If youโve been following the news lately, youโll know that KrisFlyer has carried out several devaluations in the course of the past few months. In January, we saw award prices go up for SQ/MI awards, and in March, the Star Alliance and partner charts got adjusted upwards too.
The silver lining to all this is that even with the devaluations, some of the better value in the program still remains untouched. The only question is, how do you unlock it? Thatโs where Advanced KrisFlyer comes in.
Iโm pleased to announce that another session of Advanced KrisFlyer is now available. Hereโs the details:
Date: Saturday, 20 April 2019
Time: 10 am- 12.30pm (light refreshments served from 9.30am)

Course Outline
Round the World Awards
Round the World Awards are arguably one of the most aspirational airline awards to redeem. Imagine flying around the world, city hopping and trying different cabin products, all while saving a huge chunk of miles.
Thatโs in theory, at least. Planning, finding and booking a Round the World Award is easier said than done. During Advanced KrisFlyer, weโll go through the rules in great detail, and illustrate how you can use this award to plan a once-in-a-lifetime trip.
Partner Awards
You may already know that you can redeem your KrisFlyer miles for more than just Singapore Airlines flights, but do you know what flights you should be redeeming your miles for?
During Advanced KrisFlyer weโll deep dive into all of KrisFlyerโs partner award charts to find the hidden gems. Weโll show you which chart to use when youโre heading where, and how to plan, find and book these partner awards.
Stopovers
Everyoneโs probably heard of stopovers, but do you know how to use them to stretch your miles? Stopovers are one of the best kept secrets of award tickets. During this session, weโll learn how to strategise with stopovers and turn a single city vacation into a multi-city jaunt, or even turn one vacation into two with careful planning.
Mixed cabin itineraries, award holds, faster KrisFlyer searchingโฆ
How do (and should) you combine First and Business Class on a single itinerary? How can you buy yourself more time to make a decision on an award flight? And what can you do to overcome the KrisFlyer websiteโs slow search interface? All this and more will be covered too!
The goal is that after youโre done with Advanced KrisFlyer, youโll be well-versed on the full range of options available for spending your miles.
