Which is a shame because the MH regional product is quite good, full service, always pushes back on time and generally have great crew. Connections through KLIA intra-Asia are vast and convenient. This is a Oneworld relationship Qantas and indeed Emirates should be exploiting much more instead of dumping people onto no-frills Jetstar for intra-Asian flights connecting through SIN.

It is certainly value for money, particularly in Business for elite status accrual purposes.
But I wouldn't go as far as saying the product is good. Crappy food and beverage - the KUL inflight caterers they use is rubbish. 737-800 that is past its prime - Cabin interiors look shabby. Yes the crew is consistently poised and professional, but I would not fly MH and spend money in Business class if not for the OW alliance.
Flew to Malaysia last year, on Malaysian Airlines flight. No points credited, and no explanation from Qantas Frequent Flyer once I contacted them your an explanation. Painful

I had no problems with my last two MH flights SC and points posted in 7 days
