I currently have 22.5 sectors and need 2.5 more for requalification under the old scheme.
These 22.5 sectors have been been allocated a PPS value of S$15791, meaning under the new system, I will need another S$9209 to requalify for PPS.

I earned these 22.5 sectors as follows:

(J class)
Sin-Syd (2.5 sectors); S$2108.40
Syd-Sin (2.5 sectors); S$2040
Sin-Syd (2.5 sectors); S$2040
Syd-Sin (2.5 sectors) ]
Sin-Fra (5 sectors) ]; S$4369.20
Fra-Sin (5 sectors) ]
Sin-Syd (2.5 sectors) ]; S$4369.20

The values in red are what my corporate TA stated was my Base Fare (minus taxes etc) paid to SQ, converted from AUD$ to S$ at an exchange rate of 1:1.2 by me.

Total: S$14926.80 -> so this is very similar to the S$15791 PPS value that SQ have calculated....so I guess it is easy for them to calculate simple return fares cf to complicated around the world fares

The take home message for me is that I will have to do an extra 1.75 Syd-Sin return trips in J class to requalify for PPS under the new scheme...which is ridiculous, so it will be BYE-BYE to PPS for me

I'm flying Syd-Kul later this month via Sin with SQ in J class (and Y from Sin-Kul ), and this cost AUD$4400 total....I can fly DIRECT Syd-Kul on MH for AUD$3100 in J class, and get FREE return limousine transfers between my home and Sydney airport included (a saving of more than AUD$100 in taxi fares)!! So why should I direct all my travel to SQ?? I will now only travel with SQ if it is convenient, their airfare is competitive, and if the opposition on that route has very poor IFE / service.

I think SQ management have grossly underestimated the impact that the changes to their PPS program will have on my (and presumably others') future travel on them, which hopefully will bite them where it hurts the most:$$$$!!
