Accor offering a 30% transfer bonus to Air France/KLM Flying Blue

0

A 30% transfer bonus to Air France/KLM Flying Blue is normally well worth considering, but not all the time. You can currently get a 30% bonus when transferring Accor ALL Rewards points to Flying Blue, but this is one of those exceptions where it is, for the most part, largely ignorable unless you’ll be getting great value for an award flight redemption.

Quick Thoughts

Accor points normally transfer to Flying Blue on a 1:1 basis. If you were to do a minimum transfer of 2,000 Accor points, that’d net you 2,600 Flying Blue miles.

Unless you’re able to get particularly outsized value though, that’s a poor option for your points. That’s because Accor points are worth a fixed two Euro cents each. At current currency conversion rates, that makes 2,000 Accor points worth ~$46.55. Getting 2,600 Flying Blue miles in return makes that conversion worth 1.79 cents per mile. That’s certainly not awful if you are able to get outsized value, but if you wouldn’t be a buyer of Flying Blue miles at that price in cash, it’s probably not worth transferring Accor points either seeing as they’re a cash-like loyalty currency.

An exception would be if you have a nominal amount of Accor points and no plans to redeem them before they’re due to expire. If that’s the case, transferring those to Flying Blue could make some sense, even if it’s not an outstanding option.
