The Offer
- Every month Flying Blue (AirFrance & KLM) offer discounted award flights. This month they are offering 50% off economy flights from IAD & IAH
The Fine Print
- Valid on flights from September 1st until October 31st, 2018
- Must book by July 31st, 2018
Our Verdict
Flying Blue moved to a more complicated award chart last month.  You can transfer points into the Flying Blue program from:
- Chase Ultimate Rewards
- American Express Membership Rewards
- Barclays Arrival Premier
- SPG Points
- Citi ThankYou Points
- Diners Club
Flights drop to 10,750 one way to Europe with this promo, good deal in that respect but the issue is the taxes & fees charged ($230+ round trip).
Don’t forget to add Barclays Arrival Premier miles to the transfer partner list!
Houston-Paris
two persons:
58 000 Miles
+ 408.56 USD
In the unlikely event you can find space on Delta, there should be no fuel surcharge.
1. Promo awards only work for AF/KLM flights
2. Award rates for Delta flights are significantly higher than AF/KLM flights under the new system. I haven’t found any business award on delta to Europe for less than 71000 miles while you can find award space for 53000
Headline still says June.
Thanks & fixed
