Singapore Airlines has just released its latest KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes promotion for discounted award bookings on select Singapore Airlines flights worldwide. Book using KrisFlyer miles until April 30, 2024 to score a 30% discount for travel on select flights from May 1–31, 2024.
This time around, there are deals in economy, premium economy, and business class to a number of destinations throughout its Asian and South Pacific networks, as well as opportunities to fly premium economy and business class to North America and Europe.
What Are KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes?
KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes are promotional discounts on Singapore Airlines flights that offer reduced KrisFlyer redemptions on select routes. The class of service and destinations available through the promotion differ each time, and are subject to a number of conditions.
Spontaneous Escapes must be booked during a specified period of time, and are eligible for a limited period of travel. This time, you have until April 30, 2024 to book, and from May 1–31, 2024 to travel, with some blackout dates throughout the month.
Spontaneous Escapes are valid for redemptions on Singapore Airlines flights booked through singaporeair.com or through the app.
The discounts aren’t applicable to Singapore Airlines flights through other loyalty programs, such as Aeroplan, or with codeshare flights through KrisFlyer.
There are a limited number of seats available with promotional pricing, which are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Spontaneous Escapes can’t be changed or cancelled once booked, so you’ll want to be sure that you’re able to travel on the ticket once it’s confirmed.
Lastly, Spontaneous Escapes are valid on one-way and round-trip bookings; however, no stopovers are permitted, and waitlist redemptions aren’t allowed.
The full list of terms and conditions may be found on the KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes website.
KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes for May 2024
This month’s list of Spontaneous Escapes this time is quite extensive once again, and covers destinations across Singapore Airlines’s vast network.
On many routes between Singapore and Europe, Asia, Oceania, and North America, you can score a 30% discount on KrisFlyer redemptions in economy, premium economy, or business class, depending on the destination.
The full list of destinations can be found on the KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes website. In many cases, the deals are linked to specific flight numbers or directions of travel, and may be subject to blackout dates, so you’ll want to give the list a close read if you’re planning on taking advantage of the promotion.
During the month of May, you can fly between Singapore and Hong Kong in business class for 23,800 KrisFlyer miles.
There are deals to cities across West Asia this time around, with business class flights between Singapore and Ahmedabad, Colombo, Dhaka, Hyderabad, New Delhi, and Malé available for just 30,100 KrisFlyer miles.
If you’re looking to fly from Singapore to Cairns for some time on the Great Barrier Reef, you can book a flight in business class for 47,950 KrisFlyer miles.
Once again, the most interesting Spontaneous Escapes offer this month for North Americans is for the fifth freedom business class flights between Frankfurt and New York (JFK), which can cost as little as 56,700 miles. That’s a great price for almost nine hours in the comfort of Singapore Airlines business class.
When it comes to other North American routes, you’ll be limited to flying in premium economy with this month’s Spontaneous Escapes.
For example, you can fly from Frankfurt to New York (JFK) for 36,400 KrisFlyer miles in premium economy.
Or, you can fly from Singapore to Los Angeles in premium economy for 52,500 miles.
There are also premium economy Spontaneous Escapes deals for flights across Asia, Europe, and the South Pacific.
There’s no registration required for this promotion, and you simply complete an award booking through the Singapore Airlines website as you normally would. Just sign in to your account, and make sure to select “Redeem miles” before you begin your search.
You’ll need to keep an eye out for flights that price out according to the Spontaneous Escapes charts, as there is limited availability with the 30% discount. It’s pretty easy to spot, though, as the word “Promo” is clearly displayed in the results.
Spotting the deals is easy, since the lowest prices for each day appear in week-long chunks at the top of the search results.
How to Earn Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer Miles
As always, you can transfer Marriott Bonvoy points to KrisFlyer miles at the optimal ratio of 60,000 points = 25,000 miles. Otherwise, you’ll have to look south of the border to US-issued credit cards to earn KrisFlyer miles.
Luckily, KrisFlyer is a transfer partner of all major US banks at a 1:1 ratio, including American Express US Membership Rewards, Citi ThankYou Rewards, Chase Ultimate Rewards, and Capital One Miles.
Therefore, a redemption through KrisFlyer should be well within the reach of anyone with access to the lucrative US credit card scene, or with a healthy balance in their Marriott Bonvoy account.
Conclusion
Singapore Airlines has released its latest KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes promotion, valid for bookings made until April 30, 2024 for travel from May 1–31, 2024.
There are some great opportunities to score a Singapore Airlines flight in economy, premium economy, or business class this month to destinations in Asia, Oceania, Europe, and North America.
Be sure to lock in a booking through the promotion sooner than later, as seats are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
