  • SIN-LHR $850+ in taxes??

    Hey guys,

    Was planning to use my miles to book an award business class from SIN-LHR and was stumped by the additional taxes and fees I had to pay. Is this normal?

    And why would anyone pay $678 in taxes for an economy saver award when i can buy a economy super saver for $1.1k

    i think the consensus is that it is seldom worth it to redeem for an economy class ticket.

    There are also certain airports where taxes are a lot higher than others (i think LHR is one of them) - but i'll leave that part to the expert flyers here.

      True, it's expensive ex-SIN/LHR on Krisflyer redemption.
