Malaysia Airlines Enrich Frequent Flyer Rewards Program

Malaysia Airlines staff

Enrich is the frequent flyer program associated with Malaysia Airlines. It has several different levels providing opportunities to accumulate points and acquire free travel.

Malaysia Airlines – the company

Malaysia Airlines is government owned and is the flag carrier airline for Malaysia. One of its claims to fame is having flown in 1997 the longest non-stop commercial flight in the world from Seattle to Kuala Lumpur.

Flying with Malaysia Airlines

The main hub for Malaysia airlines is to be found at Kuala Lumpur airport with a second at Kota Kinabula. They also have a headquarters based in Selangor at Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport. Whilst a relatively small airline, compared to some of the other major players in the airline industry, Malaysia Airlines have still managed to make their mark by being awarded a 5 star status by Skytrax; there are only six airlines that have been awarded this status and they are also being listed as an a Quality Approved Airline by Skytrax.

Malaysia Airlines has made its presence most known in the all of the Asian and Middle East areas in addition to routes between Australasia and Europe. However they do operate a flight to Los Angeles from Kuala Lumpur, which opens up a route from the East to the United States. People that fly frequently within and around the East will stand to gain the most benefits from being a member of the Malaysia Airlines’ Enrich program.

Although they have a reputation as a top quality airline, Malaysia Airlines launched an Everyday Low Fares program in 2008, which gave low budget customers more opportunities for travel. The scheme is available on all domestic routes which Malaysia Airlines and its subsidiary Firefly operate. This has put travel options within the reach of many that could not have afforded flights prior to the program being introduced.

There is one unique facility available the Malaysia Airlines Enrich program in that several members can transfer points between accounts for a small fee. This enables families or friends to pool their points to achieve bigger savings on flights and rewards.
