Hello! I am currently flying JFK-FRA in early summer with my wife confirmed in J and one of us is waitlisted for Suites class. I booked this ticket a couple months ago when it first became available to book. Our original departure airport is BHM and our final destination is FCO and I originally thought about just booking subsequent flights on different PNR's, but am worried about IRROPS and not being protected. How possible is it for me to add segments to my existing PNR or what would the process/price be?
In summary we are looking to do something similar to: BHM-ORD-LGA/EWR-taxi to JFK-FRA-FCO
Is it possible to even ticket that entirely on one PNR?

Would appreciate some help - not sure if this has been asked in the other threads...
Booked in economy (full-fare Y), and looking to upgrade by miles. However, since it's booked by a travel agent, I can't seem to upgrade it online - it keeps prompting an error. Can the SQ desks in Changi process the miles upgrade a couple of hours before the flight?
Thanks in advance!

I booked a PE flexi ticket (T) class on SQ 22 and upgraded it with miles. Due to asking for an award hold during the process of transferring miles, the segment got split into a separate reservation and put into (I) class.
I'd like to credit this to another carrier (e.g. AS). How can I make sure I get credited for the original booking class on this segment? Right now it looks like an award ticket, even though I booked a paid fare and then upgraded.

Quick question for those in the know: are SQ currently operating any short-haul Asian routes with F class?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.

HKG would be the most obvious suspect, has F seats and even new suites, and the ~3.5hr flight time is sort of just enough to get a meal, like down a bit, maybe take a short nap.

Is anyone else experiencing this?
Before Singapore Air would let you have an extra leg for basically the same price. For example
Business SIN to LAX is 82k miles but you could book HKG to SIN to LAX for 82k miles as well.
When looking for a redemption on their systems, it still shows 88k miles but when you click on a flight it jumps up to a higher price, in this case 115,000 miles.

The lower price shown on the availability screen only applies to non-stops flights between Asia and the US. When you pass SIN, it will price as a combination of two separate legs.

I'm a tad confused. I just booked a flight a few weeks ago LAX to SIN to SGN which is the same cost as LAX to SIN.

Is the 777-300ER on LAX-NRT, SQ11, the new business class seat or the older version?

Europe-US and North Asia-US flights are an exception, because they do have non-stop flights from Europe and North Asia to the US. The relatively low price shown on the award chart is therefore only applicable when choosing the non-stop flights, not via SIN; they do not intend that you go via SIN at those prices.

You cannot go from LAX to SGN on SQ without transiting in SIN, so the award chart reflects this fact and allows you to transit at SIN.

Are KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes refreshed monthly? I'm looking for an October announcement for point savings. Is there a date this is typically released?
