Effective Nov. 1, the program will soon increase award rates for its own flights, partner flights and cabin upgrades.\nThe airline also announced that it's rolling out a new type of award ticket called \"Access\" on this date. Access awards will let members book seats on any Singapore Airlines flight — even if Saver or Advantage space isn't available — and they will be priced dynamically.\nHere's what you need to know about these KrisFlyer changes.\nSingapore KrisFlyer devaluation\nSingapore Airlines business class on an Airbus A380. CHRISTIAN KRAMER\/THE POINTS GUY\nContinue learning how to maximize your points and miles with our\n.\nUnfortunately, this devaluation affects almost every route you can book with KrisFlyer. If you're booking a flight on Singapore Airlines' own planes, you will see as much as a 20% increase in the number of points required to book. The worst changes are for KrisFlyer's Advantage awards, which cost more than Saver but include more flexibility.\nHere's a breakdown of the devaluation for flights on Singapore Airlines:\nSaver redemptions (zones 1 through 9, Asia and Southwest Pacific)\n: 5% decrease for economy and 5% increase for business and first class\nSaver redemptions (zones 11 through 13, Europe and U.S.)\n: 5% increase for all classes\nSaver redemptions (Zone 10, Africa, the Middle East and Turkey)\n: 10% to 20% increase for all classes\nAdvantage redemptions (all zones)\n: 5% increase for economy in Zone 10, 18% increase for business class in Zone 10 and 15% increase for first class in Zone 10; 10% to 15% increase for all classes in all other zones\nDaily Newsletter\nReward your inbox with the TPG Daily newsletter\nJoin over 1,000,000 readers for breaking news, in-depth guides and exclusive deals from TPG’s experts\nEmail address\nBy signing up, you will receive newsletters and promotional content and agree to our\nTerms of Use\nand acknowledge the data practices in our\nPrivacy Policy\n.

We won't run through every single change in this article, but some of the most notable ones for U.S.-based travelers include:\nIntra-North America flights\n: Increasing to 15,000 miles one-way from 14,000 miles for economy; increasing to 29,000 miles one-way from 26,000 miles for business class\nNorth America to Hawaii and Central America\n: Increasing to 20,500 miles one-way from 19,500 miles for economy; increasing to 43,000 miles one-way from 39,000 miles for business class\nNorth America to Europe\n: Increasing to 32,500 miles one-way from 30,500 miles for economy; increasing to 89,500 miles one-way from 81,000 miles for business class\nFinally, the number of miles you'll need to upgrade a Singapore Airlines ticket is also increasing by between 5% and 10% in most cases. The increase amount will vary depending on the zone you're flying to and from.\nNext-level travel, made easy\nDon’t spend 40+ hours planning your next adventure. Lonely Planet Journeys partners you with certified local experts who craft personalized, unforgettable trips.\nThis isn't the worst devaluation we've seen in the points and miles world, but these changes still make using KrisFlyer more expensive. If you're in the market for a KrisFlyer award ticket, book it now before prices increase this November.\nSingapore Airlines will add Access awards\nKrisFlyer will launch Access awards Nov. 1. These awards allow KrisFlyer members to book any available seat on a Singapore Airlines flight with their miles. Unlike Saver and Advantage awards, they will be dynamically priced based on demand.\nThe airline hasn't announced pricing specifics yet, so we'll have to wait until November. However, if Access awards work anything like comparable awards for\nDelta SkyMiles\nand\nUnited MileagePlus\n, expect popular routes to get extremely expensive over holidays and other peak travel times. Thankfully, this is only an additional option, and KrisFlyer's Saver and Advantage award charts are here to stay.\nBottom line\nIt's always unfortunate to see a loyalty program devalue, but we appreciate that Singapore Airlines gave us plenty of advance notice. With that in mind, if you've been waiting to book a KrisFlyer award ticket, do it before Nov. 1 to lock in the predevaluation redemption rates.\nRelated reading:\nTPG's 2025 travel trends report\nKey travel tips you need to know — whether you're a first-time or frequent traveler\nBest travel credit cards\n6 real-life strategies you can use when your flight is canceled or delayed\n8 of the best credit cards for general travel purchases\n13 must-have items the TPG team can't travel without\nFeatured image by NICOLAS ECONOMOU\/NURPHOTO\/GETTY IMAGES\nEditorial disclaimer: Opinions expressed here are the author’s alone, not those of any bank, credit card issuer, airline or hotel chain, and have not been reviewed, approved or otherwise endorsed by any of these entities.\nTPG featured card\nRewards rate\n5X miles\nEarn 5X miles on hotels, vacation rentals and rental cars booked through Capital One Travel\n2X miles\nEarn unlimited 2X miles on every purchase, every day\nIntro offer\nOpen Intro bonus\nLIMITED-TIME OFFER: Enjoy $250 to use on Capital One Travel in your first cardholder year, plus earn 75,000 bonus miles once you spend $4,000 on purchases within the first 3 months from account opening - that’s equal to $1,000 in travel\nEnjoy a $250 travel credit & earn 75K bonus miles\nAnnual fee\n$95\nRegular APR\n19.49% - 28.49% (Variable)\nRecommended credit\nOpen Credit score description\nCredit ranges are a variation of FICO® Score 8, one of many types of credit scores lenders may use when considering your credit card application.\n670-850\nExcellent, Good\nPros\nStellar welcome offer of 75,000 miles after spending $4,000 on purchases in the first three months from account opening.

