Travelers looking for a deal might want to consider taking advantage of a new transfer bonus promotion involving Air France and KLM’s Flying Blue loyalty program.
You can transfer Chase points to Flying Blue and receive a 25% bonus. For example, you can transfer 10,000 Ultimate Rewards points to Flying Blue; you’ll end up with 12,500 Flying Blue miles. (Point transfers must be made in increments of 1,000 points.)
The Flying Blue 25% transfer promotion is valid through 11:59 PM ET on April 30, 2024. (Promotional offer terms and conditions apply.)
You can occasionally snag some decent premium cabin deals through Flying Blue. (Remember, they’re a SkyTeam airline and you might be able to redeem Flying Blue miles for award flights on other carriers.)
Remember that Amex cardmembers now have access to a “lite” point.me membership that should display Flying Blue award prices.
Happy transferring, redeeming, and traveling!

Do you get MQD and Mile credit when you fly on KLM with Flying Blue reward points? I know if I fly on a Skymiles reward ticket on Delta issued ticket, I get 1MQD per every 100 points redeemed; plus, the miles that I flown will count toward my Million Miler Status.
No, sir.
Not sure where to post this…. but I hope you will pickup this comment and repost on your blog… I tried your email link in the About Us section, but it did not work… I think this is a good MQD mileage run deal on AF because I have been looking to do a mileage run deal in July. Typically, July is a very expensive travel month (because of Summer and schools are out). Anyway, I found this deal on AF and it is available in various dates departing in July and up to Aug 9.
It is on AF, JFK-CDG-HND or NRT on Premium Economy. It is a 4 days trip (save lots in hotel cost). Here is an Example:
Outbound: 7/4/24 – AF 5 depart JFK at 6:30p arrive CDG at 8:05a+1, connecting to AF 246 departing CDG at 12:20p arriving NRT at 9:10a+1 (July 6)
Return: 7/8/24 – AF 245 depart NRT at 11:15a arrive CDG at 7:05p, connecting to AF 12 departing CDG at 8:30p arriving JFK at 10:35p (same day)
*You will get a similar result for going to HND, but the Hotels in the HND area is almost 2 to 3X more expensive than NRT; plus, both the arrival and departure time for NRT (I think) is must better.
The total airfare, which I just bought through Chase Ultimate Reward today is $2,632.80 (or 175,454 Ultimate Reward Points) on Premium Economy Class A ticket. The approx. R/T air mile is 19,300 miles. A “Class A” ticket on AF carries a 25% multiplier for MQD calculation, which gives us a MQD: 4,825. This is a 183% return. 4 of these trips, and combine with some of our usual everyday travel flights will sure give us to Diamond in no time!
I hope your readers will find this useful..!
Thanks!
