Singapore to extend expatriates for another year

SINGAPORE: The flag carrier said on Thursday that KrisFlyer Elite and PPS Club members whose statuses are due to expire between March this year and February next year will have them automatically extended for another year.

Singapore opened its borders last year with vaccinated travel lanes VTLs, and currently has active VTLs with 24 countries.

The Government froze new sales of VTL bus and flight tickets until Jan 20 due to concerns about the rapid spread of the Omicron coronavirus variant in many countries.

The move was intended to limit Singapore's exposure to imported Omicron infections. The government has said it will reduce ticket sales and VTL quotas after Jan 20.
