Spontaneous Escapes routes

Here are the Spontaneous Escapes routes available for booking by the end of this month, for travels next month. Miles shown are for one-way redemptions, with the 30% award discount factored in.

💡 Tap on the little icons to view the blackout periods and flight numbers of each route.

South East Asia

These are regional routes to/from cities in Southeast Asia, covering Zones 1, 2 and 3 in KrisFlyer’s award chart.

Due to the short flight distances and competitive cash fares from other airlines, these routes typically do not offer great value for your miles, even with a 30% award discount.

North Asia

These are routes to/from cities in North/East Asia, covering Zones 4, 5 and 7 in KrisFlyer’s award chart. This includes cities in Japan, South Korea, Mainland China, Taiwan and Hong Kong.

As compared to other FFPs, KrisFlyer does not offer good award rates to/from Japan and South Korea, even with a 30% award discount.

However, flights to/from Mainland China offer fantastic value, and I see them as KrisFlyer’s sweet spots (marked in green below).
