanks Mate, that was one of the most honest and informative you tube videos I have watched, telling me exactly what I needed to know. I was tossing up between Singapore Airlines and Malaysian to KL with a connecting flight to Langkawi. I never want to experience what you did with your cancelled flight to Bali as I have been through it before and that is a deal breaker for me. I'm going Singapore Airlines. Hope you enjoyed India

Wonderful video! So happy to see you flying international again!!! I flew from Sydney to Ho Chi Minh a week or so before Easter too. Omg security was a pain indeed!! Getting a credit with airlines is often a pain, unfortunately I’ve heard MH is one of the most challenging airline to deal with. Surprisingly Jetstar was the easier I’ve dealt with so far. I hope you get yours with MH soon! I too had a cancelled flight with Gulf Air just yesterday from Bahrain to Singapore. Airport staff and call centre could not help with rescheduling. They wanted to refund me instead but that meant I would be stranded in Bahrain. Luckily a Gulf Air employee saw how frustrated I was, she called a special line to get my ticket sorted, although that meant an extra connecting flight and in economy (I paid business)

Yep International travel is not what it used to be! I have a Garuda Airlines flight from Bali to Jakarta next week and it has been resheduled 3 times in the last 2 weeks! I will keep chasing Malaysian Airlines for that credit! I am not looking forward to calling their call centre. Such a long wait to get through to speak to someone. Thans for watching!

MH regular here and I must say if you’ve flown them enough you’re bound to encounter irrops. The English call centre is powerless because they’re mostly outsourced to Fiji, but I’m not sure if this has changed since covid. I had 2 missed connections on MH in J the year before covid and in both cases the transfer counter at KUL was extremely helpful in sorting things out. First was a missed international connection and I was given the choice of the next MH flight 14 hrs later or CX 8 hrs later (extra connection at HKG). Chose MH to get more rest and the CX option would have arrived at the final stop at the same time anyway. Second was a missed domestic connection due to severe weather (one fateful day when their A380s were diverted to SIN). Both instances MH offered a free night at sama-sama hotel at the airport with breakfast. Those who missed connections in Y were also provided with a hotel stay. I can’t speak to their service recovery standards in 2022 because I’ve had no disruptions so far (touchwood) and I hope you get the refunds sorted out soon! Many of us keep returning to MH because we have learned to dissociate their excellent inflight service from the occasionally frustrating experience off the plane. Stockholm syndrome perhaps.

I love that you're flying internationally again! Really hope your refund situation works out well. Coincidentally, one of my last flights (before covid) was on MH business class from London to Kuala Lumpur on their a350 featuring these seats. My flight was also delayed for technical reasons (IFE system not working) for almost 24 hours; but their customer service response was excellent. Basically I didn't have to do anything except enjoy an extra day in London! So to hear you got this slow response was indeed very disappointing. I know that top management has been changed since; and also staffing numbers have been drastically cut back these past two years since I've flown them. I hope these changes don't affect MH too much because I'd love to fly them again. Take care, and safe travels always!

Man, I do really miss flying international! I was such a regular on this MH A330 pre-youtube. I always look forward to my MH flights purely because of the satay.

Not sure with the accuracy pertaining to the use of the business class lounges.

A friend of mine flew to KL via MH a few months ago and got to use the Qantas lounge as well. Thanks for the rest of the info.

On the night I left Sydney there was definitely no access to the Qantas lounge. The last Qantas flight left at 7.25pm. There was an Emirates flight Qf8413 that left at 9.10pm. I would suggest the Qantas lounge closed after the last QF flight. The MH flight was at 10.10pm. How long did it take you to get though to the MAS phone line? I had called their call centre 2 times, on hold for 45 minutes and 30 minutes to get to speak to someone
@emercycrite2 жыл бұрын
@@NowGetThere That was probably the reason why, rather than MH not entitling you to use the lounge. This was probably more an issue with QF who operates the lounge, and it’s nice that MH offered an alternative solution to lounge access.

Before I could reschedule my flight, MAS reinstated that flight and assured me that flight will not be canceled anymore. 2 days ago, MAS canceled the same freaking flight. Called MAS and agent told me cancellation is due to weather or aircraft issue. Really? LOL!
