KrisFlyer Redemption Sale: 10-15% off Economy and Premium Economy awards

Singapore Airlines is back with its regular Global Redemption Sale for those making travel plans from November 2026 to May 2027, with 15% off most Economy Class Saver award tickets and selected Premium Economy Class award tickets, when you book using KrisFlyer miles over the next two weeks.

This allows you to redeem SIA Economy Class flights from 6,800 miles on the shortest routes, and Premium Economy Class flights to and from the USA starting at 67,150 miles.

The deal isn’t as strong as September 2024’s offer, which boasted a 25% discount and included some Business Class awards, nor does it match the more recent September 2025 or March 2026 deal, both of which offered 20% off, but nonetheless it does represent a good way to lock in future redemptions with at least some discount.

The catch? These ‘Promo’ awards are subject to the usual ‘no refund, no cancellation’ terms we’ve come to know with the carrier’s monthly Spontaneous Escapes deal – so you’ll need to be pretty sure of your travel plans up to eight months in advance in some cases, in order to commit.

Selected Scoot awards in Economy Class are also part of the promotion this time round, but at a smaller 10% discount, though this provides the lowest redemption rates starting at just 1,350 miles.

KrisFlyer Global Redemption Sale

Here’s how this year’s redemption promotion works.

The key here is the non-changeable and non-refundable nature of these Promo awards, but for those who have firm travel plans, the deal could prove useful for locking in a trip between November 2026 and May 2027.

Additionally, there are general blackout periods for the whole promotion based on travel class, as outlined above, plus some additional blackout periods on selected routes, which we outline in our detailed tables below.

Full details of the offer for Singapore Airlines flights are available here, while the Scoot details are available here.

Premium Economy Class deals

For Premium Economy Class, Singapore Airlines is offering a 15% discount for travel between 1st November 2026 and 31st May 2027 on the following Saver awards.

Economy Class deals

The Global Redemption Sale is arguably most generous for travel in Economy Class.

In this cabin, Singapore Airlines is offering a 15% redemption discount on Saver awards to and from most destinations, for travel between 1st November 2026 and 31st May 2027, though some blackout dates and specific flight numbers apply route-by-route.

That means awards start from as little as 6,800 miles, for Singapore – KL and Singapore – Bali flights, for example.

Here’s how many miles the redemptions will price at by route, based on one-way travel or from Singapore, with blackout dates also shown, where applicable.

The nice thing about this deal is that it works almost network-wide, so you’re not necessarily restricted to a redemption purely to or from Singapore.

For example, those redeeming from Melbourne to London via Singapore will also see a 15% discount reflected.

As you can see in this example, the usual Economy Saver award rate of 63,000 miles is replaced with a 53,550 miles deal (15% off), on selected flights.

The route list has also been reshuffled since March’s sale, and not entirely for the worse.

Out: Johannesburg and Auckland, both of which featured in the March 2026 promotion, are absent this time – meaning no African or New Zealand destinations at all.

In: Sapporo, Hangzhou, Rome, Madrid, Dubai, Riyadh and Western Sydney are all new additions, along with two fifth freedom sectors.

No more mySQupgrade for award tickets

Heads up – please don’t book these deals hoping to get an upgrade offer within 72 hours of your departure time.

Singapore Airlines removed all award tickets and selected cheaper Economy Class and Premium Economy Class cash fares from mySQupgrade eligibility nearly three years ago.

That’s made mySQupgrade exclusive to more expensive cash fares only, since late 2023.

How this compares to last year

A 15% discount is the weakest this promotion has ever been, and it’s now the sixth outing since Singapore Airlines launched the concept in October 2023.

• October 2023: 25% off Economy, selected Premium Economy
• September 2024: 25% off Economy, selected Premium Economy, some Business Class
• March 2025: 20% off Economy, selected Premium Economy
• September 2025: 20% off Economy, selected Premium Economy
• March 2026: 20% off Economy, selected Premium Economy
• September 2026: 15% off selected Economy, selected Premium Economy, plus 10% off Scoot

The headline discount is only half the story though. Since last September’s sale, KrisFlyer award rates themselves have increased on precisely the routes where a discount matters most, following November 2025’s devaluation. A smaller discount applied to a higher base rate means some of these ‘deals’ are now materially worse than the same redemption twelve months ago.

