Great Deal: Fly from Kuala Lumpur to Europe in Singapore Airlines Premium Economy from S$1,018

Singapore Airline is running great Premium Economy deals for flights from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to some European cities.

The deals

Find these fares by searching with flexible dates on Google Flights. These roundtrip fares can be found from September to November 2022.

Additional note: The short flights between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur will be in Economy Class.

Singapore Airlines Premium Economy seat

Although not as sexy as its Business Class seats, I found that Singapore Airlines Premium Economy seats offer a good balance between Economy and Business Class. This is mainly because of its recline angle and foot rest.

Passengers can also pre-select Book the Cook meals in Premium Economy.

Where to credit

These fares book into fare class “R”. You’ll be getting around 13,000 miles with 100% mileage accrual when crediting to Alaska Airlines, Singapore Airlines or Turkish Airlines.

I would personally choose to credit the flights to Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan for the following reasons:

• Miles expiry easily extendable with activity
• Ability to buy miles to top up existing balance
• Only costs 25,000 miles to redeem a one-way Japan Airlines Business Class flight to Japan/South Korea.
