Other benefits await those who purchase the afternoon tea experience. Every purchase of afternoon tea experience or KrisFlyer Experiences redemption enters customers into an e-raffle for a chance to win attractive prizes such as deluxe overnight stays at Fairmont Makati, and the grand prize of a pair of round-trip Singapore Airlines business class tickets to Singapore with a luxurious two-night stay at Raffles Singapore.
The collaboration offers customers a world-class travel experience through culinary adventure. “Our carefully curated Singapore Airlines Café afternoon tea experience at the Writers Bar offers customers a glimpse into exciting flavors from around the world, and invites individuals to visit unique destinations in Singapore Airlines’ extensive network. We look forward to offering customers a world-class travel experience when they travel with us to embark on their next culinary adventure,” said Liwei Tai, general manager in Philippines at Singapore Airlines.
“Mastercard is excited to partner with Singapore Airlines and Raffles Makati to bring people closer to their culinary passion – and each other. At Mastercard, we know that shared experiences matter more than things. This specially curated afternoon tea experience will bring Mastercard cardholders – and their loved ones – on an exploration around the world through food, elevating their culinary experience and creating truly unforgettable memories for them,” said Simon Calasanz, country manager in Philippines at Mastercard.
Singapore Ambassador to the Philippines Constance See said the event is a culinary diplomacy using food to promote understanding and tradition. It is especially meaningful this year because of the celebration of the 55 years of Singapore-Philippines relations.
“Over the past five decades, Singapore and the Philippines have forged a strong and fruitful partnership and enjoy robust cooperation in many areas including trade and investment. Most importantly, people to people ties have flourished. Travel, of course, played an important role in the flow and exchange of ideas, people and culture,” said See.
