A short-haul KrisFlyer redemption to Phuket (HKT) at 13,000 miles one-way Economy. A direct beach route many Singaporeans use for long weekends and dive trips.

What each cabin costs, in miles and in cash.
KrisFlyer Saver Award miles are one-way from SIN. Cash ranges are an editorial baseline that shifts with booking date and season. Taxes are payable in cash regardless of cabin.

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.
Phuket, Thailand.

A short-haul KrisFlyer redemption to Phuket (HKT) at 13,000 miles one-way Economy. A direct beach route many Singaporeans use for long weekends and dive trips.
Cash economy fares to Phuket are low, so an economy award returns modest value per mile — many travellers pay cash here and save miles for longer-haul cabins. The redemption is most useful for peak holiday weeks (December, school breaks) when cash fares climb.

Small things travellers like to know about Phuket.
- Phuket has no mass transit — pre-book airport transfers or use ride-hailing apps (Grab, Bolt); metered taxis are scarce and bargaining is common.
- The west-coast beaches (Patong, Kata, Karon) get the sunset; the east and south coasts are quieter and calmer for families.
- During the May–October monsoon, red flags mean dangerous rip currents — swim only where lifeguards are posted.
- Buy a tourist SIM (AIS or TrueMove) in the arrivals hall; island coverage is good and cheaper than roaming.
