The Air France/KLM Flying Blue loyalty program offers some of the best opportunities to fly to Europe using points. With Saver awards and monthly promotions, Flying Blue provides excellent value for transatlantic travel. The program also includes family-friendly perks like 25% discounts for kids, free stopovers in Paris or Amsterdam, and the ability to connect anywhere in Europe for no extra miles.

Flying Blue Monthly Promo Awards

Every month, Flying Blue releases Promo Rewards, which are discounted award tickets, usually 25% off, on select Air France and KLM routes, including both long-haul and short-haul options. Promo Rewards are published at the start of each month and must be booked by the end of that month for travel typically over the next six months. These deals can apply to economy, premium economy or business class and are available for one-way or round-trip bookings.

Monthly Promo Saver Award Rates (one-way, U.S. to Europe):

  • Economy: 18,750 miles (reduced from 25,000 miles)
  • Premium economy: 30,000 miles (reduced from 40,000 miles)
  • Business: 45,000 miles (reduced from 60,000 miles)

Promo Rewards make it possible to book transatlantic flights for fewer miles than most other programs. You can often find availability even during peak travel periods if you’re flexible with dates and destinations. You can add a connecting flight within Europe for no extra miles if you find award space.
