KrisFlyer miles can be redeemed for award flights on Singapore Airlines and its partner airlines. The number of miles required for a flight is based on a region-based award chart, making it relatively straightforward to understand the cost in miles. Singapore Airlines offers two types of award redemptions:

Here’s a snippet of how Singapore prices its saver award flights:
According to Singapore, the world is basically split up into 13 different zones. Zone 12 refers to the USA (West Coast) & Canada, while Zone 13 refers to East Coast USA & Houston.
