  1. Love all your information!!! We are planning to come back from Paris next year (flights aren’t open yet). BUT, since Chase has the bonus…would you recommend transferring our points anyway? I know it’s not certain, but I’m pretty sure we can get availability by searching as soon as the dates open up.

  2. Just booked ATL-FRA for 17K miles for 2 people in economy! Stacking Promo Rewards + Chase Transfer Bonus 🎉

  3. i didn’t know you could leave the date field blank to get the calendar view. this is a game changer. thank you!

  4. I'm waiting for Singapore airline business class's promotion. Do you have anything on them ?

  5. love your videos. I booked my Etihad and Singapore flights because of your videos!

  6. So, I’m a little confused. I see that ATL is offered, but is that ATL to anywhere in Europe? How are we supposed to know what cities we can fly to with the promo offers?

  7. hi Max, nice video! Do you know if AirFrance/KLM allow stopovers to be different cities, not Paris/Amsterdam? Say I want my stopover to be Madrid before arriving to Lisbon… I scoured the internet but didn't see much info :/

  8. does it ever happen to you where your transfer miles takes days to transfer to the airline partners? I did my first two transfer from capital one to Singapore airlines on the same day and one came immediately and the other one is stuck. it's been 3 days already. the customer service peeps are not helpfll at all.

  9. Their website just posted that they’re having tech issues. I’ve been trying to do one way and it won’t go through after typing in passenger details. Hopefully it’ll be fixed soon! Phone reps can’t see/access the promos

  10. Anyone having issues with Air France and klm sites? The Air France app is also not letting me log in.

  11. Anything out of San Francisco? I can’t find any dates with low miles for a family of 4 😏

  12. Hey Max. If an airline overbooked a flight and we are booking a reward flight, are we more likely to get downgraded than people who paid with cash?

  13. We have a Flying Blue reward flight in May (SFO to Zurich) which I booked months and months ago. Is it worth it to look for a promo flight and then cancel my existing flight? Is there a change fee, do you know?

  14. So for example for Long Haul I see Dubai for 22,500 points. Is that flying OUT of Dubai or INTO Dubai? Because I am based out of Los Angeles.

    Edit: Just checked LAX to Dubai. Only saw green color. I ran same search you did and saw orange color. So Im a bit confused. How do I know there's monthly promo out of LAX?

  15. How come the taxes and fees for May and June are much lower right now (~ $68) than they were back in Jan when I was booking my Paris trip for May? I paid $112 (one way) and 13.2K in points per person.

  16. Very helpful video for someone unfamiliar with Flying Blue. I live in Western NC and from cursory searches it appears the closest airport I could drive to is ATL, or do a positioning flight to another NE city like BOS or NY. Are you familiar with any flights from the NC area for Flying Blue? Also, how often do you see these bonuses transferring points from Chase UR to flying blue? We spend most of our travel time in Western Europe so trying to decide how many miles we should consider "banking" for the bonus. TIA.

  17. Excluding promos, Air France seems like a pretty steep trade off between points and cash out. As an example I ran a test for four people NYC -LIS and got 180k points and $990 out of pocket on Air France vs 267k and $251 out of pocket on United. Meanwhile, the chase portal can give do it for 193K and no cash out. Is there some sort of sweet spot to on air france?

  18. How you figure out which flights will be compatible on KLM or AirFrance? The long haul flight deal just says Montreal but when I search a U.S. airport like Atlanta or DC to Montréal it says there is nothing available.

  19. Yesterday I booked flights to UK and back for my wife and I via Flying Blue. The flights are on Virgin Atlantic, and the cash price for them was $5,995, and we paid 99,000 points + $713. With the Chase transfer, I only had to spend 80,000 points to get the 99K required. So our net redemption value was 6.6 cents per point!

    We actually could have done a little better, but we were limited to a fairly tight date range due to work obligations.

  20. I’m seeing some that are like 1,250,00..that’s right a million points. Is that correct? Or a glitch?

  21. When I search a discount flight I don’t get green low fare alerts not orange promo alerts. What am I doing wrong?

  22. We are booking a flight from Washington to Edinburg, it works with the 12,500, but trying to get back from Edinburgh to Washington we never could find a 13, 125. They all went like 25K points and $250 , so we booking a Paris back to Washington trip for 13,125 and $165 and doing like a train or plane back to Paris.

  23. I've found that if I decline cookies on the website, I can search. Did that tonight using Firefox and had no issues.

  24. How long is Chase offering transfer bonus for Flyiing Blue? Have some travel in november and would like to combine Chase transfer bonus + Flying Blue offer once rewards for late 2023 are opened up.

  25. any comparision between Flying Blue Promo Rewards and british airways avois rewards ?

  26. Checking the Flying Promo Rewards link today 5/1/23 and it said “no promo rewards available”. Does anyone see that too or just me? 🤷🏻‍♀️
