Flying Blue’s buy miles bonus has returned not too long after we last saw it. The offer provides up to a 100% bonus when you buy Flying Blue miles and this time the 100% level starts at 24,000 miles. If you are short some miles for a redemption or want to speculatively buy for if and when we see a another 50% off business class promo reward you’ll want to check out this offer. This offer is available until February 27, 2022
The up to 100% bonus offer:
Up to a 100% bonus when you buy Air France KLM Flying Blue Miles. Valid until February 27, 23 Click here to learn more and to buy miles.
– 50% bonus when you buy 4,000 to 10,000 miles
– 70% bonus when you buy 12,000 to 22,000 miles
– 100% when you buy 24,000 or more miles
Now you may be asking why this is an offer of note. It is for several reasons, the first of course is to top off your account for an award if you happen to be shy a few thousand miles however the second is the big one. That second reason is when Air France KLM offer those 25 to 50% off business class Promo Rewards. For example the last time they had 50% off in December 2022 you could book round trip flights in business class between Montreal and Amsterdam for 55,000 miles.
If you don’t have any Flying Blue Miles at all you could purchase miles at the 30,000 level (they only sell them in 2,000 miles
increments) for US$1005 and you would end up with 60,000 miles. Depending which province you live in that works out to about C$1,400 to $1,500. You would then redeem 55,000 of those 60,000 miles for the business class reward flight and on top of that you would need to pay close to $800 in fees and taxes. Add the two together and you would be looking at paying upwards of $2,300 for a round trip business class ticket that would cost you in the neighbourhood of $3,000 to $5,000 or more. And that’s why this can be an offer of note.
If you are in a position where you are willing to pay just under $2,500 for flights that costs 50 to 100%+ more than that, this is an offer to consider. You also have to take into account that we don’t know when we will see 50% off business class reward flights from Canada so you’d be purchasing the miles speculatively.
