Was the agent incorrect in the amount she quoted me, or are there different and higher mileage requirements to redeem my US miles on SQ? Anyone have any experience with a similar trip they can share?
The agent was definitely incorrect. It is 20K economy or 30K business RT within South Asia.....then again..... have these agents received their geography training yet....or been issued a Globe???
I would call back and just try, try again...Good Luck
