Singapore Airlines

This is one of those news items that I would never want to write., it is not a simple depreciation, but of an outright removal of one of the few opportunities to book a ticket with points to make the round the world tour.
In this article:
The news appeared like a bolt out of the blue, As of May 1, it will no longer be possible to issue RTW award tickets (Round The World) using points from the Singapore Airlines loyalty program, One of the two frequent flyers that made a complicated operation simple, that is, to encapsulate in a single PNR an itinerary to go around the globe.
Redeeming this ticket, touching seven cities around the world costs, or perhaps it would be better to say cost, 200,000 KrisFlyer miles in Economy Class, 280,000 KrisFlyer miles in Business Class, and 405,000 KrisFlyer miles in First Class to fly aboard all carriers Star Alliance.
As of May 1, however, this opportunity will be a distant memory of the past and for me, who always accumulated points in the Singapore Frequent Flyer is very bad news.
Only last year Singapore Airlines had placed a surcharge of 250$ for the issuance of this ticket, but there was nothing to foreshadow such a decision and on such short notice, in fact less than 20 days left to succeed in the miracle of finding all the flights and detaching all the tickets.
