Flying Blue Rewards are one of the best features of the program because they let you redeem fewer miles for the same flights.
Each month, Flying Blue releases new discounted routes with 25% off the miles required for select Air France and KLM flights to and from Europe. These often include Canadian departures.
Since you can now transfer American Express Membership Rewards points to Flying Blue at a 1 to 1 ratio, Promo Rewards make your points go even further.
And if you’re traveling with kids, you’ll save even more with the 25% child discount.
You’ll usually find good availability if you’re flexible with your dates and destinations. You can also add a connecting flight within Europe for no extra miles.
Promo Rewards are one of the easiest ways to book transatlantic flights for far fewer miles than most other programs.
Here is how the Flying Blue Promo Rewards work and current Promo Rewards for February 2026.

How the Flying Blue Promo Rewards Work
You can save up to 25% of miles on redemptions in economy, premium economy, and business class reward flights on selected routes.
This applies to both long haul and short haul flights, and it works for one way or round trip bookings on Air France and KLM.
Monthly Promo Award rates for one way flights from Canada to Europe can include departures from Ottawa and/or Toronto:
Promo Rewards can also include connections within Europe through Paris or Amsterdam.
New Promo Rewards are published on the first day of each month, and you’ll need to book within that month. You’ll usually have up to six months to travel, giving you plenty of flexibility.
And if your home city isn’t included this month, consider repositioning to a promo departure city to take advantage of the savings.
AWP TIP
If you don’t see a Promo Reward on your exact travel date, you can unlock the full monthly calendar by leaving the dates blank in your search.
Last summer, we were planning a trip to Portugal and found Promo Rewards to Lisbon on Air France.
We booked two one-way business class seats via Paris for just 45,000 miles each.
It was an incredible deal and one of our favourite Flying Blue redemptions so far.
Promo Rewards for February 2026
You’ll get 25% off the required miles for booking completed in February 2026 and travel before July 31, 2026.
The February Flying Blue Promo Rewards promotion includes transatlantic routes between Europe and the following North American cities:

Bottom Line
Flying Blue Promo Rewards are one of the easiest ways for Canadians to save miles on trips to Europe.
When a Canadian city appears on the list, you’ll find great value with 25% discounts on economy, premium economy, or business class redemptions.
If your home airport isn’t included, you can still take advantage by repositioning to a promo departure city.
You’ll earn Flying Blue miles in Canada by transferring points from American Express® Membership Rewards® cards at a 1 to 1 ratio. Cards like the Amex® Cobalt, Amex® Platinum, andAmex® Business Platinum make it easy to collect plenty of points from your everyday spending.
You’ll also enjoy Flying Blue’s Family program, which lets you pool miles with up to 8 members. And the monthly Promo Rewards offer discounted rates that make flights even cheaper.
When it’s time to redeem, Promo Rewards are one of the best ways to use Flying Blue miles, letting you book long haul flights for far fewer miles than most other programs.
