Bilt Rent Day: 100% Bonus for Flying Blue Transfers
Bilt Rewards has announced another great promotion for the upcoming Rent Day on May 1st. This Rent Day, they have teamed up with Flying Blue, the joint loyalty program for Air France and KLM.
For one day only Bilt Rewards members can book flights to Europe for half the points. On May 1st, Bilt Points will be worth double when transferred to Flying Blue (1 Bilt Point = 2 Flying Blue Miles). That’s a 100% transfer bonus available only on May 1st.
To make this even sweeter, Bilt members will be able to combine this with Flying Blue Promo Routes to Europe and book for even fewer points, with flights starting at less than 6,000 Bilt Points each way. The Flying Blue May Promo Routes can be booked from May 1-May 31 for travel from May 1-October 31.
As a reminder, Bilt Rewards is completely free to join. You can also get the Bilt Mastercard so you can earn points quicker, but the card is not required to take part in most of these Rent Day promotions.
How it Works
- Link your Bilt Rewards and Flying Blue accounts in the Bilt Rewards app. Remember members will also earn 100 Bilt Points for linking their accounts
- Transfer your Bilt Points to Flying Blue on May 1st to get double the miles (i.e. 20K Bilt Points = 40K Flying Blue miles). The 100% transfer bonus is available from 12:00AM ET May 1 until 11:59PM PT May 1.
- Book any of the promo routes above between May 1st and May 30th to take advantage of the special rates.
