Singapore Spontaneous Escapes price-busting award bookings are back! After returning from hiatus in spring 2022, Spontaneous Escapes are back again for another month.
These promotions offer KrisFlyer award bookings for 30% off on various routes, meaning you need fewer miles to book than normal. The latest list includes flights in September 2022. However, you need to book by August 31, 2022. So, act fast.
What Are Singapore Escapes?
Singapore Airlines runs the KrisFlyer award program, and Spontaneous Escapes offer discounts on KrisFlyer award bookings. Each month, the discount is 30%. That means an award that would normally cost 50,000 miles now costs 35,000. Not all routes are covered, though. The Spontaneous Escapes promotion provides a specific list of which Singapore Airlines flights are included in the promotion.
The list includes eligible flight dates and a “book by” date. Typically, the list comes out with a “book by” date for the last day of that month. The travel dates are typically in the following months.

Singapore KrisFlyer Transfer Partners
If you don’t have enough KrisFlyer miles to book an award, you can transfer points from numerous different programs:
- American Express Membership Rewards
- Capital One
- Chase Ultimate Rewards
- Citi ThankYou Rewards
- Marriott Bonvoy
- Brex Rewards
Except for Marriott, all point transfers are at a 1:1 ratio. Transfers from Marriott are at a 3:1 ratio, plus a 5,000-mile bonus for every 20,000 miles received in your KrisFlyer account.
Worried that space might disappear while you're waiting on points to show up in your account? You can view typical Singapore KrisFlyer transfer times to see which points will transfer the fastest. You can also use our Balance Watch feature to get notified as soon as the miles hit your KrisFlyer account. Then, you can snag the Singapore Spontaneous Escapes award that you want as quickly as possible.
And when it's time to pay, make sure to use your best credit card for travel purchases. That way, you'll get a great return on your spending.
Our Take
It's great to see the continuation of Singapore Airlines' Spontaneous Escapes. If you have your eye on any of the routes included on the list, you can book for 30% fewer miles than typically required.
Before booking, make sure you know what you're getting into. You need to book within a short window, and travel is within the next month. You need to have some flexibility and be able to book for near-term travel. Lastly, you should be certain you'll take the flights since you can't change or cancel these promotional tickets later.
If you can make it work and are sure you're going to take the flight, Singapore KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes can be a great deal. Snag one if it fits into your travel plans.
