Since you are from Toronto, you'll probably want to start from ORD. It should cost you around $1100 CAD including taxes.

From the Community forum, and the monthly threads in this forum, it looks like people still can't get enough of those SIN runs!

I've only done domestic mileage runs so far as I wait for status, but am definitely considering a run internationally, and it'll be to SIN if there is a really good reason.

There are a number of reasons FT'ers have for doing SIN runs, and I guess the best is the mileage accrual on a popular route for most airlines.
The fact that there is a 'transit hotel' at the airport, english is generally the main language, people are friendly, easy & fast to get into the city, great food etc etc. all make for a popular run.
I myself, while not doing an official MR (I stayed over 3 nights) had a great time this past Jan, meeting up with a large group of other FT'ers, and I now have plans to repeat the trip next year. It's always nice to start of the year with 20,000+ real miles in your FF account
