Fly Air France Business Class or KLM Business Class to Europe for 50,000 AMEX Membership Rewards points, thanks to the current 20% AMEX transfer bonus to Flying Blue (ends 10/31), or 60,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards points each way with points earned from the 125K Chase Sapphire Reserve or the 90K Chase Ink Business Preferred Credit Card from several U.S. cities this winter or even summer 2026, with the best availability January-March 2026. If you can get the dates to work for you, this is a great deal.
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. See below for the routes and rough availability, although of course space is dynamic and will book out soon.

Where to Stay in Paris
See our Top 10 Paris Luxury Hotel Offers. 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.
