For the first time ever, travellers can look forward to travelling with Singapore Airlines at a fixed attractive fare.
Singapore Airlines announced the launch of the new Flight Pass in partnership with OptionTown that lets you fly more and pay less.
The smart pass allows you to pre-purchase flights for multiple destinations at a pre-set low fare. Whenever you’re ready, you can book a flight at no additional cost*. The more flights you buy, the cheaper it gets. Think of it as getting a prepaid card that comes with credits that you can utilize anytime.
*Subject to Flight Pass conditions selected at time of purchase. Additional requests such as seat selection and additional baggage allowance may be chargeable.
You can share the Flight Pass with friends, family or colleagues so you do not need to worry about not being able to fully utilize the pass. There are also no hidden restrictions and no hidden fees according to Singapore Airlines.
Currently, Singapore Airlines is offering Flight Pass to the following destinations:
Seoul
Amsterdam
Barcelona
Milan
Paris
Rome
London
For example, if you are getting a Flight Pass to Seoul, you will need to pay a total price of S$2,328 which provides you with 8 flights or credits to/from Seoul over a period of 12 months. It comes up to S$291 per flight or $582 for a return flight. For that price, it is definitely cheaper to get a Flight Pass since it’d have cost you around $6xx – $7xx for a return flight with Singapore Airlines.
A standard return trip to Seoul costs S$725.50
For Paris, we are looking at S$423 per flight or S$846 for a return trip. It usually costs S$9xx – $1xxx with Singapore Airlines.
