Some Amex cardholders have reported a new round of targeted Air France / KLM Amex Offers coming out over the past few days that are good for either 20,000 Membership Rewards points or $200 back (depending on your card offer) when you enroll and then spend $1,000 or more with Air France and/or KLM by 12/31/24.
The Deal
- A new targeted Amex Offer is out to get either 20,000 Membership Rewards points or $200 cash back when you spend $1,000 or more on flights departing the US and being charged in US Dollars at Airfrance.us or KLM.us. Enrollment is required and it is a targeted offer, so not everyone will see it.
Key Terms
- Targeted, must enroll
- Expires 12/31/24
- Flights must originate in the US and be charged in US dollars according to the terms
- See your offer for full details
Quick Thoughts
Note that the terms indicate that the flight must originate in the US and be charged in US Dollars to qualify. I know that award ticket taxes have triggered these offers before, which could make this a nice deal for anyone booking multiple tickets. Taxes and fees can add up to right around $1,000 one-way departing the US if you’re traveling as a family of four.
Personally, I’d prefer the version for 20,000 points as I value them at more than $0.01 per point, but unfortunately neither my wife nor I were targeted on any of our cards. That’s too bad as I am indeed eyeing another Air France redemption and this offer would likely put me over the top in wrapping up a booking. Sometimes we see these offers slowly roll out to additional cardholders, so I’ll keep my eye out.
Be sure you enroll in the offer before spending.

re: Amex and AF/KLM, we are overdue for a transfer bonus! We had 2 in 2023, 3 in 2022, and 2 in 2021, but no MR to Flying Blue transfer bonus in over a year.
