Low Fare ex BKK on SQ metal (5.5cpm to 7cpm on A3)
This is my first post even though I have been reading up and learning for a while.
The fare is quite unique and may not be of interest to a lot of people but it holds unique interest for me as I do not fly a lot but want to maintain *A gold by maintaining 24,000 miles per year.
The flight are primarily out of BKK.
The flight options are:
BKK-SIN-HKG-SFO-ICN-SIN-BKK 18800 miles 1050USD (5.6 cpm)
BKK-SIN-DME-SIN-BKK 12280 miles 784 USD (6.3 CPM)
BKK-SIN-CDG-SIN-BKK 15114 miles 855. USD (5.6 cpm)
More flights available on Singapore Airline (thailand) website
The idea is to book flight in class K (which is the promo class). Class K credits only 10% to Krisflyer but credits 100% to A3.
Fare conditions are 3 to 5 days minimum stay (depending on destination) and this is a promo fare between March 5 and March 13 2015.
Thai passport holder may visit Russia without visa and this is a good time as any with the weak russian ruble.
I hope that I am able to help someone plan a holiday while maintaining the *A Gold.

Thanks for sharing, but I think it's not as simple as it seems.
I recall vaguely reading somewhere that K will be a new SQ deep discount class. A3 has not updated their charts. So for now, if you can get away with it, good. But don't be too surprised that this K suddenly becomes non-earning on A3 sometime down the road.

Finger crossed
Well, I booked a flight for myself BKK-SIN-DME-SIN-BKK in beginning of April, let's see whether I will get the milea. And even if I do not get the miles, the price was better than any decent airline flight to Moscow.
I also read up in the aegean forum where some discussion on this fare basis and mile accumulation in k in a3 is still pending (enchanted_boy) , however, aegean claims that's it's because the miles has already been transferred to another FFP . There was no mention of 0%.
As for the bkk-sfo flight, I still see several dates in may(may 7-may 15) priced at 33090 or around 1050 USD. Please check the full SQ website for fare rules and promotion period, as I am typing this from my mobile.

Sadly a3 updated their earning chart
Well, Aegean updated their earning chart to play that class k of SQ will not earn any miles while backdating the chart to be effective as of 1 sep 2014. Because if this, I am unable to even submit a claim to the missing mile section of the website. It was too good to be true, and it really was.
