KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes T&Cs

The KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes discounts apply on point-to-point flights to/from Singapore. If you’re connecting through Singapore onto another flight, you’ll also get a 30% discount if both flights in your itinerary are eligible for a Spontaneous Escapes discount.

If only one sector in a multi-sector itinerary is eligible to be discounted, the final price will be either the sum of the two individual flights or the regular price for a through-booking – whichever is lower.

KrisFlyer does not allow changes or refunds on Spontaneous Escapes award bookings.

You’ll need to book on the Singapore Airlines website and must take all flights within the promotional period to access the discount. Some blackout dates may apply and no stopovers are allowed. When booking online, the Singapore Airlines website shows discounted seats as “Promo” awards:

KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes deals are marked as Singapore Airlines Promo awards

Thanks for sharing. As always MEL is missing from the list of AU destinations :mad:, but ex-SIN some interesting options for me to consider.

I received an email from KF this afternoon and got onto it straight away.

This is the second time they have done this promotion. The last time was for travel in November 2017.

30% off = J SYD-SIN SQ252 40,600KF 17–30 Nov 2017

Getting a discount on J redemptions is great value...

Very good discounts, makes it more than enticing for a short getaway to Singapore.

Just squeezed in a CGK - SYD J redemption for 45,000 before it closed. Wasn't planning on heading to Jakarta for a long weekend but I suppose one spontaneous gesture deserves another...

Looks like the first of the new post devaluation Spontaneous Escapes are up for bookings in March 2019

20K in J to SIN from Perth is good value but limited options. MEL & SYD are 28K each way.

Lot's of pretty cheap Y redemptions to a range of destinations.

PER to Europe for 21,500 KF seems good value (not that I plan on taking long haul Y)

A question: we redeemed points (months ago) for return trip SIN-SYD in Y this May. Now we see this new promo and would like to cancel the Y trip in May for J trip in March.
1. Is there any penalty in cancelling an award trip?
2. Do the points get redeposited and taxes refunded, before we can book a new award trip? Or, can the dates and cabin class be changed for an award booking?
3. Can we do this online? Or, do we have to call SQ? We are in the UK, so do we call the UK office or SQ office in Singapore?
Sorry, am a bit green with SQ program. Any reply would be appreciated. TIA.

I recently changed the date for the same route on a reward trip. Although the route was the same I switched from a saver to an advantage fare so there were more miles to pay.
I kept the same PNR. The fee was USD 25.
I usually Skype the SIN office by calling my local office. As you are in the UK you could try calling the UK office.
