Award planning SFO-SIN
I've been browsing this forum for a while looking for suggestions but haven't found anything helpful. If this has been asked and answered, I apologize. Links to past threads would be appreciated.
I'm planning a trip to SIN over Christmas in 2018. I have a narrow range of dates that I must leave & return SFO. I'm looking for J seats for 3 adults. I have many Chase Ultimate Rewards points as well as United Mileage Plus. 3 adults and we can move the UR points between us as required. I'd prefer lower cost rewards, of course. I can also pay some cash (econ or prem econ) plus miles to end up in J. We'd also like to stop somewhere on the return for a few days (HKG, NRT, ICN, etc.). I'm new to the SQ program and don't understand all the options. Can anyone suggest strategy/guidance for this? How far out are seats available? Is it best to jump in the moment they open or wait? Better results watching on SQ or UA? Thanks. |
if you want a stopover, your only option out of SFO is through HKG. I would suggest being a bit flexible and try looking at LAX too, I know the drive is long but it would open up LAX-NRT/ICN-SIN for you to look at too.
SQ releases award space 355 days out at a specific time (can't remember what time sorry) of course its always better to book ASAP. SQ does not release J/F award space to UA afaik so you would have to watch SQ. regarding upgrading, the fare buckets you'll be able to upgrade from are usually really expensive on SQ fyi |
