KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes for February 2025 announced

Spontaneous Escapes have been announced for February 2025, with 30% off redemptions for selected Singapore Airlines flights in Business Class, Premium Economy Class and Economy Class.

Awards must be booked and ticketed by 31 January 2025, with travel from 1-28 February 2025.

One caveat I want to add here. This month, Singapore Airlines has released the list of Spontaneous Escapes one day early. However, I’m not actually able to find any inventory online at the moment. I’d recommend checking back regularly to see whether that’s changed. In case Singapore Airlines takes down the landing page, you can access the archived copy here.

If you’re new to all this, or simply need a refresher on the basics, be sure to check out my detailed guide to Spontaneous Escapes. Also be sure to check out KrisFlyer SEAT, a nifty tool that’s compiled every edition of Spontaneous Escapes to date- it’s useful when planning for future months!

Spontaneous Escapes: Ground Rules

❓  Spontaneous Escapes

Tickets must be booked online at singaporeair.com or the SingaporeAir mobile app; no bookings via phone are permitted Tickets cannot be changed or cancelled. Be sure about your travel plans, or buy a travel insurance policy that covers miles bookings Refunds will only be granted if the flight is cancelled by SIA, or if a change in entry regulations makes travel impossible Travel must be completed within the Spontaneous Escapes promotion period to qualify. For example, if you fly on the last day of the month but land on the first day of the following month, no discount applies Awards must be ticketed within the Spontaneous Escapes promotion period Waitlisting is not permitted for Spontaneous Escapes awards Blackout dates apply. If you’re not seeing discounts, this may be why Discounts may apply in one direction only e.g. SIN-BKK may be on discount but BKK-SIN may not. Be sure to read the offers carefully You cannot combine Spontaneous Escapes awards and Saver/Advantage awards in the same booking. You will need to book separate one-way legs if the Spontaneous Escapes discounts do not apply to one or more of the flights in your itinerary

Singapore Airlines shows Spontaneous Escapes awards under a special Promo category. This is the one you should select when making your booking (and if it doesn’t appear, that means there’s no availability remaining- though that doesn’t preclude it from reappearing later, so check back often). 

Prior to COVID, Spontaneous Escapes were a subset of Saver awards. This created a problem, namely that if you wanted to book a regular Saver award (because it comes with a cancellation option, unlike Spontaneous Escapes awards), you couldn’t actually do it!

Now that Spontaneous Escapes are a separate category unto themselves, you have the freedom to choose to pay regular Saver prices if you so wish (thereby enjoying additional flexibility).

To understand the differences between the three award types, refer to the article below.

KrisFlyer Promo, Saver and Advantage awards: What’s the difference?

Spontaneous Escapes awards are strictly non-cancellable and non-changeable. Since no concession is made for travellers who cannot fly due to COVID-19, the onus is on you to purchase travel insurance that covers miles & points bookings.

What if you have an existing award?

If you’ve already holding on to a confirmed award on a flight that is now under Spontaneous Escapes, you will need to:

1. Book the Spontaneous Escapes rate
2. Cancel the existing booking and pay the redeposit fee (US$75 for Saver, US$50 for Advantage)

I strongly recommend doing it in this order, in case the Spontaneous Escapes award space disappears in the meantime. It does mean you’ll need sufficient miles on hand, of course. 

Depending on your luck, miles may be recredited immediately to your account, but can take up to 4-6 weeks. If you need them urgently, the CSO can put in a request to expedite the process, but YMMV.

Conclusion

Singapore Airlines Spontaneous Escapes for February 2025 are out, and if you manage to find something you like, be sure to ticket your awards by 31 January 2025 to enjoy the discounts.
