Elite Members of the Golden Circle program will be able to enjoy an accelerated upgrade to the KrisFlyer Elite Gold (equivalent to Star Alliance Gold) Status which will give them complimentary access to Singapore Airlines’ airport lounges worldwide. PPS Club and KrisFlyer Elite Gold members (click HERE for a quick guide to obtaining elite status with the KrisFlyer program) will enjoy an accelerated upgrade to Golden Circle Jade membership. With Jade status, members can benefit from complimentary room upgrades to a choice of welcome amenities and more (read more about the Golden Circle Jade Status here!).
Golden Circle members will also be able to put their GC Award points towards KrisFlyer miles and vice versa (conversion information is not available at the time of writing). It will definitely be interesting to see what the conversion rate for GC Award Points to KrisFlyer Miles is like once it is made public. KrisFlyer Miles can also be converted into GC Award Points which can be used to redeem for dining credit (perfect for the newly-launched global dining program, The Table by Golden Circle), spa credits or even free nights at any participating Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts worldwide.
These benefits are available to Golden Circle and KrisFlyer members from 28 September 2016. For more information, visit infinitejourneys.com.
