🤘🏼 Epic new transfer bonus

Estimated read time: 3 minutes and 20 seconds

Good morning from beautiful Guangzhou!

I’m feeling the burn after five days of back-to-back flights, but nothing a little extra caffeine can’t fix.

Anyway, before my body forces me asleep, here’s what I’ve got for you:

• 🌎 Flying Blue Promo Rewards (December 2024)

• ✈️ 20% transfer bonus to… guess who?

• 💳 Current Transfer Bonuses

🌎 Flying Blue Promo Rewards (December 2024)

Another month (holy crap, it’s already December) means another round of Flying Blue Promo Rewards!

I’ve been on a BIG SkyTeam kick lately as you’ve seen, and this just makes it even better.

As you probably know by now, every month, Flying Blue (the joint loyalty program of KLM and Air France) releases discounted award flights for a handful of different routes.

And the discounts are gooood… like 15,000 miles good 😘

But per usual, you’ll need to make your booking by December 31, 2024, for travel valid until May 31, 2025, to get in on these deals.

This month, Flying Blue is featuring a few routes to/from North America over to Europe starting at that sweet 15,000-mile mark:

You Canadian folk will be pleased to see Montreal and Toronto on there. And New York is pretty much a given.

But Portland, Oregon, for 15,000 miles?? West Coast peeps rejoice! 🙌

Flying Blue is also featuring all sorts of other destinations like Europe to Osaka and even to Beijing for just 18,750 miles.

Thankfully, you can also transfer points from all major banks, which is why Flying Blue is one of the best and easiest programs to work with 🙂

Sometimes, those banks even offer transfer bonuses…. Oh, would you look at that! There’s one right now! 👇

✈️ 20% transfer bonus to… guess who?

That’s right, folks! The same day those Promo Rewards dropped, a hot 20% transfer bonus from UR Points to Flying Blue dropped, too.

20% might not sound like a lot, but when you pair it with those Promo Rewards above, it is fantastic.

For example, those 15,000-mile flights to Europe become just 12,500 UR Points with the bonus…

The 18,750-mile flights to Asia become just 16,000 UR Points.

But you don’t need to sit for 8-12 hours in economy to get value from Flying Blue miles or the transfer bonus.

For example, you can book domestic flights on Delta for just 8,500 Flying Blue miles.

With this bonus, that’s just 7,000 UR Points to fly around the U.S. on Delta.

Personally, I’m eyeing some other cool flights, like this one from Jakarta to Seoul next month.

18,500 miles for seven hours on Garuda is already a great deal, but knocking 20% off of the price makes it a FANTASTIC deal.

You could even book a flight from New York City to Buenos Aires on Delta for just 38,000 Flying Blue miles.

With this bonus, that’s just 32,000 UR Points for an 11-hour flight.

If you booked the same flight on the same day through Delta, you’d have to pay 60,000 SkyMiles (or 51,000 with the cardholder discount).

So here’s the bottom line:

Promo Rewards are freaking awesome. Flying to Europe for 12,500 points is awesome…

But Flying Blue miles are far more valuable than you think, whether that’s for flying to Europe, staying at home in the U.S., traveling around East Asia, or even South America.

If you don’t have any UR Points, apply for a card like this one to start racking them up.

Well, that’s gonna do it for this week, kiddos.

It was really a jam-packed week, so I hope many of you have learned a thing or two and were able to hop on these excellent travel deals.

For now, have a great weekend, and I’ll see you bright and early on Monday.

Cheers,
