Quick Thoughts

Air France KLM Flying Blue Promo Rewards has long been a monthly award sale on select routes. These temporary sales are available for booking this month only (from February 1 to 28, 2022) and in this case they can be booked for travel from today through July 31, 2022.

For example, you can book tickets between New York and Paris for only 16,500 miles each way.

As is often the case with Flying Blue Promo Rewards, you can often get better award pricing to non-hub airports for Air France and KLM. For example, New York to Paris is 16,500 miles on many dates as shown above, whereas if you fly to Prague via Paris it’ll cost you fewer miles (albeit with slightly more to pay in taxes):

Because Air France KLM has variable pricing rather than award chart, the price will vary depending on your city pairs.

Note that as we reported a few months ago, Flying Blue once again includes Israel in its definition of “Europe”. We had previously reported that Air France no longer considered Israel part of Europe, but that changed. I haven’t checked every Promo Rewards-eligible North American city, but New York to Tel Aviv is certainly pricing out at 25,000 miles on some dates.

The newly expanded timeline for travel for Promo Rewards is nice — whereas you used to only have a two-month window to travel, it seems that the 6-month window (in this case from February 1st to July 31st) seems to be the new norm. Also note that due to the pandemic, Flying Blue allows changes on Promo Rewards (but not cancellations or refunds).
