Flying Blue Promo Rewards – Flights to Europe from 18,750 miles

Flying Blue is the frequent flyer program for Air France, KLM, Transavia, Aircalin, Kenya Airways, and TAROM airlines. Members can earn or buy miles and redeem them on an extensive network of over 30 partner airlines, including Delta and Westjet, in North America. This month’s Flying Blue Promo Rewards includes six North American gateways for flights to Paris and beyond.

Flying Blue Promo Rewards – June 2025

Flying Blue’s Promo Rewards offer monthly discounts—typically 25%—on award flights to specific destinations. These promotions are available for bookings made within the month and are valid for travel dates extending up to six months ahead. For June 2025, Promo Rewards presents an excellent opportunity for travellers from North America to Europe.

The discounted rates for North American gateways are as follows:

• Ottawa to/from EU: 25% off Air France Business Class – from 45,000 miles one-way
• Montreal to/from EU: 25% off Air France Economy Class – from 18,750 miles one-way
• New York to/from EU: 25% off Air France Economy Class – from 18,750 miles one-way
• Denver to/from EU: 25% off Air France Economy Class – from 18,750 miles one-way
• Las Vegas to/from EU: 25% off Air France Economy Class – from 18,750 miles one-way
• San Diego to/from EU: 25% off Air France Economy Class – from 18,750 miles one-way

These rewards are valid for travel bookings until November 30, 2025, and must be booked in June 2025.

While taxes and fees still apply and vary depending on the route and class of service, the significant mileage discounts make Promo Rewards a valuable tool for cost-conscious travellers. For example, the taxes and fees on Air France flights from Canada to Paris are as follows;

• Economy: 18,700 miles + $158 CAD
• Premium Economy: 26,250 miles + $232 CAD
• Business: 45,000 miles + $335 CAD

Ottawa to Paris in Business Class – 45k

Montreal to Paris in Economy – 18,750 miles

Availability can be limited, particularly during peak travel periods, so early booking is recommended. Stopovers can also be added for free by contacting customer service. At the time of writing this post, I am seeing decent availability from all North American gateways across the summer months, but September to November appears to be lean pickings.

Flying Blue Subscribe to Miles

Flying Blue offers a subscription program, “Subscribe to Miles,” that allows members to purchase miles at a favourable rate monthly. The program includes four subscription tiers:

• Starter: 2,000 miles for $34.20 USD per month
• Smart: 5,000 miles for $79 USD per month
• Advanced: 10,000 miles for $146 USD per month
• Complete: 17,000 miles for $227.80 USD per month

At the highest level (Complete), the cost per mile comes down to 1.34 cents per mile, which is much better than the typical rate in “Buy Miles” promotions (1.6-1.8 cents per mile). A key advantage of the subscription program is that the first installment of miles posts to your account almost instantly after subscribing, enabling immediate redemptions. Additionally, members can cancel their subscriptions at any time, even before the second installment is due.

Flying Blue – Subscribe to Miles

The subscription program creates a low-cost opportunity, even for someone starting with a zero Flying Blue balance, to take advantage of the December Promo Rewards. By subscribing to the Complete tier, a member can purchase 17,000 miles for $227.80 USD. With Promo Rewards offering discounted tickets for as low as 18,750 miles one-way in Economy Class, this subscription effectively unlocks award travel from North America to Europe at an exceptionally low cost.

By combining Flying Blue Promo Rewards with Subscribe to Miles, members can unlock significant savings compared to cash fares or other redemption opportunities to Europe from North America. Happy booking!
