There is suddenly fantastic Saver availability on Singapore Airlines in Business Class on the longest flight in the world (Newark to Singapore).  Sven reported on this just minutes ago and not only have I verified tons of availability, I was even successful at getting a couple of tickets on hold to ticket (some very nice agents will hold for 4 days – if they say no, politely disconnect and call back) from SIN to EWR on one of the very busiest travel days of the year.

Crazily, here you can see 2 business saver seats, while the higher priced award is on waitlist?!

Remember, you can transfer points to Singapore Airlines from ALL FOUR transferable currencies: Chase, Citi, Amex, and SPG. It will run you 92,000 miles each, one way. It’s definitely not as luxurious as Singapore Suites, but Suites class would involve a connection in Frankfurt and, sometimes, direct is just better.

If you want to fly 18 hours direct to/from Singapore to NYC, book now! Or don’t, because it’s still a heck of a long time on a plane 😉

Are you booking this? Let me know here, on Twitter, or in the private MilesTalk Facebook group.

New to all of this? My new “introduction to miles and points” book, MilesTalk: Live Your Wildest Travel Dreams Using Miles and Points is available now.

I got "in the game" in 2003 and since then I've collected literally millions and millions of frequent flyer miles and hotel points. I've flown around the world in first class seats that would cost $29,000 using frequent flyer miles and a few bucks in tax. And I've stayed in some of the finest hotels - all for free! Several years ago, I realized many of my friends actually thought I was paying for these!! So I started sharing my tips. It's long been a passion, but when I hosted a session on Miles and Points at the South by Southwest festival, my love of the game intensified and this blog was born. Since then, I've written my book, MilesTalk: Live Your Wildest Travel Dreams Using Miles and Points (2nd Edition) - (author profile), give seminars on miles and points all over the world, and occasionally write for publications such as Frommer's and Forbes Advisor.
