If you’ll be booking a flight with Air France or KLM by the end of the year, there is a new targeted Amex Offer that you should look to sync up. This time around, I don’t see an offer for points but on almost all of our Amex cards I found an offer for $200 back when you spend $1,000 or more air AirFrance.us or KLM.us. See our Current Amex Offers database for a ride range of other new offers out today.
The Deal
- A new Amex Offer is out for $200 back when you spend $1,000 or more in one or more eligible transactions with Air France or KLM by 12/31/21 [enrollment required]
Key Terms
- Basically excludes everything except airfare originating in the US charged in US Dollars and booked directly through Air France or KLM
- See offer for full details
Quick Thoughts
Just as was the case with a similar offer that expired on 10/31, this could be a fantastic deal if you’ll be booking flights with Air France or KLM as it is a significant rebate if you’re able to meet the spend. This return will stack with your mileage earning from the flight itself, which could be decent when credited to either Flying Blue (which is doubling elite credit on paid flights this year) or to Delta. The deal could be sweetened even further if you’re booking flights and applying Delta Global Upgrade Certificates — paying for economy class and upgrading to business and getting a better in-flight experience on top of everything else.
Now that a couple of US cities have made their way back onto Flying Blue Promo Rewards, this offer could also make for a nice stack if you’re able to travel from Miami or Chicago (and you have enough passengers for award taxes & fees to meet the spending requirement).
If you are able to book or upgrade to business class, I have to say that I was particularly impressed with KLM’s new 787 business class. The seats were comfortable and while familiar they included some thoughtful touches that made it one of the better business class seats I’ve flown. From well-placed storage for your phone and easy-access international outlets to a nice privacy shield, it was really quite good.
And don’t forget that flying KLM you’ll also get a Delft blue house. It’s a fun gimmick. Again, these are only available for business class passengers on intercontinental business class trips.
Overall, this offer is a solid deal that’s worth syncing up if you’ll be booking a qualifying itinerary before the end of the year.
