Please do tell, even if by PM. I'm saving my remaining KF miles for one last redemption, and if things are going to change, I'm going to use them earlier rather than later.

It's nothing major and worth getting too upset about, just more evidence of cutbacks...if this is true of course, and only SQ LPP can confirm....
You can earn miles when you shop in-flight or make purchases via mail order.
Number of Miles You Will Earn
One KrisFlyer mile for every S$1 spent.
Purchases from KrisShop will cease to earn KrisFlyer miles with effect from 01 June 2008, 0000 hrs (Singapore Time). KrisFlyer miles earned for purchases of KrisShop items up to and including 31 May 2008, 2359 hrs (Singapore Time) will continue to be credited to members' accounts.
For more information on KrisShop, please visit www.krishop.com
Ensuring the Miles Are Credited into Your Account
Present your KrisFlyer Membership Card to the cabin crew member when he or she collects your purchase order.
Miles will be credited into your KrisFlyer account approximately six to eight weeks after your transaction. Please login to check your KrisFlyer statements online.
Are they trying to be efficient here? by saving time required to make a purchase? The FA no longer needs to collect one's KF card, enter it into their sales terminals. Sales data no longer have to be collected to be uploaded to kf for miles crediting.
This is in line with their mission statement -
1. To devalue krisflyer miles
2. To issue fewer KF miles
3. To reduce krisflyer benefits
4. To reduce operating costs
.....
Well done krisflyer!
1 mile per s$1 spent is no big deal anyway. You'll get more miles by spending on your credit cards anywhere. 1.2 miles per S$1 spent on Citi PremierMiles, some dbs cards. Its interesting how banks are getting more generous with awarding miles, while krisflyer is being devalued.
