KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes

[kangarooflyer88]

My points are through NAB rewards not NAB Virgin

Just to clarify what I am saying is if you hold sufficient Virgin Australia points right now, you could initiate a transfer over to Singapore Air. Now obviously if you don't have a Virgin Australia account with points that's irrelevant I suppose, although I must point out that you can transfer FlyBuys to Virgin Australia at a rate of 2000 Flybuys = 1000 Virgin Australia points.

Some options to/from Oz for next month.

Business as well.

There's a few black out dates.

New flights just released "from now till 29 February 2024, for travel from 1 March 2024 to 30 April 2024, both dates inclusive"

That's two months of 30% off!!

But very little love for Australia, and no J fares SIN- Europe

 

[flyguy77]

But very little love for Australia

I just went through the entire months of March/April which supposedly have these discounted fares Sydney - Singapore

There was not a single date or flight available at 30% off in Business (and barely anything at Saver Rates)

 

[bussyboy]

Worse yet, it seems like there's almost never J to/from Perth, based on a search of this thread

 

[bussyboy]

Strictly speaking not a Spontaneous Escape, but a similar 25% off, with some Perth love for a change:

https://www.singaporeair.com/en_UK/au/plan-travel/local-promotions/australia/krisflyer-new-flights/

Travel from Melbourne: 27 May 2024 – 19 June 2024
Travel from Perth: 31 March 2024 – 30 April 2024

 

[Hydro]

Can you book a spontaneous getaway from Europe to Australia.

 

[henrus]

It’s clear the switch to A350 even at a less frequent number of days is way too much for the Cairns market.

 

[serfty]

June escapes have been published for July.

Most/all blackout dates are early in month - OK if you are travelling in the last two weeks ...

A great table - but I think you mixed that comment up as the blackout periods are early/fast half of July.

Most Promo rates are LATER in the month

Yes, misread the column heading.

There are also a few Premium Economy deals available from SYD/AKL/CHC/MEL to SIN in the second half of July.

 

[Mattg]

This month's routes are now released. SIN to BNE, MEL, SYD, PER and CNS are all included, as are CNS-SIN and PER-SIN.

Is it just me or are there no discounted business rewards available from Singapore to Brisbane all month? Seems weird they would put that route on sale and then have no seats.

They seem to do this quite a bit and I check as soon as I get notification from Krisflyer.

It verges on false advertising really

Or perhaps they are being taken in 5 minutes flat by bots/mileage brokers etc? (just a wild guess)

At least 5 days with saver flights, early and mid September.

Saver yes, sale no.

 

[bussyboy]

I've noticed a few times that actual availabilities often aren't loaded immediately when the website goes live, but after the emails are received.

I could be imagining it?

 

[andyhui01]

Does anyone know why the Promo is greyed out and I can't select it?

When they are not available, they do show Not Available specifically

I believe have seen similar having already selected a saver option in the same booking.
