Singapore Airlines and Scoot KrisFlyer award prices by route

Here are our quick reference tools and tables showing how many miles you need to redeem flights on Singapore Airlines and Scoot, listed by city and cabin class.

All rates are one-way, to or from Singapore, per person. Planning a return trip? Flick the ‘Show round-trip rates’ switch and the figures double automatically – each table has its own switch as well.

Rates are only shown for cabins actually operating on a specific route (e.g. Singapore to Perth – Economy and Business Class rates only, as no aircraft on this route have a Premium Economy or First Class cabin installed). In this sense the tool and tables also act as a quick reference guide for the routes you can redeem Premium Economy and First Class tickets on (there aren’t that many).

Our First Class seats by route page also provides this information, including the seat (or suite) types themselves.

Look up the miles for your route

Choose Singapore Airlines or Scoot, then pick your route from the drop-down and, for SIA flights, your cabin class.

KrisFlyer miles rates A-Z, to and from Singapore

Itineraries via Singapore

Remember the tool and tables above are designed to show simple routings to/from Singapore. For more complex routings transiting SIA’s hub (e.g. Perth – Singapore – Milan) it’s not a case of adding two miles rates together like it is with some other frequent flyer programmes – and that’s a good thing!

Instead you need to refer to the KrisFlyer zone-based award chart to calculate the miles requirement.

For Zone 8 to Zone 11 in this case (Perth to Europe), it’s 131,500 miles each way for a Saver Business Class award, not 151,000 miles (42,500 PER-SIN + 108,500 SIN-MXP).

Singapore Airlines and Scoot “fifth freedom” flights

Here are the same lists of award pricing for Singapore Airlines and Scoot flights that don’t operate to or from Singapore itself. On SIA, that’s Milan to Barcelona, Frankfurt to New York and Tokyo to Los Angeles. On Scoot, it’s Taipei to Seoul, Sapporo and Tokyo.

Use the airline buttons to switch between the two.

KrisFlyer award types

Here’s a quick comparison of the key differences between the three award types on Singapore Airlines flights.

KrisFlyer Award Type Comparison
Feature	Saver Award	Advantage Award	Access Award
Pricing	Fixed miles (award chart)		Dynamic (availability-based)
Availability	Limited	Moderate	Commercial inventory (last seat)
Waitlist	Yes		No
Date changes	US$25	Free	Free
Cancellation	US$75	US$50	US$50
Stopovers	R/t: 1 O/w: 0	R/t: 2 O/w: 1	R/t: 2 O/w: 1

Access awards don’t have a formal published award chart, and SIA reserves the right to change the pricing at any time.

Based on our extensive searches, though, they fall into specific rate levels depending on the cheapest commercial fare bucket on sale at the time. There’s a single level in Economy and First, two tiers in Premium Economy and four in Business Class, and our tool and tables show all of them.

We’ve covered this in more detail in our guide to Access awards – but they’re certainly not something to aim for, even though they have their use cases in certain circumstances.

Scoot redemptions are much simpler. The low-cost carrier’s fixed-price award chart has just two award types, Saver and Advantage, for Economy Class only. Advantage costs more but is usually available on more flights and closer to departure. That’s the only difference, as both share the same rules – no waitlisting or route changes, a fee for date changes, and no refunds except on medical grounds or after a schedule change of two hours or more.

Low miles rates don’t necessarily mean good value, though. Scoot’s cash fares are often cheap enough that redeeming works out poorly.

There’s also the option to sit in the Premium Economy cabin on some shorter flights where sale of cash tickets or awards in this cabin is not normally offered, including to and from Kuala Lumpur, Malé and Jakarta. See our guide on how to do this.

Once you know how many miles you need, our award release date calculator will tell you when SIA first opens award seats for your flight.
