Premium Economy: Sq: Sin-lax/ewr around $1000

For booking until September 19 (SGT), SQ nonstop S seats (booking codes P/R) nonstop on the new/additional flights SIN-LAX and SIN-EWR showing for just under or around $1000.

Outbound must be Nov 2-15 and return by Dec 15 for stay of 3-30 days for LAX route, and outbound Oct 22-Nov 8 and return by Dec 8 for 3-30 days on the EWR route.

First time posting to the forums, so I hope this helps even just a bit.

For comparison, this "promotion" is $500~ cheaper than the standard low price for the route-cabin combination.

Easily available on Momondo (750 euro) or Priceline. Very limited dates though: travel between 2 and 15 november 2018.
How does R credit to Miles&More? It should give 300%, but Miles&More thinks R with SQ is first class.

R used to be first. It's now the cheapest pe fare class

Asiana updated p and r to 100%. Miles n more should update soon?

M&M is still crediting 300% for R. Fare is RT5SGRF1 according to SQ website, so clearly "R" class.
SIN-EWR-SIN should earn 57'100 tier and award miles. The best ration I've ever came across.

that is actually the “second shoe waiting to drop”.
it would be incredible to get 300% credit on a PE booking class.
on the other end of the spectrum, R accrues nothing on Aegean miles and bonus....

SAS Eurobonus earn points booking class P, R on Singapore Airlines

SAS Eurobonds earns 100% for P and R bookings on SQ. Just be careful with Miles and More for any disappointments.
SAS: R-class valid from September 1, 2018. 100%. Economy.

M&M lost a lawsuit in 2012 for giving too short notice of redemption devaluation. Might be little different from this case, but as an other example, the CA "W" class (changed from Y+ to lower Y by CA) was earning 150% for years. M&M fixed it March 2018 and gave notice for this adjustment in November 2017.
So, still no guarantee, but some sort of indication on how M&M could handle it these days.

Keep in mind that booking rules state that this is a totally UNREFUNDABLE fare. You can change it for a fee, though, but you have to be sure to fly when booking this. But otherwise it's a great deal.

I was looking out for OZ accrual rules for weeks, and thankfully just days before Asiana finally updated their earning chart/rules (cheap pe R-fare) for SQ flights. I now have a preferred ex-Asia mileage run route to the US.
