This month, Singapore Airlines has also brought back its Global Redemption Sale for the first time since last fall, which offers 25% off select flights across the airline’s network in various classes of service.
In the middle of each month, Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer also releases its Spontaneous Escapes promotion, which offers 30% off select Saver-level Singapore Airlines flights.
Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer Global Redemption Sale
Singapore Airlines has brought back the KrisFlyer Global Redemption Sale, which offers 25% off select award flights in various classes of service.
The 25% discount applies to all economy Singapore Airlines Saver-level awards, as well as to select destinations in its network for premium economy and business class.
To be clear, the discount doesn’t apply to First Class or Suites Class awards, nor does it apply to Advantage-level awards.
Furthermore, the 25% discount only applies to flights operated by Singapore Airlines, and not on other partner airlines. You may not waitlist for a discounted award with this promotion.
Award flights must be booked from September 9–22, 2024, and are valid for flights from January 15–May 29, 2025, with some blackout dates. The full list of blackout periods can be found on the Singapore Airlines website.
The 25% discount offered through the Global Redemption Sale applies to Saver-level premium economy awards to the following destinations:
- Istanbul (IST): both directions
- San Francisco (SFO): both directions
- Singapore (SIN)–New York (JFK)
- Newark (EWR)–Singapore (SIN)
Business class redemptions are only available on select routes in South East Asia, West Asia, and Africa.
No registration is required for this offer, and importantly, flights can’t be changed or cancelled once booked.
You’ll know that a flight has a 25% discount baked in, as it’ll appear under the Promo column in the search results.
How to Earn Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer Miles
As a reminder, Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer miles can be earned by converting any of the following transferable points currencies:
- Amex US Membership Rewards at a 1:1 rate
- Chase Ultimate Rewards at a 1:1 rate
- Citi ThankYou Rewards at a 1:1 rate
- Capital One Miles at a 1:1 rate
- Marriott Bonvoy at a 60,000:25,000 rate
As is always the case, it’s best to make sure that there’s award availability on your selected dates prior to moving points around. This way, you won’t be disappointed if you move points and then don’t have an optimal way to redeem them.
It’s worth noting that transfers from Capital One Miles are typically instant, while other transfers from US bank partners are usually completed within a day.
If you’re converting Marriott Bonvoy points into KrisFlyer miles, you can expect the transfer to take up to a week; however, in practice, it might happen sooner.
Conclusion
Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer has launched the Global Redemption Sale promotion, through which you can save 25% on Saver-level economy flights worldwide, as well as select premium economy and business class flights.
Flights must be booked between September 9–22, 2024, for travel from January 15–May 29, 2025.
Availability for flights is quite good across the board, so if you can take advantage of the reduced award costs, be sure to lock in a booking before the promotion ends.
