Consolidate card miles for 2 Biz Class to Singapore
Is it true that I can get miles from amex, chase, citi, and capitalone, and transfer all of those points to a single (or 2?) singapore airline ffa?
I'm new to the rewards game, but I want to make sure my strategy is correct. My goal is to get 2 (my wife and i) biz class tix to singapore in the next couple of years. I opened up a plat amex card, and I want to accumulate intro & earned miles with different cards. Also... can a single ffa program buy tickets for 2 people? Thanks.

Essentially yes but in practice transferring in miles from multiple sources at once or within a short period of time can trigger a fraud situation and is a big headache to resolve & also as availability you intended to ticket can be gone by the time it is resolved. With Amex it's a good idea to add a spouse/significant other as an AU as you can transfer to their FF/Hotel accounts but it has to be an established AU situation.
You can transfer and ticket for more than one person. Some programs, such as ANA has rules on who you can ticket for which limits to family twice removed.

It can be very difficult to find two SQ award tickets in business class on the same flight, and even harder if you're using partner miles. Do not assume that there will be availability or that the availability you see is not phantom.
