Flying between KUL and PEN on Malaysia in Business yield 40 British Airways Executive Club Tier Points, and costs only £50-55, which is a very attractive £1.25-1.38 per Tier Point.

If I book multiple one-way flights on the same day, between the two destinations, will I be allowed to fly?

For example:

  • MH1140 KUL-PEN 11:25-12:10
  • MH1149 PEN-KUL 15:30-16:25
  • MH1162 KUL-PEN 19:30-20:25
  • MH1165 PEN-KUL 20:55-21:50


Best Answer

Yes. There is the possibility you'll be questioned as to your motives, but in the end they're all domestic flights, so it's down to you and the airline for the transaction, and they've sold you the tickets.

Of course, the Earth might not thank you ;)

I know of a role here in Sydney which requires employees (non-airline) to fly 6 flights in a day, with flights 2, 4 and 6 returning to the same city. It's a regular feature for people on the team, and they're never prevented/questioned about it, except by the crew who can start to recognise them :)

Can you fly somewhere and back in the same day?

Same day return flights, or 'one day return flights' are flights that depart and return on the same day. Same day return flights are perfect if you're planning a day-trip or business trip to a destination that is not too far away, allowing you enough time to travel back and forth in the same day.

Can you book two flights same time?

But the answer to the question is no \u2014 it is absolutely not against the law to book two tickets for the same day on the same route.

How do you book round-trip and one way at the same time?

Book the flights required for one person, then book the second set of flights for the other person, making sure they are on the same flights (as required) for the second person. If that seems too difficult, phone the airline and tell them what you require and book with them over the phone.

Is it possible to book two one way tickets?

It's a good time to book a one way However, some airlines may only offer a one-time change per reservation. By booking two one-way tickets that are on two different reservations \u2014 instead of a single round-trip, \u2014 you may get more flexibility when it comes to taking advantage of change policies.

Answer 2

Yes. The airline is a business, they are happy to receive your repeat custom.

Your concern should be whether this is feasible: if the same aircraft is used to operate all flights, then one flight delayed will not impact the rest of your itinerary, because the subsequent flights will also be delayed. (This is called a "back-to-back" in mileage running terms.) If different aircraft are used, then one delay could scupper the rest of your itinerary.

The second problem is that the British Airways Executive Club has difficulty understanding flying the same route on the same day multiple times; i.e., you may only end up with one set of tier points. So keep your boarding passes as evidence you flew multiple times and retroclaim if needs be.

Finally be aware that if this fare books into "I" class, it will earn zero Avios and zero TP on BAEC. If it books into "Z", you are okay.

Enjoy your trip.
