When your miles are expiring there are plenty of ways to extend them, depending on the program. In general programs let you extend your miles by earning miles in an account or by redeeming miles.

You can fly non-stop between the U.S. and Singapore in premium economy for just $890 roundtrip. That’s an incredible fare in my opinion. In fact coach is often more expensive than that.

Again they created the window where Star Alliance awards could be cheaper (albeit with fuel surcharges) and again offering a window of savings to throw away a partner flight segment at the end of a one way award booking.
That’s a pretty good indication that things wouldn’t last — that the Star Alliance award chart would be devalued too.

Singapore Airlines makes business and first class award seats available mostly to their own KrisFlyer members. It is very rare to be able to book these seats with miles in partner programs like United MileagePlus or Air Canada Aeroplan. Right now though you can book Singapore Suites on at least one route using partner miles!
