What makes Air France/KLM Flying Blue different
Flying Blue releases new Promo Rewards on the first day of each month: reward tickets at up to 25% off, with long-haul promotions limited to Air France and KLM flights to or from Europe. How a flight earns Miles depends on the airline whose flight number is on the ticket. Flights marketed by Air France or KLM generally earn on the price paid, excluding taxes and fees, at 4 Miles per euro for Explorer members rising to 9 for Ultimate, so an expensive short flight can out-earn a cheap long-haul one. Tour operator fares and flights marketed by SkyTeam and other partner airlines earn on distance and booking class instead. As a SkyTeam programme, Flying Blue miles also open Delta, Korean Air, and Kenya Airways award space, a partner mix built around SkyTeam rather than the oneworld or Star Alliance networks that shape American, British Airways, and United. Elite status runs on a separate ledger called XP, which eligible flights earn by distance and cabin. Sustainable Aviation Fuel contributions and some co-branded cards add XP too: the US Air France KLM Visa Signature card earns up to 160 XP a year, enough to reach Silver at 100 XP but short of the further 180 XP that Gold requires.
