Singapore Airlines: KrisFlyer Programme Celebrates 25 Years!

SilverKris Lounge
KrisFlyer is marking two major milestones as the Singapore Airline (SIA) Group's lifestyle programme celebrates it's 25th anniversary while also marking the milestone of crossing eight million members in January 2024.

The KirsFlyer reward programme introduced by SIA allows its loyal fliers to explore extensive dining, shopping and a variety of other experiences on top of earning and redeeming miles. As SIA puts it, ‘be rewarded for doing the things you love’. With this, KrisFlyers get to accumulate miles to redeem or upgrade their next flight as well as mix miles and cash to offset the cost of tickets. 

Marking 25 Years to KrisFlyers

SIA launched the frequent flyer rewards system all the way back in 1999, marking its 25th anniversary this year. On this happy occasion, SIA also announced another milestone as the membership programme reached eight million members in January 2024!

Today, KrisFlyer is a market-leading lifestyle-centric rewards programme thanks to the strong support of our members, who enjoy wide-ranging accrual and redemtopn opportunities beyond flights to various needs in their daily life. We look forward to celebrating out 25th anniversary and KrisFlyer’s membership milestone with these wide-ranging promotions. We will continue to find ways to enhance the programme’s value to our members in the coming years says Mr. Dai Haoyu, Acting Senior Vice President Marketing Planning, Singapore Airline.
