My wife died suddenly on 31 January after a short illness. We have booked on Singapore Airlines to travel to UK on 19 May and return in August. I have searched their webpage to find how to advise them and request a refund on her return ticket only and retaining mine. I am unable to find a phone number that actually gives me an option of speaking to someone about this matter.
Can someone help?

My deepest condolences @Yearlylonghaul

This is a number that you can try

+61 2 7209 4388
 
I think finally have got agreement from Singapore Airlines to refund the value of my deceased wife's fully paid ticket. It has been a saga of repeating the same information in an ongoing email chain, but it looks like it is finally in place. But warned it would be a 6 week wait for the refund to appear.
 
I'm glad you (almost) have a resolution, and I am very sorry you had so much horrible bureaucratic process to go through to get there. Honestly, it's bad enough at any time, but when recently bereaved it must be even worse.

I hope you are doing OK.

If the form doesnt work, you can try calling the usual line as well. All the best

So sorry for your loss.
 
I am relieved for you that the matter has been almost fully resolved, what an ordeal for you at this this sad time.

And unnecessary. Emirates will immediately refund in full if there is a death of the travelling party. Much more appropriate and compassionate.
