Rewards programs like Chase Ultimate Rewards<\/span>, American Express Membership Rewards<\/span>, Capital One<\/span>, Bilt<\/span> and Citi ThankYou Rewards<\/span> occasionally offer bonuses for transferring points or miles to partner hotel and airline programs. These transfer bonuses<\/span> are one of the best ways to unlock outsize value from transferable rewards currencies.<\/p>\n Chase Ultimate Rewards is offering a particularly enticing transfer offer right now: a 20% bonus on points transferred to Flying Blue<\/span> through May 27. Here’s what you need to know.<\/p>\n Flying Blue is the loyalty program for Air France, KLM and Transavia. With hubs in Paris and Amsterdam, Air France and KLM offer extensive connectivity to destinations across Europe and beyond.<\/p>\n However, you’re not limited to flights operated by Air France, KLM and Transavia when redeeming Flying Blue miles. You can also use your miles for flights operated by many other airlines, including:<\/p>\n You can book award flights with Flying Blue miles directly on the KLM<\/span> or Air France<\/span> website. While Flying Blue uses dynamic pricing<\/span>, the program still regularly offers solid value \u2014 especially on economy awards.<\/p>\n And if you’re flying with a child, the program offers a 25% discount on award tickets for children between the ages of 2 and 11. When booking a flight for multiple passengers, the total number of miles needed is listed, but on the next page, you can break down the fare cost per passenger by selecting “View trip details and fare conditions.” The 25% discount isn’t available on some awards, such as the program’s already reduced Promo Rewards and on awards operated by partners.<\/p>\n Flying Blue also offers a free stopover program<\/span>, allowing you to spend extra time \u2014 up to 12 months \u2014 in a layover city. This works on most award tickets, including partner awards. However, these awards can’t be booked online; you must call Flying Blue to book.<\/p>\n Typically, Chase Ultimate Rewards points transfer to Flying Blue<\/span> at a 1:1 ratio. However, with the current 20% bonus that runs through May 27, for every 1,000 Ultimate Rewards points you transfer, you’ll receive 1,200 Flying Blue miles.<\/p>\n Reward your inbox with the TPG Daily newsletter<\/p>\n Join over 700,000 readers for breaking news, in-depth guides and exclusive deals from TPG\u2019s experts<\/p>\nFlying Blue program basics<\/h2>\n
