Back in January 2023, Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer and Marriott Bonvoy launched a two-way points conversion partnership, allowing members to transfer points in either direction. This was followed by a two-way status match and accelerator in December 2023, providing a quicker route to Marriott Bonvoy Platinum or KrisFlyer Elite Gold.ย
Now, there’s a new joint promotion that offers an extra 500 KrisFlyer miles for every Marriott Bonvoy stay, and 1,200 Marriott Bonvoy points for every Singapore Airlines booking.ย
Marriott Bonvoy x KrisFlyer Earn Two Ways promotion
Under the Earn Two Ways promotion, registered members will earn:
- 500 KrisFlyer miles for each eligible Marriott Bonvoy stay
- 1,200 Marriott Bonvoy points for each eligible Singapore Airlines flight booking
Stays must commence between 10 October and 12 December 2024 to be eligible, while flights must be completed between 10 October and 12 December 2024 to be eligible.ย
Do note that members are only allowed to participate in one dual earn offer per calendar year, so if you’ve participated in another Marriott Bonvoy offer with a different airline, you won’t be eligible for this one.
Eligible Marriott Bonvoy stays
For a Marriott Bonvoy stay to be eligible, the following conditions must be met:
- the stay must be at least one night at a hotel participating in the Marriott Bonvoy program (e.g. not the Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore)
- the stay commenced during the Promotion Travel Period
- the stay must be paid with cash (i.e. stays booked with Marriott Bonvoy points or cash and points are not eligible)
Eligible Singapore Airlines flights
For a Singapore Airlines flight booking to be eligible, the following conditions must be met:
- the travellers must have included their KrisFlyer membership numbers at the point of booking, with miles accrued to their KrisFlyer membership accounts
- the flights in the flight booking must be operated by Singapore Airlines
- the flights in the booking must be completed during the Promotion Travel Period
- the flight booking must be paid in cash (i.e. flights booked with miles or a mix of cash and miles are not eligible)
For avoidance of doubt, the 1,200 bonus points will be awarded once per eligible flight booking, regardless of the number of sectors included. For example, a round-trip Singapore to London ticket would earn the same bonus as a one-way Singapore to London ticket.ย
If you have multiple names in a single flight booking, each person will be eligible for 1,200 bonus points upon completion of travel, provided they included their KrisFlyer number and have registered for this promotion.
When will bonuses post?
All miles and points under this promotion will be credited within 4-6 weeks after the promotion period ends, i.e. by 23 January 2025.
How do you register?
Before registration can be done, you must have linked your KrisFlyer and Marriott Bonvoy accounts under the preferred partnership programme, which can be done here.
Once that’s done, you can use this link to register for this promotion, which must be done by 4 October 2024.
โ ๏ธ You might not want to link yet! |
Because of the status match offer (covered later in this article), you might not want to link your KrisFlyer and Marriott Bonvoy accounts just yet! For example, if you’re a KrisFlyer Elite Gold, linking your accounts starts the timer on the six-month period to stay 10 nights for Marriott Bonvoy Platinum. If that period lapses without you attaining the required number of nights, you cannot try again in the future.ย Likewise, if you’re a Marriott Bonvoy Platinum, linking your accounts starts the timer on the six-month period to take four flights for KrisFlyer Elite Gold. If that period lapses without you attaining the required number of flights, you cannot try again in the future.ย |

Conclusion
Marriott Bonvoy and KrisFlyer have launched a new dual earn offer that gives 500 bonus KrisFlyer miles per hotel stay, and 1,200 bonus Marriott Bonvoy points per flight booking.
These are relatively modest rewards, but it doesn’t cost you anything to link your accounts and register. Just be aware that your status challenge period will start from the moment of linking, so it’s best to have enough flights or stays lined up to qualify.
It looks like you have to be eliglble for the status match in order to register for this promo … I got a message saying “We regret to inform you that your registration to status match to KrisFlyer Elite Silver tier via the KrisFlyer and Marriott Bonvoy preferred partnership programme was unsuccessful” because I have KF Gold and Marriott Titanium. Seems odd
Same situation. I called both membership support still couldn’t be solved. sad…
only marriott bonvoy gold and above can link accounts? im silver elite and they did not let me link my account
Bonvoy Gold and above as long as you’re not KF Silver (or something)
Similar to the post below, I have flights with SQ planned and stays with Marriott too. I couldnโt successfully link the accounts (same error message). Probably as I am PPS and Bonvoy Titanium already. So also no bonus points and miles for these upcoming travel plans. โน๏ธ
I registered but did not receive any confirmation email. How do I know if I registered successfully?
Same. I also did not receive any confirmation email after registration.
Same , no email confirmation yet.
Seems like it is only for Bonvoy accounts with points as a default earning preference?
almost everyone should have points as default earning preference.
After registering I saw message online that read
โThanks. You will receive an email if your registration is successfulโ.
Havenโt received mail as yet.
MB Titanium
KF Silver Elite
Did u receive a email in the end? I still have not received to date.
