From Brisbane to Male - suggestion needed pls

[lucky777]

Hi All,

I am looking for a trip to Maldives, and wondering what is the best to book 3 or 4 business class return from Brisbane to Male?
I have qantas, asia miles, krisflyer, ANA and Amex points.

Any suggestion is welcome.. Would prefer business but if its too hard I might even consider economy, dont want to fly with scoot..

SQ would be the best bet I reckon. Easier with KF points
SQ256/SQ452

BNE-SIN: A350-900
SIN-MLE: A330

SilkAir (MI) also plies that route but it’s a 737-800

Just be careful with KF website. Any SQ flight number starting with 54xx (4 numbers) is likely an SQ codeshare = MI operated flight.

Book BNE-MLE on KF (as though flying there without stopover) then add a SIN stopover for $100 by calling SQ.

The other way is slightly longer and involve Sri Lankan (UL) Airlines.
QF: BNE-SIN
UL: SIN-CMB-MLE

Or
MH: BNE-KUL
UL/MH: KUL-CMB-MLE (but these are 737/A320)

Thank you so much, Quickstatus.

Because SQ and NH are in *A, would you be happy to use SQ KF on sector, and ANA's MC program on the other?
This would allow you to use up points on the 2, if you don't have enough on one/for one.
AMEX might be able to utilise for one seat, one way or return if you have enough points for that.
All depends on how many points you have in each individual program.
If you want to, you could use QF for the trip up to SIN, and *A points the way from SIN to MLE.
A lot of options, I know, also too much of my waffly.
Ps, you probably mean award seats, don't you?

Sorry should have added MH used to operate KUL-MLE non stop. I don’t think it currently operates a non stop.
