RTW Deals on SQ

[jay23]

Does SQ sells RTW tickets or is it the same *A miles based ticket ?

SQ participates in the standard *A RTW fares, as well as various airline-specific RTW fares (eg SQ/VS/NZ). There is a thread in the *A forum (with link in the sticky *A useful reference links) about the non-standard *A RTWs.

SQ has their own RTW fare for travel on SQ tin only. It is very good value compared with other RTW fares such as *A, Oneworld, or specific airline combination specials. I am about to embark on a SQ only RTW fare in 1st class: MEL-SIN-SFO, JFK-SIN(via FRA), SIN-MEL with a non SQ SFO-JFK segment paid separately.

That is an incredible price for SQ only RTW fares from the US and Canada

First Class US$6,699*
Business Class US$5,299*
Economy Class US$2,266*

The * conditions must be strict and seats very limited...

One has to be quite imagative in crafting a SQ only RTW itinerary due to "no back-tracking" and the fact that many routes end/start in SIN. Last October, I did SFO/SIN/DXB/IST (surface to FRA) and then FRA/JFK. All in F! The SQ only RTW rules were "grey" (at least to me), about using SIN more than once as a stopover point.

I can't figure out how an all SQ trip would be possible from Western USA/Canada. Anyone have any insights?

I am planing a

LAX-NRT-SIN-FRA-JFK (or SIN-MOS-Houston)

[aislealways]

Would JFK - FRA - SIN - ICN - SFO be a permitted RTW route?

The fare exists from USA only. From W Coast fly, Westbound... to SIN, and then end in NYC.

Yes.

You may do IAH-MOW-DXB-SIN-BKK-NRT-LAX too if you want...

At least to YVR, you'd end up back in NA via JFK. Then take the JFK-YVR flight. This forces an overnight in NYC (since the direct flights are all in the early am) but is otherwise doable.

My main concern is what type of available does SQ give its own RTW fares. If it is ultra-tight, then it is useless. Given all of the restrictions SQ puts on fares due to their new business and suites, it could make an RTW almost pointless.

Actually I bought my SQ RTW from SYD.. great price from SQ office in SYDNEY. Was able to route SYD-SIN-NRT-LAX; then JFK-FRA..BCN-SIN-SYD.. Really great fare in first class

[Dorian]

There is an SQ metal flight from JFK to YVR? Or did you mean take a different carrier?

[Dorian]

This is what I'm trying to do. I have a business class ticket being paid for of unlimited cost for travel to TPE.

YVR-LAX-TPE return is $7k'ish in J.

I figure I could do an SQ RTW in F which is a touch less cash.

Something like:

LAX-TPE-SIN-MOS-HOU

or

LAX-TPE-SIN-JFK

I couldn't find a max mileage rule for the SQ RTW.

Maybe throw SIN-SYD in the middle of the above?
