Air France – KLM Flying Blue Buy Miles 80% Bonus Sale Through July 9, 2021

Just a few weeks after the last campaign ended Air France – KLM’s Flying Blue launched a new buy miles sale that offers 80% bonus and is running through July 9, 2021.

Flying Blue members can purchase up to 300,000 per transaction, before the bonus. There is no limit on the number of miles that elite members can buy yearly.

You can access Flying Blue’s page for buying miles here.

Here’s the price:

The price of a mile when purchased at he 80% bonus threshold is 1.52 euro cents each which isn’t exactly cheap unless you can make a specific award work for you.

This particular campaign has a staggered bonus system:

• 4000+ Miles = 55% Bonus
• 12,000+ Miles = 65% Bonus
• 20,000+ Miles = 80% Bonus

Here is the chart to see the example:

Until June 29th you’re still able to book the current Flying Blue Promotional Awards:

Air France-KLM Flying Blue April Promo Awards For Travel Trough November 30, 2021 (Book By June 29)

I suggest to verify availability before buying miles for a specific flight and also check the pricing of revenue fares to compare.

Conclusion

Flying Blue miles come in handy at times (the easiest to book awards is to use their app), and the only way to get access to first-class La Premiere-cabin for which you need to be an elite member too and that is not available using SkyTeam partner programs.

Generally I have found Flying Blue miles quite useful for award flights especially under their popular promo awards. Taxes and fees can be relatively high so it’s always important to compare.

These are the Terms and Conditions for the promotion:

*During the promotional period, Elite members can receive a maximum bonus of 240,000 Miles when buying Miles, while Explorer members can receive a maximum bonus of 80,000 Miles.