[Singapore KrisFlyer](https://thepointsguy.com/loyalty-programs/ultimate-guide-singapore-krisflyer/) is the latest airline loyalty program to devalue. Effective Nov. 1, the program will soon increase award rates for its own flights, partner flights and cabin upgrades. The airline also announced that it's rolling out a new type of award ticket called "Access" on this date. Access awards will let members book seats on any Singapore Airlines flight — even if Saver or Advantage space isn't available — and they will be priced dynamically. Here's what you need to know about these KrisFlyer changes. ## Singapore KrisFlyer devaluation ![Singapore Airlines First Class on an Airbus A380](https://runway-media-production.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2019/02/Singapore-Business-Class-A380-JFK-to-FRA_Dec-2018-91.jpg?width=3840) Singapore Airlines business class on an Airbus A380. CHRISTIAN KRAMER/THE POINTS GUY Continue learning how to maximize your points and miles with our . Unfortunately, this devaluation affects almost every route you can book with KrisFlyer. If you're booking a flight on Singapore Airlines' own planes, you will see as much as a 20% increase in the number of points required to book. The worst changes are for KrisFlyer's Advantage awards, which cost more than Saver but include more flexibility. Here's a breakdown of the devaluation for flights on Singapore Airlines: - Saver redemptions (zones 1 through 9, Asia and Southwest Pacific): 5% decrease for economy and 5% increase for business and first class - Saver redemptions (zones 11 through 13, Europe and U.S.): 5% increase for all classes - Saver redemptions (Zone 10, Africa, the Middle East and Turkey): 10% to 20% increase for all classes - Advantage redemptions (all zones): 5% increase for economy in Zone 10, 18% increase for business class in Zone 10 and 15% increase for first class in Zone 10; 10% to 15% increase for all classes in all other zones ![](https://thepointsguy.com/images/EmailSignUp/daily-dt.svg) Daily Newsletter Reward your inbox with the TPG Daily newsletter Join over 1,000,000 readers for breaking news, in-depth guides and exclusive deals from TPG’s experts Meanwhile, Star Alliance partner flights are also getting more expensive, with prices increasing by roughly 10% across the board. We won't run through every single change in this article, but some of the most notable ones for U.S.-based travelers include: - Intra-North America flights: Increasing to 15,000 miles one-way from 14,000 miles for economy; increasing to 29,000 miles one-way from 26,000 miles for business class - North America to Hawaii and Central America: Increasing to 20,500 miles one-way from 19,500 miles for economy; increasing to 43,000 miles one-way from 39,000 miles for business class - North America to Europe: Increasing to 32,500 miles one-way from 30,500 miles for economy; increasing to 89,500 miles one-way from 81,000 miles for business class Finally, the number of miles you'll need to upgrade a Singapore Airlines ticket is also increasing by between 5% and 10% in most cases. The increase amount will vary depending on the zone you're flying to and from. ![elsewhere](https://thepointsguy.com/_next/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net%2Fcdn%2FinlineDriver%2Felsewhere2.png&w=640&q=75) #### Next-level travel, made easy Don’t spend 40+ hours planning your next adventure. Lonely Planet Journeys partners you with certified local experts who craft personalized, unforgettable trips. This isn't the worst devaluation we've seen in the points and miles world, but these changes still make using KrisFlyer more expensive. If you're in the market for a KrisFlyer award ticket, book it now before prices increase this November. ## Singapore Airlines will add Access awards KrisFlyer will launch Access awards Nov. 1. These awards allow KrisFlyer members to book any available seat on a Singapore Airlines flight with their miles. Unlike Saver and Advantage awards, they will be dynamically priced based on demand. The airline hasn't announced pricing specifics yet, so we'll have to wait until November. However, if Access awards work anything like comparable awards for [Delta SkyMiles](https://thepointsguy.com/loyalty-programs/ultimate-guide-delta-skymiles/) and [United MileagePlus](https://thepointsguy.com/loyalty-programs/know-united-mileageplus/), expect popular routes to get extremely expensive over holidays and other peak travel times. Thankfully, this is only an additional option, and KrisFlyer's Saver and Advantage award charts are here to stay. ## Bottom line It's always unfortunate to see a loyalty program devalue, but we appreciate that Singapore Airlines gave us plenty of advance notice. With that in mind, if you've been waiting to book a KrisFlyer award ticket, do it before Nov. 1 to lock in the predevaluation redemption rates.
