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.

Round-trip economy cash fares to Melbourne track close to Sydney, from about S$900 to above S$1,500 in peak weeks. Business fares cover a wide range (roughly S$4,300 to S$8,000 round trip), so a business redemption tends to return strong value per mile when cash prices sit at the upper end.

Small things travellers like to know about Melbourne.
- Singapore passport holders need an Australian ETA (subclass 601) from the official AustralianETA app before flying.
- Trams inside the CBD’s Free Tram Zone cost nothing; beyond it, use a myki card or supported contactless payment on trams, trains, and buses.
- The SkyBus runs frequently between the airport and Southern Cross Station, typically around 30 minutes outside peak traffic.
- Melbourne’s weather is famously changeable, so pack layers and a light jacket in every season.
- Many sights sit outside the city (Great Ocean Road, Phillip Island, Yarra Valley), so check drive times when planning day trips.
