How To Earn Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer Miles
There are numerous ways in which you can earn KrisFlyer miles:
- Earn when you fly Singapore Airlines or partner airlines
- Earn by using co-branded credit cards
- Earn when you stay at the hotel or rent a car
- Earn through online shopping portals
Although earning from a credit card is the fastest way to grab a large number of miles, for those who do not have a credit card yet, flying Singapore Airlines or Star Alliance partners will let you earn a large number of miles too.
Summary
Through April 30, 2023, the Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer program launched a ‘Spontaneous Escape’ sale where you can book 30% off an award seat on either Economy, Premium Economy or Business Class on select routes.
Since Singapore Airlines restrict partner award availabilities on premium class, this is a great offer to take advantage of for those who have travel plans between May 1 through May 31, 2023, as some routes have good deals.
