by Gary Leff

Singapore is introducing new partner award charts. Some mileage prices are going up, such as North America is being combined into a single zone rather than having West Coast separate from and at a lower price than East Coast. On the flipside, one-way awards are being introduced on most partners for 50% of the mileage price.

  1. 1. Members of Singapore Airlines (SQ) own FFP KrisFlyer (KF) may redeem Standard (costs: Two Times of Saver Award) and Full Awards in First and Business Class on B777-300ER (= 77W) flights operated by SQ. KF don’t offer Saver Awards on these airplanes (http://tinyurl.com/yjg4dj4).
    2. At least in theory you may redeem M&M Miles in First and Business Class on 77W airplanes operated by SQ. However, its hard to find availability.
    3. I recommend to earn KF miles only, if someone has the intention to redeem their KF miles on SQ operated flights.
