Some of these experiences are specially curated just for Singapore Stopover Holiday passengers from the U.S.

To top off the deal, for a limited campaign period, travelers can take advantage of outstanding airfare-only deals on flights from the U.S. to Singapore and a range of Asian destinations including Bangkok and Bali, priced from $912.
