*The required mileage for MU free ticket
award is calculated between two points basis. If the itinerary
includes a stopover or transfer, the mileage required must
be added together. Example: passenger flies from HongKong
to Shanghai, transfers to Chongqing on Economy class round-trip
ticket. Assuming that neither flight involves blackout dates,
it needs 40,000 miles for a round-trip ticket between Hong-Kong
and Shanghai, and another 40,000 miles for a round-trip
ticket between Shanghai and Chongqing, therefore, the total
mileage required for the round-trip in the journey from
HongKong to Chongqing via Shanghai would be 80,000 miles.
