Smart Recommendations
Best Time to Book
Book award flights to Europe from the U.S. during mid-January to early February, as airlines often release additional availability due to lower demand post-holiday season, particularly on routes like New York (JFK) to Paris (CDG).
Sweet Spot
You can redeem 10,000 Flying Blue miles for a one-way flight from Paris to various cities in Europe, where typical cash prices range from €100 to €200.
Routing Trick
Book a round-trip from New York (JFK) to Paris (CDG) via Accra (ACC) for 10,000 miles instead of a direct flight, saving approximately 2,000 miles.
Avoid These Fees
Avoid flying with Air France on transatlantic routes, as they often impose a fuel surcharge of around $700, significantly increasing your total fare.
