Can I transfer Flying Blue miles to someone else?

Transfer your Miles Gift your Miles to another Flying Blue member and help them get the Miles they need! Your Miles will be transferred within 72 hours. Please note that a fee applies. The exact amount of the fee depends on how many Miles you're transferring and is shown when selecting the number of Miles.



Yes, you can transfer Flying Blue Miles (the loyalty currency of Air France and KLM) to another member, but the process is not free and involves specific rules. In 2026, Flying Blue allows you to "Gift" or "Transfer" miles in increments of 1,000 via their online portal. However, you will be charged a processing fee for the transfer, which often makes it less cost-effective than simply booking a flight for that person using your own account. It is important to note that you cannot transfer Flying Blue "XP" (Experience Points), which are used for elite status; only the spendable Miles can be moved. A more efficient "peer-to-peer" method introduced recently is "Flying Blue Family," which allows up to two adults and six children to pool their miles into a single shared balance for free. This "pooling" feature is the preferred 2026 method for families to combine their points toward a major reward ticket without paying the individual transfer fees.
