Why this redemption is worth chasing
3.2¢ per point beats the 1¢ baseline you'd get from cash-back redemptions by a significant margin. The cash ticket runs around $700 for economy class — a good return on 22,000 points. Worth doing when you have the miles and a flexible date.

- Earn or transfer the points.If you don't already have 22,000 Air France/KLM Flying Blue points, transfer from a flexible bank-points card. Transfers usually complete within minutes.
- Book immediately after the transfer lands. Award seats can vanish between your transfer and your booking. Have the search results open when you transfer.
- Pay any fuel surcharges or taxes. Most awards carry $50-$300 in cash fees on top of the miles. Check the estimate before you transfer — it should still be a fraction of the cash ticket.
