The Amex Offers program has just rolled out a great new targeted offer for the purchase of Air France-KLM flights, which could be worth considering for anyone planning travel. We saw this offer a couple of times in 2022, so it’s nice to see it return for 2023.
In this post:
Spend $1,000+ with Air France-KLM, save $200
With a new targeted Amex Offers deal, you can receive a $200 statement credit when you spend $1,000 or more with Air France-KLM by July 30, 2023.

There are some terms to be aware of:
- The flight needs to be booked directly through the Air France or KLM website or app
- The flight needs to originate in the United States and be charged in USD
- While you need to book travel by July 30, 2023, it’s okay if you travel on subsequent dates
- With Air France, the offer excludes Air France Music, Air France Saphir, Air France Shopping, convention, conference, and seminar services, baggage drop off, group reservations, La Boutique Air France, parking, Stress Free Flying workshop, flight crew training, and the Flying Blue Store
- With KLM, the offer excludes KLM Package Deals, City Pass Amsterdam, hotel bookings, car rentals, ground transportation, tours, airport transfers, equipment services, Shop@KLM, purchases of miles, lounge access fees, KLM Jet Center, and KLM Wanna Gives

Ideally you’ll see this offer on the Amex Platinum
This offer is targeted, though it’s possible you’ll see it on multiple of your Amex cards. If so, I’d highly recommend registering your Amex Platinum Card for this offer. That’s because the Amex Platinum offers 5x points on airfare purchased directly with airlines.
I value Membership Rewards points at 1.7 cents each, so to me those points alone are worth an incremental 8.5% return. On top of that, the Amex Platinum offers excellent travel protection, should you experience irregular operations.
In other words, if you took advantage of this offer with the Amex Platinum for a $1,000 ticket, you’d receive a $200 statement credit and would earn 5,000 Membership Rewards points, which I value at a $285 return on $1,000.

Bottom line
There’s a new targeted Amex Offers deal for a $200 statement credit when you spend $1,000+ on an Air France-KLM flight. If you’re planning travel on Air France or KLM, this has the potential to be a great deal. Ideally you’ll see this offer on the Amex Platinum, so that you can really maximize your points.
Were you targeted for this Amex Offers deal, and if so, do you plan on taking advantage of it?
I got the offer on my Amex green card.
I saw the offer yesterday on my Amex platinum, and tried adding it today. It seems to have gone away in a single day.
As a data point, I booked a one way from Athens on airfrance.us for Delta metal and it triggered the email from Amex Offers. Terms state that flight must originate from US but it seems not the case always. Hopefully I see the credit post in the next week.
Do you receive the credit?
Let us know if you see the credit posted. I booked a oneway from Paris to Denver with fees of $750 and need to either use points or cash to book another flight from Copenhagen to Paris and the terms say it can be in one or more transactions. I was wondering if they will really accurately decipher if the charges are originating in the US or not.
I'm also not sure if my Air...

I'm also not sure if my Air France purchase will count as the system had an error and made me call in complete the transaction so it shows on my cc as Air France and not airfrance.us. If anyone has any data points on this, let me know.
This also works on the fees for award tickets if you're booking multiple people it's not hard to get over $1k.
I got this amex offer on my gold card!
Ben - I just registered for this offer on my Platinum and if I’m reading the T&Cs correctly I could hypothetically book a flight for a family member or friend as it does not seem to require the card holder to travel. Does that seem accurate?
Definitely you can book for someone else, the name doesn't need to match the credit card!
