Singapore Airlines Extends Perks: Amid the lingering effects of the pandemic, Singapore Airlines continues to extend its generosity to its loyal customers. This time, it’s the PPS Club members who benefit from an extension. If you’ve earned Advance Upgrade Rewards as a PPS Club member, Singapore Airlines has granted an extension to these rewards, applicable primarily to Solitaire PPS Club members.
While this extension doesn’t encompass KrisFlyer Milestone Rewards, it’s a welcome development for those with Advance Upgrade PPS Rewards.
To check whether you have any Advance Upgrade Rewards set to expire, log in to your KrisFlyer account and navigate to Account Summary > PPS Rewards. There, you’ll find your rewards listed, along with their expiry dates. Keep in mind that the extension for these rewards will be effective by December 31, 2023. You may not see the new expiry date of December 31, 2024 reflected until the end of the year.

The good news is that you can apply your Advance Upgrade Rewards for flights departing after their original expiry date. Therefore, you have until December 31, 2024, to use these extended rewards. If you’ve previously applied an Upgrade Reward to a booking that was later refunded, reach out to Singapore Airlines to have the award redeposited into your account, extending its validity until December 31, 2024.
For PPS Club members, Advance Upgrade Awards are earned at key PPS Value milestones, including 60,000, 75,000, and 100,000 PPS Value accrued in your membership year. Each of these rewards grants you an advance upgrade voucher, allowing you to request a one-cabin class upgrade on your eligible booking, subject to availability.
This extension is a valuable gesture from Singapore Airlines, offering more flexibility and opportunities to its loyal customers as travel gradually returns to normal. So, if you’re planning to take a flight in the near future, these extended rewards can enhance your travel experience.
Our Reader’s Queries
How do I extend my KrisFlyer?
If you’re worried about your miles expiring, there’s a simple solution. You can extend their validity by 6 months. For a fee of US$12 (around S$16), you can keep 10,000 expiring miles active. Alternatively, you can sacrifice 1,200 miles per 10,000-mile block to achieve the same extension. It’s a small price to pay for peace of mind and the ability to use your miles when you’re ready.
Can I upgrade from economy to business class Singapore Airlines?
Upgrade your flight experience with Premium Economy Class or Business Class on select flights that offer these options. Please note that this upgrade is not available for Lite or Value fare types, as well as Economy Lite fare types and multi-city bookings. Enjoy the added comfort and luxury of Premium Economy or Business Class for an even more enjoyable journey.
How long does KrisFlyer membership last?
Accessing your digital membership card is made easy through the SingaporeAir mobile app. Concerned about your account’s validity? Worry not, as your KrisFlyer account will remain active for 39 months after your last earning transaction.
Do PPS miles expire?
As long as you’re a member of the PPS Club, your KrisFlyer miles won’t expire. However, if you’re no longer a member, your miles will expire three years from the date of your new tier.
