The Air France-KLM Flying Blue program has its monthly Promo Rewards promotion, whereby members can save 25% on select award tickets over a limited travel period. The program has just published its new Promo Rewards list for October 2026, offering discounted short haul and long haul awards for travel over the coming months.
There are quite a few destinations bookable with this promotion, including several in the Americas, with options in business class, premium economy, and economy. This has the potential to be a great deal.
What are Flying Blue Promo Rewards?
I’m a big fan of the Air France-KLM Flying Blue program, especially for long haul premium cabin redemptions. Not only does Flying Blue largely have attractive award pricing for business class travel, but the program also has access to more Air France and KLM award space than other programs.
The Promo Rewards offer is published every month by the Flying Blue program, and offers 25% discounts off select awards for travel on Air France and KLM. The Flying Blue program has dynamic award pricing, and this promotion specifically applies for the lowest, saver level award costs.
New Flying Blue Promo Rewards now live
Flying Blue has published its October 2026 Promo Rewards, valid for bookings between October 1 and October 31, 2026. Most of these Promo Rewards have long travel windows, and can be used for flights all the way through March 31, 2027.
As a reminder, Flying Blue has standardized saver award pricing, so ordinarily you’ll pay the following amounts for one-way transatlantic awards between Europe and most of North America, when booking a “Light” fare:
- One-way economy awards cost 25,000 miles
- One-way premium economy awards cost 40,000 miles
- One-way business class awards cost 60,000 miles
Let me emphasize that with the recent Flying Blue devaluation, the entry level pricing is now for a “Light” fare rather than a Standard fare, so it comes with fewer inclusions. For example, a long haul business class “Light” fare doesn’t offer any flexibility, and also doesn’t offer lounge access.
However, if you have Flying Blue Platinum status, then you still receive most of the perks of a “Standard” fare automatically. So as an example, a Promo Rewards ticket that costs 45,000 miles in business class for a “Light” fare would now cost 56,250 miles for a “Standard” fare.
Here are the awards that are available with the Promo Rewards list this month for travel between Europe and North America, along with the pricing:
- Save 25% on Air France economy awards between Europe and Houston (IAH), Montreal (YUL), Ottawa (YOW), and Raleigh (RDU) — starting at 18,750 miles
- Save 25% on KLM economy awards between Europe and Boston (BOS), Calgary (YYC), and Toronto (YYZ) — starting at 18,750 miles
- Save 25% on Air France premium economy awards between Europe and Las Vegas (LAS) and Miami (MIA) — starting at 30,000 miles
- Save 25% on KLM premium economy awards between Europe and Austin (AUS) and Chicago (ORD) — starting at 30,000 miles
- Save 25% on Air France business class awards between Europe and Seattle (SEA) — starting at 45,000 miles
- Save 25% on KLM business class awards between Europe and Mexico City (MEX) — starting at 45,000 miles
On top of that, the Flying Blue Extra program was recently launched (the cost starts at €379 per year), which is essentially a paid membership program that offers extra perks. One of the perks of Flying Blue Extra is access to additional Promo Rewards, so eligible members receive access to the following extra Promo Rewards availability to North America this time around:
- Save 25% on Air France economy awards between Europe and Vancouver (YVR) — starting at 18,750 miles
- Save 25% on Air France premium economy awards between Europe and New York (JFK) — starting at 30,000 miles
- Save 25% on Air France business class awards between Europe and Cancun (CUN) and Orlando (MCO) — starting at 45,000 miles
There are of course also Promo Rewards opportunities outside of North America, including some business class options to South America, so check out the full list.
All of the lowest priced awards in the above markets through March 31, 2027, should be bookable with the Promo Rewards pricing (though not necessarily the extra award availability that Flying Blue Platinum members receive). You can use all of these awards for travel to and from destinations across Europe, so you can travel beyond Amsterdam and Paris.
If you’re having trouble finding availability, remember to use Flying Blue’s secret award calendar. Also keep in mind that children ages two to 12 receive 25% off Flying Blue award tickets, including Promo Rewards.
Earning Flying Blue miles is easy
One of the things that’s awesome about the Flying Blue program is how easy it is to rack up miles:
- Flying Blue is transfer partners with Amex Membership Rewards, Bilt Rewards, Capital One, Chase Ultimate Rewards, and Citi ThankYou, meaning you can transfer points earned from a variety of cards
- Flying Blue sells miles directly, often at an attractive cost, and also has a Subscribe to Miles scheme
- Flying Blue has a co-branded credit card in the United States, which is quite lucrative
Bottom line
The Air France-KLM Flying Blue program offers a Promo Rewards promotion, whereby members can book discounted award tickets in select markets. This can be a great deal, especially when you consider how easy Flying Blue miles are to come by, and also how much award space is sometimes available through Flying Blue.
With the latest Promo Rewards, you can save 25% to several destinations in the Americas, with options in economy, premium economy, and business class. This has the potential to be quite a good deal, so if you have any travel you’re interested in booking, this would be a great time to do so.
