PER-EDI Bus class on Krisflyer Points 2 PAX One way.

Hi

I am planning to take my wife to Scotland next August(around 12th flex). I have 167,000 KF points available and was hoping we could go business class...first time ever!
For the return journey ex Italy somewhere I hope to use purchased AA miles when the next offer appears.
I cant find a way to get to Edinburgh SQ Zone 9-11, so unless I am missing something that someone hopefully points out for me we will have to go to say Amsterdam and then do something clever from there. Any help would be gratefully accepted and appreciated.

SQ do not fly their own planes to Scotland. So no SQ Awards to Scotland.

Closest SQ metal destinations would be Manchester or London.

Try doing some dummy bookings.


To get to Scotland bt flying via KF points you would need to redeem a *A award via SQ, but that would most likely cost you more points.

Bookings opened Aug 12 two weeks ago.

So if you want to fly in J about then you should not delay in booking as many days about then are already gone.

Aug 12 is gone already.

Aug 13 is open still.

144,500 points for 2 in J plus $1070 in fees.

Good tip...thanks.
Settled for Amsterdam on the 15th in Bus Class for 119000 plus $970 AUD.
Now waiting for AA to launch a new points purchase deal for the return flights.
