Smart Recommendations
Best Time to Book
Book award flights for travel to Southeast Asia with Singapore Airlines in late January to early February, specifically targeting routes like Singapore to Bangkok or Kuala Lumpur, as this period often sees lower demand post-holiday season and better availability.
Sweet Spot
A fantastic redemption is flying from Los Angeles to Singapore for just 85,000 miles one-way in business class, where typical cash prices can exceed $4,500.
Routing Trick
Book a round-trip from Los Angeles (LAX) to Singapore (SIN) via Tokyo (NRT) instead of directly to Singapore, saving 10,000 miles and allowing a stopover in Japan, which can enhance your travel experience.
Avoid These Fees
Avoid flying with Spirit Airlines on routes to Las Vegas, as they often charge up to $65 for a carry-on bag and $45 for checked luggage, significantly increasing the overall cost of your trip.
