Singapore Airlines Spontaneous Escapes is offering 30% off select redemptions for travel in June, and it’s a great way to fly one of the world’s best airlines across the Atlantic.

The award-winning airline operates a daily fifth-freedom flight from New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to Frankfurt Airport (FRA) before continuing on to the airline’s home at Singapore Changi Airport (SIN). You can fly all the way to Singapore or just book the transatlantic leg from JFK to FRA (or vice versa), if you wish.

This month, Spontaneous Escapes is offering 30% discounts on Singapore KrisFlyer redemptions when flying from Frankfurt to New York one-way in June, as follows:

  • Economy for 17,500 miles (blackout period of June 7 to 9)
  • Premium economy for 36,400 miles
  • Business class for 56,700 miles

You can book these flights online — just look for “Promo” pricing, which is 30% cheaper than the “Saver” pricing.

SINGAPORE AIRLINES

Unfortunately, discount pricing is not offered on the leg from JFK to FRA, but there are plenty of ways to redeem points and miles for a summer trip to Europe.

How to earn Singapore KrisFlyer miles

Earning Singapore KrisFlyer miles is easy. The program is a 1:1 transfer partner with American Express Membership Rewards, Capital One, Citi ThankYou Rewards and Chase Ultimate Rewards.

KrisFlyer is a 3:1 transfer partner with Marriott Bonvoy, offering 5,000 bonus miles for every 60,000 points transferred. This means 60,000 Marriott points are worth 25,000 Singapore miles.

Bottom line

Singapore Airlines might not be the first airline you consider when flying to or from Europe. Still, the unique fifth-freedom route between Germany and New York allows you to try this fantastic airline without traveling all the way to or from Singapore. It’s hard to beat this price if you’re traveling next month.

To take advantage of these Spontaneous Escapes discounts for travel between June 1 and 30, book by the end of this month.
