Singapore Airlines have unveiled its offerings for the March edition of Spontaneous Escapes, with 55 destinations on sale.
Surprisingly for a school holiday month, there seems to be a bumper crop of destinations on offer, although there are also plenty of restrictions. One possible reason for the extraordinary availability could be Covid-19, although China is (obviously) not on offer at all.
The promotional mileage is 30% off the usual redemption rates, down from the one-off 51% discount last month.
As usual, bookings must be made by 29 February 2020, for travel between 1 to 31 March 2020, barring blackout dates.
What is good this month?
If you still dare to travel in the month of March, you can consider the following:
- Barcelona, Dusseldorf, Rome and Zurich are all available in Business Class available at 64,400 miles plus taxes.
- San Francisco on SQ1/2, going at 66,500 miles each way. Note that SQ1/2 will be operating non-stop to/from SFO between 17 Feb and 28 Mar to avoid Hong Kong.
