Buy on Amazon and earn miles on Flying Bluethe Air France-KLM group's frequent flyer programme. This is the partnership that Amazon and Air France-KLM have just set up. The airline group will now be able to offer its 20 million Flying Blue members new ways to earn Miles.

Flying Blue members in France, the Netherlands and Sweden can now earn 3 miles for every euro spent on Amazon.. There are, however several restrictions. The purchase of books, products containing nicotine and tobacco, gift cards and games consoles are excluded from earning Miles. For full details, visit the Flying Blue website.

This new opportunity adds to the list of Flying Blue advantages. The programme already allows you to earn and spend Miles with over 30 participating airlines.. As well as with a hundred or so commercial partners. Members can currently use their Flying Blue Miles to book flight tickets, hotel rooms or rental cars. They can also make purchases from partners or make donations to charities.

Flying Blue is constantly evolving with new offers. Last year, for example, the programme launched Flying Blue Family. This programme enables members to pool their Miles and access rewards more quickly.

" We are delighted to offer a new opportunity to earn Miles through this new partnership with Amazon. This offer will enable us to involve and reward our loyal Flying Blue members even more. "said Ben Lipsey, SVP Customer Loyalty and Head of Flying Blue.

" This new agreement reinforces the lifestyle aspect of our programme. You can earn Flying Blue Miles not only when travelling on Air France, KLM or Transavia, but also when making everyday purchases.he adds.
