Bank of America and Air France/KLM are teaming up to offer a solid bonus on the Flying Blue credit card! New cardholders can snag 70,000 Flying Blue miles after spending $3,000 in the first 90 days. But here's the kicker for status chasers: you'll also receive a total of 100 XP (Experience Points) - 60 just for getting approved and another 40 after meeting the minimum spending requirement. XP is what you need to climb the elite status ladder with Flying Blue, so this offer is a great head start!
The card itself got a refresh too! Now you'll earn 3x miles on dining in addition to Air France/KLM and SkyTeam purchases, plus the card is now a Visa Signature, unlocking additional perks. There are also new annual XP bonuses based on your spending: Earn 20 XP on your card anniversary, a further 80 XP if you spend $15,000 or more, and another 60 XP (totalling 160 XP) if you spend $25,000 or more annually. If you're eyeing Flying Blue status and can swing the spending, this card could be a shortcut to getting there. Just a heads up, some people are seeing a slightly different offer with a smaller miles bonus but a $100 statement credit. Check which offer works best for you before applying!
Why This Matters for Your Strategy
News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.
As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
