Air France and KLM, two of the largest airlines in Europe, share a loyalty program known as Flying Blue, which has new promotional deals on select routes every month. For September 2024, these offers can be booked for travel dates through February 28, 2025, though flights are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
“Get up to 25 percent off and go further with your miles!” the program shared about the promotion on its website. “New Promo reward tickets are released on the first weekday of each month. You may spot your dream destination; where would you like to go?”
Travel + Leisure found these routes on sale with wide-open availability from these North American cities over the next six months:
