Do I still need to call ICC or is KVS accurate?
If you are using the
[Awards/AC-StarAlliance] Method in the
KVS Tool, there should be no need to call ICC.

For any other SQ aircraft type, KVS/ANA is more reliable.
Actually, there are 3 different data sources for
SQ Award Availability within the
KVS Tool, 2 of which fully support Award Availability on
SQ 388/77W/345 aircraft.
