A couple of days ago we said there were no promo awards available from Canada this month. That was based on what Flying Blue published on their main Promo Award page. However there is another page on Air France’s site and that pages shows otherwise. In fact it show that the newest set of Air France KLM’s Promo Awards have three cities
for travel out of Canada! With promo awards the
discount
ranges from 25 to 50%
off the regular amount of miles required to redeem for these flights. As
you can see just by the
discount this can be a very good offer if you get 50% off for Business
Class! However we don’t get any 50% offers once
again but we
do get 25% off which can definitely be utilized by some! While 25%
isn’t as good as 50% of course, it still is
something to look at if you were planning travel in the first two months
of the year.
Offer Details:
August Promo Awards – Save 20% to 50% on the Award Miles usually
required for an award ticket. Destinations vary by each promotional
period. Full Details Book by Aug 31 for travel Oct 1 – Nov 30, 17
Here are the Canadian offers available for booking this month for travel in October and November
Don’t
have all the miles? You could
always consider
transferring Starpoints earned via the Starwood Preferred Guest Credit Card from American Express
to Flying Blue. The card has a 25,000 Starpoint bonus right now which
translates to 30,000 Flying Blue miles! You can add in even
more miles with the Marriott Rewards Premier Visa card,
its 30,000 point sign up bonus translates to 10,000 Starpoints which
means another 10,000 Flying Blue miles. That’s almost enough miles to cover one way in Business Class.
