Singapore KrisFlyer Sweet Spot
June 24, 2014
Singapore Airlines' award chart has an amazing sweet spot: Hawaii and Central America are in the same region!
Flights "within" the Hawaii/Central America region are only 35,000 Singapore miles roundtrip in economy and 60,000 miles roundtrip in business class.
That 35,000-Singapore-miles award would cost 80,000 United miles.

United No Longer Displays Singapore Award Space. Here’s How to Find It
December 14, 2013
Per this thread on Flyertalk, United.com no longer displays Singapore Airlines award space. This abrupt announcement might seem like terrible news to award bookers, but it's more of an inconvenience than anything else.
United.com is the easiest way to search for Star Alliance award space. It's far from a perfect booking tool, however.

Fantasy Becomes Reality: Singapore Suites From Singapore to Los Angeles
February 23, 2013
Pack your bags folks. Today, we're going on one of the most coveted First Class products out there. It's so luxurious that it's not even called First Class.
Singapore Airlines Suites were introduced in 2008 exclusively on their flagship A380-800. Ever since then, people have been hoarding their points for a chance to fly this room in the sky. For years, Singapore Suites could only be booked by using KrisFlyer points at an astounding 1 million miles roundtrip!
At the end of 2012, Singapore released their Suites product to saver availability on KrisFlyer.

My Experience With Booking Singapore Airlines Awards
February 15, 2013
Singapore Airlines is probably one of the best airlines in the world.
I've had the privilege to fly Singapore Airlines almost 2-4 times a year since I was born. I was even one of the first "children" to fly the nonstop LAX-SIN flight which was then dubbed as the A345 Leadership. Although I always flew in Economy, in the next few days, I'll be flying Singapore's Suites product from Singapore-Los Angeles. I've dreamed of this day since I first knew what the First Class product looked like.

There are two reasons I like to transfer Membership Rewards to Singapore KrisFlyer miles: cheaper domestic Star Alliance awards and it's the only way to get into Singapore's premium cabins.
Singapore Airlines is recognized as one of the most luxurious airlines in the world.
