Switzerland?
The sharp-eyed among you will notice that the promotion page for this offer only features on the Swiss version of the Singapore Airlines website. That immediately has the hallmarks of a targeted offer, designed to drive up membership for new members in a specific location.
The interesting thing is that the T’s & C’s of the offer make no mention of applicability only for certain national residents, unlike their current 100,000 miles bonanza promotion (or ‘lottery’), for example, where the valid residential countries for KrisFlyer member participants are made clear from the outset:
As you can see, the 100,000 miles bonanza KrisFlyer promo is not open, for example, to Australians, Swiss, Germans, Irish, French or Dutch residents, but it’s fine if you’re living in New Zealand, Italy, Spain or the UK. On the face of it – quite bizarre, but it actually relates to contest regulations in those countries.
With no such restrictions on this 1,000 miles sign-up promotion, you should be fine to participate and be eligible for the bonus.
