Singapore to Zurich with KrisFlyer Miles
A long-haul KrisFlyer redemption to Zurich (ZRH), the gateway to the Swiss Alps and lakes. The nonstop is the shortest of Singapore Airlines’ Western Europe flights, and the airport train station puts Lucerne and the mountains a short rail ride away.
Zurich in business is one of the popular long-haul redemptions in the KrisFlyer chart — you are effectively getting 4.6 SG cents of value for every mile you spend.
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.

A long-haul KrisFlyer redemption to Zurich (ZRH), the gateway to the Swiss Alps and lakes. The nonstop is the shortest of Singapore Airlines’ Western Europe flights, and the airport train station puts Lucerne and the mountains a short rail ride away.
Zurich is priced in the same Europe award band as London and Paris, and paid business fares on the nonstop often run near S$10,000 return, so Saver Business tends to return strong value per mile. Singapore Airlines-operated awards carry no fuel surcharge, while KrisFlyer passes on carrier surcharges for partner awards on SWISS, so the taxes line differs by operating airline.

Small things travellers like to know about Zurich.
- Zurich Airport has its own train station; trains reach Zurich HB (main station) in about 10–15 minutes and connect directly to Lucerne, Bern, and Interlaken.
- Price a Swiss Travel Pass or Half Fare Card against point-to-point tickets if your plan includes several mountain excursions.
- Switzerland uses the Swiss franc, not the euro; cards are accepted almost everywhere, but carry a few francs for small kiosks.
- Many shops close on Sundays outside train stations and the airport, so plan groceries and shopping around that.
- Swiss sockets are Type J; slim two-pin Type C plugs fit, but Singapore three-pin chargers need an adapter.
