And you’ve also realised that you don’t have enough miles to redeem a flight for your next epic vacation. Is there no way to fly, and are those hard-earned miles all going to waste?
Fret not – no matter your lifestyle needs, we’ve got you covered with our guide below.
You might not have enough miles to redeem a flight ticket, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t fly! You can mix your miles with cash to reduce the cost of your ticket on Singapore Airlines or Scoot – with a minimum of 1,050 KrisFlyer miles – perfect if you have expiring miles near a special occasion or holiday!
Jetting off on a holiday to shop till you drop? You can also use your KrisFlyer miles to pre-purchase additional baggage allowance.
And if you’re saving it all for a good deal, be sure to keep your eyes peeled for monthly Spontaneous Escapes deals. These are released in the middle of every month, and you might just score yourself a 30% (and sometimes more!) discount off the miles that you’d typically need to redeem a flight. From 5,950 KrisFlyer miles, you could be on a spontaneous getaway to Bali for that much-needed wellness getaway.
The destinations that are featured differ every month, so follow KrisFlyer on Facebook or Instagram to be the first to find out which destinations are up for grabs.
From food and walking tours to high-adrenaline activities and craft workshops, Pelago, the travel experiences platform of Singapore Airlines has plenty on offer.
Simply take your pick from the wide range of experiences available and redeem with your expiring miles. Do note that only full miles redemption is allowed on Pelago.
