SQ devaluation
« on: March 01, 2017, 05:59:10 AM »
We conduct regular reviews to keep the KrisFlyer programme updated. Following a recent review, we will be making these changes:

Revisions to Saver Award levels in the Singapore Airlines and SilkAir Award Chart have been made to ensure that flight rewards remain sustainable yet competitive. We had last made adjustments to award levels in various zones in 2012.


The 15% discount for redemption and redemption upgrade bookings made through our website and mobile channels will be discontinued, and the same redemption fare will be applied across all channels.


Fuel and insurance surcharges will be removed from all redemption award tickets on Singapore Airlines and SilkAir operated flights.

The above changes and the revised Award Chart will be effective for redemption and redemption
upgrade bookings ticketed on/after 23 March 2017.

Yup. Can't find updated *A chart. Nyc-FRA May be slightly cheaper due to no YQ but otherwise it's pretty significant.

Going up from 57,300 to 76,000, would rather YQ.

And in one fell swoop has SQ been relegated to irrelevance?

 @winglets747 - Credit to SIA for saying loyalty programme changes keep it "sustainable yet competitive" - no BS about "enhancements". Pax value honesty.

Seems like they have spared the Partner chart (for the time being)
