Quick Thoughts

The premium economy fares to Asia certainly don’t look bad, with Hong Kong available for $999 and several other cities available for $1299 round trip.

These are just a few city combinations — see the link under “The Deal” for the full list.

But for those looking for business class, the $1995 round trip fare to Frankfurt may be the most appealing deal. Availability is wide open in the summer months.

I’m not sure whether or not Singapore will have their new business class on this route, but either way it will be on an A380 and feature a very wide seat. The good news is that these fares are widely available through the OTA of your choice. They are also available via the Chase travel portal. If you have decided that the Sapphire Reserve is a better value for you (See: Showdown: Sapphire Reserve vs Preferred First Year Value), you’ll be happy to see that CSR holders can use Ultimate Rewards at 1.5c each and pay less than 133,000 points round trip:

That’s an awesome deal. Singapore Krisflyer normally charges 65,000 miles each way for saver business class — 130K round trip + ~$47 in taxes. With this sale, you don’t need to rely on saver award space. Furthermore, you can earn 200% mileage flown if credited to Alaska Airlines.

That means you should earn about 15,000 redeemable miles if credited to Alaska, making this a very nice deal indeed.

Bottom line

These are some excellent fares to both Asia and Europe, though the business class fare from New York to Frankfurt looks particularly appealing. For about the same number of points as an award ticket, you get to pick your dates without being limited to award availability while also earning valuable miles with Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan. While not everyone is impressed with Singapore’s new business class seats, I think it’d be easy to be pretty happy with either the old or new seats at this price.

Hey Nick!
Thanks for the tip re: the FRA to JFK route on Singapore using points. I did not get on that flight but here’s what I did get on: Lisbon to Dubai to Los Angeles with free layover in Dubai and a very long 16 hours final trip to LA. I snagged it because I’ve never seen a flight from Europe to Calif fly like Salmon up a stream, and I’ve never been ln the Middle East so I snagged it. And I paid 47,500 Alaska Miles for that 1 way trip (in Economy ) on Emirates Air. I’m going to be contacting emirates to sign up for their program, as well as see if I can negotiate an upgrade to at least economy plus for extra cash. Lastly, with this trip (which starts in Los Angeles and ends in Los Angeles ) I will fly around the world. And that’s pretty cool. And 3 nights free stay at the Grand Hyatt Dubai, A resort hotel close to city center and the old part of the city, due to my certificate for one night free and two nights free with points. I’m liking how that worked out!
