Is it worth redeeming KrisFlyer miles for Scoot?

As covered in my deep-dive article, redeeming KrisFlyer miles for Scoot is not always worth it, as air ticket prices on budget airlines tend to be low in the first place. On top of that, when redeeming miles for Scoot flights, you’ll still have to pay airport taxes/fees.

Earning miles through credit cards is now more difficult than ever; where possible, I’m sure most miles chasers wouldn’t wanna waste all that effort on Scoot flights. That said, there are several valid reasons to redeem miles on Scoot. For example, Scoot flies to a number of cities that are not covered by Singapore Airlines (or other full-service airlines).

Scoot KrisFlyer ‘Worth It’ Calculator

I’ve prepared the following calculator for you to easily check if redeeming KrisFlyer miles for a Scoot flight is more worth it than paying the cash fare.

Please enter all 3 fields above to check the cents-per-mile value.
