From HEL to SIN for $322

Sometimes things are unintentionally funny. A recent discussion of a mistake fare on FlyerTalk is a good example. KLM have botched entering the fare from Helsinki to Singapore (and other Asian destinations), leading to the unbelievably low fare above. Regrettably, it’s a V class fare, so gets only 25% miles on Flying Blue.

However, some Americans on the forum were really excited about this fare (since it give 100% miles in some frequent flyer programs). This led to discussions about the cheapest way to go to HEL. It’s even funnier since this fare requires a connection in Amsterdam. So now you know it: The best way from HEL to SIN is via Amsterdam, but you must first find a way to go to HEL.

  1. I don’t know the best way to get to HEL, but I’m sure it’s paved with good intentions…

  2. From SIN to HEL you travel easily via any major religion. The way back is much harder to find:)