Route	Sep 2025 Deal	Sep 2026 Deal	Change
Singapore – Europe Economy	33,600	37,400	+3,800
Singapore – US West Coast Economy	33,600	37,400	+3,800
Singapore – San Francisco Premium Economy	60,000	67,150	+7,150
Singapore – New York Premium Economy	64,400	71,825	+7,425
Singapore – Kuala Lumpur Economy	6,800	6,800	No change

Singapore to London in Economy Class, for instance, cost 33,600 miles in last September’s sale. Today the identical redemption is 37,400 miles – 3,800 miles more.

The Premium Economy comparison is the starkest – SQ34 to San Francisco was 60,000 miles in last September’s sale and is 67,150 miles today, a 7,150-mile increase on an identical flight, not to mention being more heavily blacked out than a year ago.

There is one silver lining, shown in the final row above.

Short-haul Economy Saver rates in Asia actually fell in the November 2025 devaluation, which almost exactly cancels out the smaller discount. Singapore – Kuala Lumpur prices at 6,800 miles in this sale, precisely what it cost in the September 2025 sale, when the discount was 20% but the base rate was 8,500 miles rather than today’s 8,000 miles.

Scoot deals

Scoot is participating in the KrisFlyer Global Redemption Sale for the first time in this round, but is only offering 10% off its Saver Economy Class award rates.

That’s the smallest discount on offer here, though Scoot fliers do have one thing going for them – the airline’s fixed award chart, launched in August 2025, was left untouched in last November’s KrisFlyer devaluation.

Rates start from just 1,350 miles one-way for the short hops to Ipoh, Malacca, Kuala Lumpur and Langkawi, rising to 21,600 miles for Vienna and Athens – making these comfortably the cheapest awards in the entire promotion.

A few important terms apply on the Scoot side:

• Award flights are available in Economy Class only. ScootPlus awards are not offered, and you can’t redeem miles to upgrade into ScootPlus either.
• Scoot flights to Jeddah are currently not available for redemption at all.
• Bookings must be made at flyscoot.com or via the Scoot mobile app. Unlike the Singapore Airlines side of this deal, you can’t book these through KrisFlyer Membership Services or SIA Reservations and Ticketing offices.
• These tickets are non-refundable, non-transferable and cannot be cancelled – though unlike the Singapore Airlines side, that’s no different from a standard Scoot award redemption, so you’re not giving up any flexibility you’d otherwise have.
• Taxes, surcharges and fees are payable on top of the miles rate, and the 10% discount doesn’t apply to those – nor to any add-ons like baggage, seat selection or meals, which are also charged separately.

Here’s how the Scoot redemptions price by route, based on one-way travel, with blackout dates also shown.

Standby for October 2026 Spontaneous Escapes

To be clear, this promotion doesn’t replace Spontaneous Escapes.

For those looking to snag an award discount for short-term travel, Singapore Airlines will still be offering its regular 30% redemption discount on Saver awards to and from selected destinations on the network for travel in October 2026, while Scoot will offer 15% off its Saver Economy awards.

This deal is due to be launched in mid September, so look out for this one next week if you’ve got an October trip in mind.

Singapore Airlines is once again offering its Global Redemption Sale, but this time with only 15% off Saver awards in Economy Class to and from most destinations, selected Premium Economy Class routings, and 10% off selected Scoot awards for travel between 1st November 2026 and 31st May 2027.

The offer has become progressively less generous over the last couple of years, with 25% and 20% discounts seen in the past.

Sadly there are no Business Class deals included, and Johannesburg and Auckland have both dropped out of the Economy Class list since March, plus a range of blackout periods. Nonetheless, this is a good opportunity to get a discount for future travel plans.

The big caveat – you’ll have to be able to book in the next two weeks and have firm travel plans, since these ‘Promo’ rates, while attractive on paper, are not refundable.
