WestJet Rewards & Air France-KLM Flying Blue announce reciprocal frequent flyer agreement

The time has come for the teaser news we have been alluding to in lots of our WestJet Rewards posts in that you expect another partner to come on board with WestJet Rewards! As of today WestJet Rewards is now partnered with Air France-KLM Flying Blue!

Passengers can now accumulate their choice of Flying Blue Miles or WestJet dollars on all WestJet, Air France, and KLM flights

"The ability to earn Flying Blue Miles or WestJet dollars on Air France-KLM will bring significant benefit to guests of all three airlines," said Ed Sims, WestJet Executive Vice-President, Commercial. "We are confident that our members are going to love earning WestJet dollars while flying on the extensive Air France-KLM global network, and we are equally excited to welcome their frequent flyers aboard and offer them the opportunity to earn Flying Blue Miles on the growing WestJet network."

This is great news to the continued expansion of WestJet Rewards and even for Canadian Flying Blue members as they can now earn miles on domestic flights within Canada, to the U.S. and more.

Overall this is great news for members in both programs and it will just get better when redeeming WestJet Dollars for Air France or KLM flights becomes an option by the end of the year and vice versa for Flying Blue!
