Flying Blue November 2026 Promo Awards: Up to 25% Off Through April 30

Flying Blue’s November 2026 Promo Awards bring discounted award seats to selected short, medium and long haul destinations, with travel permitted through April 30, 2027. The maximum reduction is 25% in miles, and bookings must be made by the end of November. Some of this month’s offers also cover US departures to destinations beyond Europe, a feature that has appeared for the second time.

For travelers with a flexible destination or travel date, the discount can lower the miles needed for an award ticket. Availability still determines whether a route and date work, and the mileage saving is only one part of the ticket cost: airport taxes and carrier surcharges are paid separately. Flying Blue has recently adjusted those charges, making some economy awards more attractive than they were before. The carrier imposed international surcharge is capped on premium economy, business and first class tickets, according to the source.

The current monthly offers are listed on the Flying Blue promotional awards page. The program releases new Promo Awards on the first day of each month, subject to seat availability. The discount has reached 50% in the past, but the maximum reported for the November 2026 offers is 25%.

Which departures qualify

The month’s destinations include short and medium haul options as well as long haul routes. The article’s destination images show the individual offers; the mileage amounts displayed for long haul promotional destinations refer to travel to or from Europe and show the lowest available price. The final award cost depends on availability for the chosen flight.

Short and medium haul awards

Short and medium haul awards are presented separately from long haul destinations. Travelers should check the monthly offer details and the calendar for their intended month, since award availability can vary across dates. The source recommends viewing the calendar one month at a time. Its guide to the Air France and KLM Flying Blue award calendar explains that booking approach.

Long haul and US departures

The long haul awards can be booked as one way trips, and the offer applies in both directions rather than only to travel originating in Europe. Flying Blue previously grouped European destinations into three zones. The source says the program now appears to use “EUROPE” across those former categories for long haul awards.

For this purpose, the listed Europe 1 countries are Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Luxembourg. Europe 2 comprises Austria, the Balearic Islands, Finland, Denmark, Italy, Malta, Norway, Portugal, Spain and Sweden. Europe 3 includes Albania, Algeria, Armenia, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Cyprus, the Canary Islands, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Libya, Lithuania, Latvia, Macedonia, Moldova, Morocco, Poland, Romania, West Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Turkey, Tunisia and Ukraine.

Some offers also cover US departures that connect through Europe. The source says these awards may theoretically allow a free stopover in Europe, but they cannot be booked online; travelers need to contact Air France or KLM to arrange one. That extra step may matter to anyone planning a longer visit during a connecting itinerary, so confirm the booking conditions before transferring miles or settling on a route.

Check the full cost before transferring miles

Flying Blue frequently sells miles with bonuses of 100% to 120%, and some accounts may have a current offer. The source links to a page where members can check eligibility. It also points to a monthly subscription option that credits miles to an account for a fee. Buying or subscribing may help close a mileage gap, but neither guarantees that a seat will be available on the desired flight.

Flying Blue also offers Extra bundles. The source lists Extra Essential at €379 and Extra at €699, and describes the bundle benefits as poor value compared with their prices. A separate guide covers the Flying Blue Extra Essential and Extra bundles. Some members in France with Flying Blue and co branded American Express cards receive the product as part of their card fee, according to the source.

The practical check is the complete cash and miles price for the exact itinerary. Award tickets still carry airport and security taxes and carrier surcharges, which cannot be paid with miles. The source advises members to verify both seat availability and these charges before converting card points into Flying Blue miles. Promo Awards earn neither miles nor Experience Points. Members can book reward tickets for themselves or another traveler on Air France, KLM and Flying Blue airline partner flights, subject to program, fare and operating carrier conditions.

La Première reward bookings are limited to Platinum and Ultimate members, with one reward seat per flight. Flying Blue asks customers traveling with an infant under two, or arranging travel for a minor traveling alone, to contact customer service. These terms can affect whether an advertised miles price suits a particular trip.

The November offers are most useful when a listed route fits the trip and the full out of pocket amount remains acceptable. Check the calendar date by date, compare the mileage requirement with the taxes and surcharges, and complete the booking before the month ends.
