01. By looking your travelling pattern, I would stay with BMI DC. No need to change into SQKF unless if your company has an agreement with SQ and you will be flying J or F. But since you just travelling to SEA then stick to BD. To get PPS Value nowadays is getting tougher as SQ will be based on PPS Values, ie 25,000 SGD /year and only count if you fly in J or F. So Assuming that then SEA is not definitely worth it for your SQKF.

02. How easy to spend BMI DC to SQ Flights? Depends on the sector you are flying to. Mostly SQ just release 1 seat in premium cabin and 2 or 3 seats in Y Cabin for star alliance awards and they will give priority to SQKF member first. So I cant really tell you how easy it is, you just have to check with BMI DC every day if SQ hasnt open up the seat allocation.

03. No need to worry to your BA account. BA flies to SIN twice a day, so you just move your UK address to SIN address. BA parts of oneworld and A lot of world airlines fly to SIN. Consider CX, JAL, Royal Jordan. So still eligible to earn/spend mileage with them.

04. SQ and AMEX has an agreement but again since your company pay for your ticket. I dont think this is going to save you a lot and apart from it, SQ is famous for their stingy when you try to earn mileage but squeezing you a lot when you spend them. So cancel your BA Amex in UK or tell AMEX that you will be based in SIN, is there any possibility to move your account there?.

Good Luck and enjoy your SIN Post.

I will be moving soon as well from MAN, UK to somewhere in this planet and definitely still SQ main routes.
