Anatomy of an Award: Bogota to Buenos Aires in Business Class for 20,000 Singapore Miles

Last week I redeemed 20,000 Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer miles and $27 for a one way trip in Business Class from Bogota to Buenos Aires with an overnight in Lima. I will fly the award in a few months.

That’s over seven hours of flying up front for only 20,000 miles. United would have charged 40,000 miles for me to book the exact same award space.

Review: Vilnius Business Lounge, Priority Pass Affiliated

Almost every time I fly, I get free lounge access one of three ways:

International Business and First Class passengers get lounge access throughout the journey, and I fly a lot of international premium cabin awards.
Most airports have one or more lounges affiliated with Priority Pass.
