I like this bonus more than you might think. With Tiffany Funk (former One Mile at a Time / Point.me) running the Flying Blue loyalty program, things are likely to improve. Right now, they have some really good award rates at times, though they often fluctuate into the absurd. 60,000 points for Business class to/from Europe from the US is solid, but the surcharges have gotten way out of control (about $600 one way).

Also, while Flying Blue miles expire, it’s a reasonable 24 months and any activity (such as a simple 1,000 point transfer in) will extend it. They used to have archaic rules where flight activity miles weren’t extended with other activity but they came to their senses a few months ago and it’s now simplified with all miles in one pool and all extended by any activity.

I will note, though, that when Air France is releasing space to partners, it’s much cheaper to book those flights using JAL Mileage Bank! I was able to book a one way from Paris to New York for just 42,000 JAL miles and less than $300 in taxes and fees. However, it’s *considerably* easier to earn American Express points than JAL so I really think this is worth your consideration. As always, run searches for what you actually might / will book before transferring!

Side note: The easiest way to earn JAL Mileage Bank miles are through Rove. You can get 1,500 Rove Miles with our exclusive partnership just by signing up using this link.
