Changes coming to Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer including award flight mileage adjustments and a new dynamic award flight option
Singapore Airlines has announced some updates to their KrisFlyer program that will take effect on November 1st. This changes include elite status point earning on select non-flight activities (not really significant for those in Canada), increases and decreases to some award chart mileage requirements and the introduction of dynamic award flight redemption to get any available seat on a flight.
Expanded elite status earning:
- PPS Club members will earn 1 PPS Value for every SGD 3 spent on Kris+ shopping and dining in Singapore and Australia, KrisShop purchases, and Pelago experiences bookings.
- KrisFlyer members will earn 1 Elite mile for every SGD 1 spent on Kris+ shopping and dining in Singapore and Australia, KrisShop purchases, and Pelago experiences bookings.
Award chart changes:
- Members will benefit from a reduction of 5% in Economy Saver award redemption rates for flights within Asia and South West Pacific (Zones 1 to 9).
- Business and First/Suites Saver award redemption rates for Zones 1 to 9 will increase by 5%.
- Saver award rates will increase by 5% across all cabin classes for flights to and from Europe and the United States of America (Zones 11 to 13). For flights to and from Africa, the Middle East, and Turkey (Zone 10), rates will rise by 10 to 20%.
- Advantage award rates across all zones and cabin classes, except for Zone 10, will increase by 10 to 15%. For Zone 10, the Economy Advantage rates will increase by 5%, the Business Advantage rates by 18%, and First Advantage rates by 15%.
Introduction of Access Redemption
- With Access redemption, you will have an added option to use your KrisFlyer miles to pay and secure confirmed Singapore Airlines flight tickets immediately on your preferred flights as long as there are available seats. The number of miles required for seat confirmation will differ based on the demand for seats and may vary throughout the year.
- Seats available for Access redemption are over and above the seats available for award flights. With the new Access redemption option, you will be able to use your miles to secure available seats on your preferred flights even if award seats are fully redeemed.
