Singapore Airlines has revealed its first post-devaluation Spontaneous Escapes deal for travel during August 2022, with the usual 30% off the KrisFlyer miles you’ll need to lock in Economy, Premium Economy and Business Class routes to selected destinations on the network.
Unfortunately the selection is quite limited this month, as travel demand continues to exceed supply in most of the airline’s markets, stifling award space and keeping fares high.
If you do find a route of interest, you’ll need to book these ‘Promo’ awards over the next two weeks – between 15th July 2022 and 31st July 2022 – for travel next month, but remember there’s no flexibility or refunds allowed.
Redemption continues to only available online at singaporeair.com, not via the mobile app, for some reason.
This is the first Spontaneous Escapes deal since the KrisFlyer award charts were devalued, with rate hikes of approximately 10% in effect for those booking from 5th July 2022 onwards.
For example a one-way Saver Business Class award from Singapore to Hanoi is now priced at 24,000 miles (this month that’s 16,800 miles under Spontaneous Escapes with a 30% discount), while in the July offer the old rate of 21,500 miles still applied (15,050 miles under Spontaneous Escapes).
Terms and conditions
Here are the terms and conditions for the Spontaneous Escapes promotion.

Book under the ‘Promo’ award category
One of the annoying things about the KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes offer pre-pandemic was that you had to select the Saver award rate for the applicable discounted flight in order to then see the discounted rate reflected.
