Flyertalk user Rashadik found this deal from Stockholm to Singapore…$1410

If you’ve never been to Singapore, you should go. It’s one of my favorite cities.

It’s serviced by 787s and A350s…

I haven’t personally flown Qatar’s A350 If you’re interested in seeing how dope the product is you can check out GSTP 360 tour

YHBU has a list of deals from CPH to Auckland worth checking out as well. 

This means that you’d be taking the World’s longest flight from Doha to Auckland…one that Zac from Points from the Pac reviewed earlier this year. It’s serviced by a 777-200LR and features a similar business class to what I flew from Hanoi to Bangkok

Don’t live near Stockholm or Copenhagen? You can position there.

Read our Monkey Miles Monday Memo where we talk about how positioning for flights can save tons of money and be a fun adventure.

You could arrive a day or two ahead of your flight and check out Stockholm. Such a beautiful city and I’d highly recommend the Hilton Stockholm

Credit to AA to earn tons of RDM, EQM, and most of all…the EQD ( Elite Qualifying Dollars )

The flight from ARN to SIN ( 13460 miles r/t ) would earn the following:

  • In ‘R’ business class
    • RDM : 13460
    • EQM: 20,190 ( 1.5 x 13,460)
    • EQD: $2712 (13,460 * 0.2)

The Chase Sapphire Preferred® is exceptional starter card and offers transferrable Ultimate Rewards, and pairs well with other Chase cards.
