KrisFlyer, the lifestyle rewards programme of the Singapore Airlines Group, has unveiled a new partnership that now allows its 11.8 million members worldwide to redeem flight miles for cruise vacations too.

In collaboration with travel loyalty solutions provider Arrivia, KrisFlyer members can utilise miles through KrisFlyer Cruise, Arrivia's exclusive cruise platform.

Miles can be used for over 30,000 itineraries from more than 40 leading cruise lines worldwide, including Royal Caribbean International, Disney Cruise Line, Norwegian Cruise Line, AmaWaterways, Princess Cruises, and more.

Additionally, KrisFlyer members can continue to earn two KrisFlyer miles for every US$1 spent on cruise fares.

All cruises can be booked directly online, or members can connect with cruise experts for assistance.

“Cruises represent one of the fastest-growing and highest-value travel categories. By offering cruising as a redemption option to KrisFlyer members, we are giving members access to more rewarding experiences while helping drive stronger engagement within the programme,” said John Williams, COO, Arrivia International.
