I recently did a
video on getting more value from your miles, and EVA Air’s mileage programme is an excellent way to get great deals. Here’s a guide on booking flights – especially Singapore Airlines ones – with EVA Air Infinity MileageLand (IML) miles.
Why use EVA Air Infinity MileageLand?
For the uninitiated, it is possible to get Singapore Airlines to certain destinations for fewer miles with EVA Air’s Infinity MileageLand programme. Here are a few destinations compared for one-way business class flights:
Destination |
Using KrisFlyer Miles |
Using IML Miles |
Savings |
Japan / Korea |
52,000 miles |
40,000 miles |
~23% |
Europe |
103,500 miles |
80,000 miles |
~22.7% |
USA |
107,000 to 111,500 miles |
97,500 miles |
~8.9% to 12.5% |
A return trip to Europe can cost a
whopping 47,000 fewer miles when you book through EVA Air instead of Singapore Airlines. With savings as much as 23%, you are able to save on a significant amount of miles. Better yet, the availability for flights seems to be better when booking via EVA Air as far as I can tell....
