Marriott Bonvoy Improves KrisFlyer Miles to Points Conversion Rate and Raises Transfer Cap
Marriott Bonvoy has announced a permanent enhancement to its partnership with Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer, effective from 1 April 2026. Improved Conversion Rate: - Old: 2 KrisFlyer miles = 1 Marriott Bonvoy point - New: 4 KrisFlyer miles = 3 Marriott Bonvoy points (a 50% boost) Higher Annual Transfer Cap: - Old: 180,000 KrisFlyer miles per year → 90,000 Marriott Bonvoy points - New: 250,000 KrisFlyer miles per year → 187,500 Marriott Bonvoy points Greater Redemption Potential: Members can now unlock significantly more points in a calendar year, opening access to a wider range of stays across Marriott’s global portfolio. Why It Matters This change makes KrisFlyer miles more valuable when converted, allowing travelers to accumulate Marriott Bonvoy points faster and redeem them for premium stays, experiences, and destinations worldwide. Marriott’s Statement Ramesh Daryanani, Managing VP of Global Sales, Loyalty Operations & Partnerships (Asia Pacific excluding China), emphasized that these enhancements are a direct response to member feedback and are now a permanent benefit, not just a limited-time promotion. In short, if you’re a KrisFlyer member who enjoys Marriott properties, this update doubles the value of your transfers and expands your annual redemption opportunities.
