    About Pelago

    Pelago is a travel experiences platform by Singapore Airlines (SIA) that connects your journey from the skies to the ground.

    You can choose from over 200,000+ activities and experiences from more than 70 destinations worldwide, earning KrisFlyer miles while you're at it too.

    And yes, this includes SIA destinations, spanning the Asia-Pacific region to Europe. Think ninja training in Japan, rolling wine barrels in Australia, and ghost hunting in Singapore - all super cool activities that you can book directly on the platform.

    How do you pronounce the platform's name, though? Well, Pelago comes from the word "archipelago" - a group of islands. So it can be "pear-ler-go" or "per-lah-go." It really is up to you!

    As long as it's said with good vibes, then you're all good.

    When was Pelago launched?

    Pelago was launched in June 2021, right smack in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. It might have been a bad time for the travel industry. But the company has not only survived but thrived to become what it is today.

    Is Pelago legit?

    You might be asking, is Pelago legit to begin with? Well, yes. The company is a part of the Singapore Airlines family and an extension of your journey from the skies to the ground.

    What can you do on Pelago?

    From airport transfers to city passes and Instagrammable tours to theme park tickets, it's easy to make travel easy again when you book on Pelago.

    Is Pelago owned by Singapore Airlines?

    Yes, Pelago is owned by Singapore Airlines. When you book activities in Singapore and the rest of the world, you can earn and burn KrisFlyer miles. So, KrisFlyer members, rejoice!

    You'll get to level up your miles game, easy. How?

    Well you can start by earning 1 KrisFlyer mile for every S$1 spent on the platform. And if you'd like to, you can also utilise your KrisFlyer miles as a payment method too.

    For instance, instead of forking out USD37 for a snorkelling trip in Nusa Penida, Bali, you can use 5,756 KrisFlyer miles as payment.

    How do I contact Pelago?

    Whether you need help with an existing booking or enquiring about an activity that you plan to book, you can always get in touch with the Pelago team at any time.
