Should I credit my Singapore Ticketed Flights to NZ?
Bought PE and J flights via Singapore Airlines, but travelling on NZ metal as I had just missed out on NZ New Year's sales... Singapore Airlines still had the specials. Should I credit the miles to my NZ SP? Or start crediting a new KrisFlyer account I just created? I know I won't get as much SP because I didn't book direct with NZ. :-(

I usually take care of the home program first so would accrue to NZ first. If I knew other flying would take care of NZ targets then I accrue to SQ but I top up SQ with other methods to make it a beneficial program. If you're not going to maximize the SQ program then I'd accrue to NZ.

That's sort of encouraging to hear! When I go on this website (https://www.airnzpoints.co.nz/) it tells me I will only get half the points than I would've if booked direct with NZ for the same price.
