Singapore Airlines has announced upcoming changes to its KrisFlyer loyalty program, set to take effect on November 1, 2025. The airline will increase the number of miles required for award bookings across its own flights, Star Alliance partner flights, and cabin upgrades.
The changes mean that booking a flight using KrisFlyer miles will soon cost more for most routes. For Singapore Airlines-operated flights, members will see up to a 20% rise in points needed for some bookings. The largest increases affect Advantage awards, which offer more flexibility than Saver awards but now come with higher redemption rates.
A detailed breakdown shows that Saver redemptions within Asia and the Southwest Pacific will see a 5% decrease in economy class but a 5% increase in business and first class. Saver redemptions to Europe and the U.S. will go up by 5% across all classes. Flights to Africa, the Middle East, and Turkey will experience increases between 10% and 20%. Advantage awards are also rising: economy class in Zone 10 goes up by 5%, business class by 18%, first class by 15%, while other zones see increases of between 10% and 15%.
