SINGAPORE- Based at Changi Airport (SIN), Singapore Airlines (SQ) launched KrisFlyer Milestone Rewards in early 2021. This program replaced Elite Gold Rewards and offers perks at Elite mile thresholds during a 12 month period. Members across all tiers now access these benefits without waiting for status upgrades.
Milestone Rewards start at 1,000 Elite miles and scale to 100,000, providing incremental value like bonus miles and vouchers. According to Mainly Miles, these rewards enhance loyalty for frequent flyers on Singapore Airlines and Scoot (TR) routes from Changi Airport (SIN).

Milestone Rewards track Elite miles earned in a calendar year from January 1 to December 31, separate from membership years.
Only miles from Singapore Airlines (SQ) and Scoot (TR) flights count, excluding Star Alliance partners. Since September 2025, ground spending with Kris+, KrisShop, and Pelago adds up to a capped amount toward milestones.
Members earn rewards automatically upon hitting thresholds, valid for 12 months unless stated otherwise. Track progress via the KrisFlyer app or website under “Rewards and Vouchers.” Extensions add three months if needed, despite standard terms.
