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 July 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. Business class awards to & from New York are even being discounted, and start at just 45,000 miles, so that’s an incredible redemption opportunity, assuming you can make the (limited) availability work.

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 July 2026 Promo Rewards, valid for bookings between July 1 and July 31, 2026. Most of these Promo Rewards have long travel windows, and can be used for flights all the way through December 31, 2026.
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:
- 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
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 Denver (DEN), Montreal (YUL), and Raleigh (RDU) — starting at 18,750 miles
- Save 25% on KLM economy awards between Europe and Chicago (ORD), Miami (MIA), Montreal (YUL), Portland (PDX), and Toronto (YYZ) — starting at 18,750 miles
- Save 25% on Air France premium economy awards between Europe and Los Angeles (LAX) — starting at 30,000 miles
- Save 25% on Air France business class awards between Europe and New York (JFK) — starting at 45,000 miles
- Save 25% on Air France business class awards between Europe and Sint Maarten (SXM) — starting at 63,750 miles
Let me emphasize that the most exciting offer here is being able to get a discount on Air France business class awards to or from New York, as it’s extremely rare to see Promo Rewards options for business class on United States flights.
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 Atlanta (ATL) and Ottawa (YOW) — starting at 18,750 miles
Note that those who belong to the Flying Blue Extra program can redeem these awards for themselves or others, as long as the miles come out of their account.
All of the lowest priced awards in the above markets through December 31, 2026, 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
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. This time around there are options in economy, premium economy, and business class, with the business class discount for Air France business class to and from New York being the most exciting option.
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.
Are there any Promo Rewards you’re considering booking?
45K for JFK-CDG in J with AF is a steal, if you can actually find availability… easy 1:1 transfers from most bank programs, too; no excise fees with Amex, thankfully, too. I really like FB, when it works out!
The only really worthwhile offer is the ex-GRU one; it's 64k but they're not allowed to charge YQs from Brazil.
Twisted cramped uncomfortable seats = ludicrous .
