Cents per mile = (round trip cash midpoint × 100) ÷ round trip miles required. cpm is invariant under the trip-type toggle — only the absolute miles, cash and savings amounts change. Advantage cpm is roughly half Saver because the miles cost roughly doubles for the same seat. Miles and tax estimates as of April 2026.

A medium-haul KrisFlyer redemption to Dubai International (DXB), a daily Singapore Airlines nonstop of about seven and a half hours. The route suits a city-and-desert break or a stop on the way to Europe or Africa.
Economy cash fares to Dubai face competition from several Gulf and connecting carriers, so economy award value per mile is modest. Paid business fares on the nonstop sit around S$4,000 or more return, which lifts the business redemption to mid-range value per mile at a much lower mileage cost than Europe.
