The Air France KLM Flying Blue loyalty program is well-known for its monthly rotating series of Promo Rewards, which offer 25–50% discounts on short-haul and long-haul redemptions on Air France and KLM flights.
The program has just released its Promo Rewards for July 2024, and this time, there are discounts available for economy, premium economy, and even business class flights to destinations across the world, including North America.
If you’re looking for an affordable way to get to or from Europe and beyond between now and the end of December 2024, be sure to take a look at the Promo Rewards this month.

Last fall, Air France KLM Flying Blue harmonized standard award pricing, which means that the minimum price you’ll pay for flights from North America to Europe is the same whether you fly from Boston or Vancouver:
- Economy: starting at 20,000 miles (15,000 miles with a 25% Promo Reward)
- Premium economy: starting at 30,000 miles (26,250 miles with a 25% Promo Reward)
- Business class: starting at 50,000 miles (37,500 miles with a 25% Promo Reward)
Promo Reward tickets are available for one-way and round-trip flights, allowing for flexibility in your travel plans. Promo Reward discounts are only applicable on the lowest standard award pricing when available, and not on dynamically priced flight segments.
Keep in mind that Flying Blue Promo Rewards come with a booking deadline. You must book the July 2024 Promo Rewards during the month of June; however, the travel window extends all the way through December 31, 2024.
