November 2018 KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes

Published by

The November Spontaneous Escapes promotion list is now out! For the penultimate edition of the year, KrisFlyer is offering 30% off the usual mileage required for Economy & Business on SQ to destinations across Asia and Australia only, for travel in December 2018. For SilkAir, the destination list is slightly more generous, with 15 destinations as far as Hiroshima, Japan and Darwin, Australia. Also included in the promotion this month is January travel to USA. If you recall, Singapore Airlines came out to say earlier this month that the premium economy cabin is not selling like hot cakes on the non-stop services to USA, so I guess naturally these will come at a discount too. The price? 45,500 miles each way to Los Angeles and San Francisco, plus taxes, for travel between 1-13 January 2019. All redemptions must be made by 30 November 2018. You can find the full list on KrisFlyer’s website, but here’s what I think its most value for money: Denpasar-Bali: 12,250 miles each way in Business – good to try the new …
