GREAT Singapore Airlines Premium Economy Fares From The US To Asia!

Published: September 13, 2016

Early last year Singapore Airlines announced that they’d be introducing a premium economy product, which they’ve progressively been adding throughout their longhaul fleet. While the hard product for Singapore Airlines’ premium economy looks pretty average (similar to domestic first class within the US), you can bet that they’ll have an amazing soft product, as Singapore Airlines consistently does across all cabins.

Anyway, while we’ve seen some pretty specific premium economy fare sales, Singapore Airlines has an incredible premium economy fare sale at the moment, for travel between the US and Singapore.

You can fly roundtrip premium economy from New York, Los Angeles, or San Francisco, to Singapore, for ~$1,150 roundtrip. Your outbound travel can occur between November 1, 2016, and June 30, 2017.

Availability for the fare is wide open across all routes, so you shouldn’t have any issues with that. The best place to book is directly on Singapore Airlines’ website, which should reflect the ~$1,147 fare for travel from any of the above cities.

Singapore-Premium-Economy-Fare-1

This ticket should book into the “P” fare class, which earns a good number of miles with many frequent flyer programs. Check out whereotcredit.com for full details. You earn at least 100% miles with a vast majority of partner programs, and Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer even awards 110% miles for premium economy fares.

Bottom line

While premium economy of course won’t be as nice as business class, it’s still a very comfortalbe way to fly. I’d actually like to review a longhaul premium economy product sometime soon, so this fare tempts me. I’d guess that Singapore Airlines has among the best premium economy soft products in the world, given how excellent they are in all their cabins.

If you’re looking to get to Asia on a revenue fare at a reasonable price, this is a value that’s tough to beat.

Is anyone considering flying Singapore Airlines premium economy to Asia at this price?

My wife and I booked on SQ for travel in premium economy in March 2017.

Thanks, @Samantha (and @Tim!)! Very good to know about lumbar support - my girlfriend has back problems, so being able to cross products off the list makes it easier to route. :)

I have a question about this. My mom, sister and I want to visit my mom's hometown in Nagoya this upcoming summer. While SQ does fly there, it appears they don't let you book connecting flights on partner Star Alliance Airlines online so the only option they're giving me is LAX-NRT-SIN-NGO for $6000 per person in premium economy. Thanks but no thanks. They are selling premium economy between LAX and NRT for $650 though, but that would require positioning flights from Ohio to LAX and from NRT-NGO. Does Singapore simply not have the ability to book flights on partner airlines? I would highly doubt it since that would seem like an incredibly counter-productive measure. If I called in to their reservations center and asked them, "Please book us in premium economy on your flight from Los Angeles to Tokyo, as well as flights from Dayton to Los Angeles and Tokyo to Nagoya" would they be able to do that. Would it be more expensive than booking the flights separately? It would be far more convenient to be able to just book it all as one reservation.

@Tim G. Good to know, thanks! Have you had a chance to try out JAL's PE? http://www.jal.co.jp/en/inter/service/premium/seat/sky_shell_seat.html I'm wondering if it is an issue with all the shell seats or if it is unique to AF.

Agree with Tim G. Both the AF PE and the CX PE (and the economy seats when I flew it back in 2012) were terrible. Although the concept was interesting so as to not disturb those behind you, the seats offer absolutely no lumbar support and resulted in a terrible back pain after a 14 hour flight. I actually preferred the seat in its upright position. The SQ PE seats are infinitely better for that one reason. I prefer the layout on the A380 over their B777 however.
