KrisFlyer releases Spontaneous Escapes 30% miles discounts for July

EXPIRED This article relates to an offer or promotion which has now expired.

The latest Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer ‘Spontaneous Escapes’ list for discounted award redemption tickets in July 2018 has been released. You’ll have to book before 30th June 2018 to be eligible for the discounted rates.

What is ‘Spontaneous Escapes’

Now a regular fixture on the calendar of KrisFlyer miles earners, the monthly ‘Spontaneous Escapes’ promotion offers discounts on ‘Saver’ award tickets and is generally only available in Economy Class and Business Class on Singapore Airlines and SilkAir flights.

There’s the relatively standard 30% off saver awards, occasional 40% discount offers and a 50% saving which did appear on a single route earlier this year.

The ‘Spontaneous Escapes’ promotion is normally announced around mid-month for promotions in the following calendar month. Offers for July are no exception – with the 30% discount offer on selected routes having been released earlier today. That means two weeks left to search and book at this discounted rate.

Best deals this month

Discounts are applicable for 57 Singapore Airlines and SilkAir destinations for most dates in July. As always there are some blackout dates and specific flight numbers on certain routes. You can see the full listing in the tables below, now including aircraft type information and for business class even the seat type.

Singapore to Frankfurt flights on the 777-300ER (SQ326) feature this month in both Economy and Business Class, with lots of connection options to the rest of Europe from there it’s great value at 59,500 miles in Business Class.

Sadly return options from Europe are not available this month, this probably coincides with the start of European school summer holiday season.

Remember the trick, book one-ways and you can still take advantage of the discount on the first flight. As soon as you book a return with a sector not included in the offer you’ll pay the normal saver rate for the whole itinerary.

Once again Hong Kong flights have 30% off this month with selected services featuring the A380 Version 3 and the latest 2017 business class seats. Look out for flight SQ856 running daily on the SIN-HKG route and SQ861 on HKG-SIN for 19,250 miles each way throughout July. It’s a cheap way to try out these new Business Class seats for about 4 hours.

We reviewed the new 2017 J seat in January – it’s probably one of the best long-haul business class products currently on the market.

With the discount on these flights based on a 30% saving the higher the original miles cost the more miles you save. Singapore to Dusseldorf in Business Class is the regular fixture to Europe and features once again this month – a saving of 25,500 miles each way compared to the usual saver redemption.

Johannesburg is also offered this month – already a great value redemption at saver rates this 9-hour flight on the A350 with the 2013 J seats will set you back just 31,500 miles under this offer.

For Australia and New Zealand there are a number of cities included in both Economy and Business Class this month, including Wellington, Brisbane, Sydney, Adelaide and Perth. Melbourne is sadly missing once again. The longer flights in this zone save 17,400 miles each way in Business Class on the usual saver redemption cost.

New Regional Business Class

Last month there were sadly no opportunities to fly the new 2018 RJ business class seats under the Spontaneous Escapes offer, but for July both Bangkok and Osaka are included at 30% off regular saver rates.

Perth to Singapore flights are also discounted to 22,750 miles in Business Class between 13th July – 31st July on the SQ216 which is flown by the 787-10, though there are no discounts offered on 787s flying southbound flights on the same route during July.

At the tail end of the month after 28th July you can also pick up a 30% discount on the 787-10 as it commences Nagoya flights.

Osaka is a great deal at 30,100 miles each way (compared to 43,000 miles usually). Look out for SQ622 to Osaka and both SQ619 and SQ623 on the way back.

Unfortunately other 787-10 routes like Bali and Manila don’t feature this month, but if you’re still interested in a normal price redemption to try out this brand new seat see our 2018 RJ Tracker page for all the route details.
