This means that when you make a booking with your miles we can only reserve it for a certain amount of time. If you do not call us back to complete the booking within this time, it will be cancelled.

Singapore Airlines have introduced the following booking time limits:

number of days until departure // number of days booking held for
more than 21 // 21
