Fly Air France Business Class to Europe for 48K Miles

.

Fly Air France Business Class to Europe for 48,000 miles each way (thanks to a Flying Blue award promotion and 25% Chase Ultimate Rewards transfer bonus to Air France KLM Flying Blue) from several U.S. and Canadian cities, with the best availability in January-February 2026. If you can get the dates to work for you, this is a great deal, especially if you've earned plenty of Ultimate Rewards points via the Chase Sapphire Reserve or Chase Sapphire Preferred, or Chase Ink Business Preferred Credit Card.

In January-February, routes between Paris CDG and Boston, Detroit, Houston, New York JFK (only some flights), Newark, Orlando, Vancouver, and Washington, DC are ideal because the A350 offers Air France's new business class suites (look for 14 rows of business class to identify aircraft with the new A350 business class cabin).

You'll need to be flexible, since many dates are more expensive. Here are the routes and rough availability, although of course space is dynamic and will book out soon.

Where to Stay in Paris

Among our favorite Paris luxury hotels are Cheval Blanc Paris, La Reserve Paris, the Four Seasons George V, and J.K. Place Paris, all of which we can reserve with Virtuoso or preferred partner beneifts. In Amsterdam, we're excited for the brand new Rosewood Amsterdam, which we can reserve with Rosewood Elite amenities.

But Paris and Amsterdam can also be the jumping off point for many other European destinations, given the ease of intra-Europe travel.
