Apologies if this has been answered already but I couldn’t find it anywhere: While I’ve seen MH’s general policy here , I wonder if this also goes if the first MH sector is booked as a One World redemption?

I’m soon going MEL-KUL, booked on MH as a QF reward ticket. Then I have about 9 hours layover in KL, followed by KUL-DOH-CDG on QR (paid ticket, all in J if that matters). I’d book some time in the airside hotel as KL if I can be sure that luggage can be checked through. However, if it won’t be and I’ll have to clear immigration anyway, I might well rather go for a cheaper/more comfortable landside accommodation option.

Any suggestions/ experience/ recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

I suppose you can only try. While that page you linked to is hardly encouraging it never hurts to ask nicely.

Seeing 10am and 8pm QR flights to DOH - presumably you are on the 10am.

I have occasionally used the Landside KLIA2 Aerotel single room - you can book 6 hours from about $60 and it is easy enough to transit there and back from KLIA1.

(Generally have use the MH Platinum lounge for shower before breakfasting there.)

Thanks a lot- that's the plan and yes, the 10am the next morning. I've never stayed at that hotel but have passed there numerous times on regional flights so at least I know the layout of this airport.
