Singapore Airlines and Virgin America yesterday announced an expansion of their codeshare agreement to include a frequent flyer program partnership.

The tie-up will enable members of both airlines’ programs to earn and redeem miles for travel on both airlines.

Since the launch of the codeshare agreement in December 2012, Singapore Airlines customers have been able to enjoy seamless travel on Virgin America operated flights to more cities in the United States, including Chicago, Fort Lauderdale, Las Vegas, Palm Springs, Philadelphia, Portland, San Diego, Seattle and Washington D.C.

With the frequent flyer program partnership, Singapore Airlines’ PPS Club and KrisFlyer members are now able to earn miles when travelling on all Virgin America flights and redeem miles for travel on all Virgin America routes. Similarly, members of Virgin America’s Elevate program are able to earn and redeem points on Singapore Airlines flights.
