Award travel on SQ21/22?
I'm trying to book this round trip using Continental miles which is a Star Alliance partner of SQ.
Does anyone have experience successfully booking miles for this RT, and if so any pointers on how to make it work?
Thanks,

SQ 21/22 are operated by the all-Business class aircraft, the A340-500. These flights' award seats may only be redeemed using SQ's own FFP, Krisflyer miles. Thus you will not be able to use CO miles to redeem on these flights.
Even if you want to redeem them on Krisflyer miles, these flights need more miles than usual...
A oneway award from EWR to SIN on the A345 alone, will cost you 381,000 miles. That's ONEWAY !

But generally award space on A388 is not available to any other carriers other than Krisflyer.

I have two standard F awards In a few weeks using KF miles JFK-SIN-DPS (the return still on saver award waitlist). It makes more sense now that most of your awards are standard rather than saver.

Only the Krisflyer award is standard - the Lufthansa award has booked into I, for the flights and only cost 135,000 points for a A345 flight and the return B777-300ER flight.
I only added the details about the Krisflyer flight as I booked those first (which book into D) and then got a return ticket on the Next Gen Business Seat for a 135000 total.
