Singapore Airlines Expands Partnership With India


Singapore Airlines Expands Partnership With Air India

From 15 September, frequent flyers on Singapore Airlines and Air India can enjoy greater choice and value for money, thanks to a new bilateral frequent flyer programme agreement between the two carriers.

Under the agreement, frequent flyer programme members of both airlines are able to earn and redeem miles on flights operated by either carrier. This means members of Singapore Airlines’ KrisFlyer programme can now earn KrisFlyer miles when they fly with Air India, or choose to redeem their miles for flights with the Indian carrier.

Likewise, members of Air India’s Flying Returns programme will enjoy greater choice by having the option of using their miles on Singapore Airlines flights or earning miles when they fly on Singapore Airlines.

“Singapore Airlines is pleased to welcome Air India on board. The addition of Air India as a KrisFlyer partner boosts the number of carriers we have such agreements with to 28. Those who fly frequently with Singapore Airlines and Air India now have more opportunity to increase their frequent flyer miles, and more choice in deciding how best to use their miles,” said Mr Huang Cheng Eng, Singapore Airlines’ Executive Vice President Marketing and the Regions.

Singapore Airlines operates 42 times a week to 6 destinations in India. With the inclusion of subsidiary carrier SilkAir, the Singapore Airlines route network covers 93 destinations in 38 countries.
