Singapore Airlines will automatically apply the discount during the booking process. You can fly onward to other destinations included on Spontaneous Escapes, and both legs will be discounted.

However, if you book a non-Spontaneous Escapes flight, you may be required to pay two different award types – one discounted and one at full price.

Singapore Airlines operates a myriad of seat types on its Australian flights. Since specific flight numbers are included in these promotions, you’ll want to verify them against the seat types outlined in this guide.

Is Spontaneous Escapes a good deal?

KrisFlyer miles are one of the more valuable mileage programs for us in Australia. While Economy Class redemptions are also offered on sale during these promotions, we usually focus on their Business (and First) Class redemptions as being ‘the deal’.

This deal makes sense for those with the flexibility to travel at short notice and who want to maximise the value of their KrisFlyer miles balance. A sweetener is that KrisFlyer does not add fuel surcharges to award tickets for travel on Singapore Airlines.

Taxes are around AU$100 departing Australia – it’s even less flying home. In contrast, Emirates increased its carrier charges by more than three times (from $452 to $1,700+ in one example). So your savings will certainly be better off with a KrisFlyer reward.

Singapore Airlines’ long-haul Business Class seat is great for work and sleep.

This promotion runs monthly, with the list of destinations for the following month released around the 16-19th of the month before, e.g. 16-19 August for travel in September.

You can’t use Velocity Points to book Spontaneous Escapes fares directly, but you can convert Velocity Points to KrisFlyer miles if you desire.

Are Spontaneous Escapes bookings flexible?

Unfortunately not. Spontaneous Escapes redemptions cannot usually be changed or refunded. As such, make sure you firm up your travel plans before booking.

  1. Log in to your KrisFlyer account with your membership number and PIN.
  2. Select Book a Flight on your dashboard.
  3. Click Redeem flights and select your travel details.
  4. Look for ‘Promo’ availability.

  1. Hi Brandon
    Rang velocity Pam on the 19th to say no website access to do transfer. After about 15 mins she agreed to do manual transfer at no cost but 2 days later still not in Kris flyer account…have sent follow up email

    1. Hi Joy, thanks for bringing this to my attention! Looks like I had switched the redemption values for Cairns and Darwin. The guide has now been updated with the correct figures.

  2. Morning all PH folks: This seems a bit curious to this novice, but may help fill someone’s requirements.
    Hot to trot on today’s high-hype Spontaneous Escape (SE) launch: the general release doesn’t yet appear to be out, including on MileLion, mentioned by Matt previously.
    BUT THIS IS: https://www.singaporeair.com/en_UK/au/plan-travel/local-promotions/australia/krisflyer/spontaneous-escapes/discounted-redemption-award-flights-promotion/.
    Certainly, it speaks of travel next month, bookable from today and states it’s SE. Here, journeys are ex Australia, as distinct from ex Singapore to everywhere or vice versa. That’s new/different, I think?? Wonder if big empty space on webpage says there’s a glitch? Love to hear more seasoned commentary.

  3. Matt,

    How do you get alerted to these sorts of offers from SingAir? I am signed up to receive emails from them about promos, etc, but didn’t get anything about this promo for last month and nothing again for April. I was very disappointed about March as I would have utilised it. And once again, nothing from them re April.

    I made several calls to them about this; they eventually stated that they had sent an email near the end of Feb but of course they didn’t actually have it in front of them and couldn’t resend it to me. Makes me wonder.

    Are YOU guys receivng email alerts about this? Or do you simply scan their website eveyday? Surely not! Cheers, thanks.

    1. We/I do not receive notifications about this from KrisFlyer. I read Singapore-based blog The MileLion to get updates on this promotion as he posts every month.

  4. Hi Matt.

    I currently have 120K Krisflyer miles and wanted to fly back to melbourne from europe in september with my partner.

    Do you happen to know if any places in europe are cheaper/better when flying singapore?

    Thanks!

    1. Europe is classified as one zone (Zone 11), so there’ll be no difference in the mileage cost.

      However, to reduce the taxes and fees, try to avoid departing from London, Paris or Frankfurt. More on that here.

  5. What is the flight number for the A380 out of Melbourne with the newer fitout?

    I’m planning to fly out in august, would love to get on the newer fitout if I can!

    1. The new fitout is flying to/from Sydney as the only Australian destination at this stage (along with London and Hong Kong).

  6. Hi Matt
    Just wondering if you know when you can book kris flyer tickets – I was hoping to book a departure for next Dec 2018/return Jan 2019? I was looking for Europe tickets.
    Also, do you have any indicaiton if I book the Perth to Auckland route on the existing rewards chart – if that will be refundable if I need to cancel? That is not a current special – just they are about to change the required points.
    thanks

    1. Hi Sally, the KrisFlyer award calendar opens up ~355 days before departure. And, yes, the award will still be refundable, however, if you make changes to the existing booking or make a new booking, then they will be recalculated at the new price.

  7. Hi Matt

    Thank you for the info.
    I think is this very bad. I understand no changes to dates but non refundable that’s is really not appectable. They should make clear while ending the booking. I am used to SQ points are all changeable or refundable.
    In any case they allowed the change after long request on the phone.

    This is warning to all.

    Thanks
    Andy

  8. I have booked the discount fare Sydney to Hong Kong. But I had to cancel. I called SQ now they will be is non refundable? I never seen it anywhere?
    Any idea?

    1. It is under the terms and conditions:

      “Any change is strictly not permitted for bookings made under this promotion.”

      We hadn’t seen that before and I’m sorry you didn’t know that beforehand. I’ve added in a note in this post to warn readers from now on.

  9. I’m seeing the normal prices Melbourne to Singapore and return (58K each way) on the booking page. Believe I’m using the correct dates and flight numbers. Do I need to proceed further in the booking process for the discount to show? Points are currently in Velocity so don’t want to transfer if no discounts left.

    1. It sounds like you need to just make one more click. In the grid with all the available flights (waitlist or not), the regular price is shown, however, once you click on an eligible flight number and date, the Booking Summary box in the top right-hand corner should show the reduced price automatically.

      I’ve also added in some more information about the eligible flight numbers, aircraft and differences in product under ‘Offer details’.

      Let me know if you have any more issues!

      1. Hi Matt, thank you. I just tried as one way bookings for the same flights and it shows me the discount immediately in the booking summary box. All good 😀

    1. No, they won’t refund the difference on an existing booking. Cancelling that booking and making a new run runs the risk of the award seat being snapped up in the meantime as, in my experience, KrisFlyer miles can take up to a week to be refunded. So I would say stick with what you’ve got now and keep an eye out for future promotions every quarter or so.

  10. Some destinations have restricted dates, like 17-30 November for Sydney and Melbourne, and 4-6 November for Paris. Presumably, that is because flights on those dates are quite empty.

    For SQ says blackout period is on these dates. 17-30 Nov. But you say those dates are quite empty?
