Your company's blue credits remain valid for two complete calendar years, along with the year they are first credited to your account. They expire on 1 March. For example, credits earned in 2023 will expire on 1 March 2026.

During the COVID pandemic, we extended the validity of blue credits. As a result – and to go back to the normal scheme – credits earned in 2021 and 2022 will expire on 1 March 2025 at 6 AM CET.

If your company already has a discount agreement with us, you are not eligible for bluebiz. Please speak with your account manager to explore the best option for your company.

Each calendar year members first need to spend 5,000 euro (or the equivalent currency) before credits are added to their account. The calculation is made on the tickets included in the bluebiz account overview within the calendar year (so not on the issue date or flight date on a ticket). As soon as this level has been reached, all eligible tickets within the calendar year will receive blue credits. And promotions will also be applied.

The turnover required for the entry level in the bluebiz programme can vary per country. Check out the overview here to find out what your entry level is.

To earn blue credits, you must fly with Air France, KLM or one of the partner airlines in bluebiz. Here is a summary of the airline combinations that allow you to earn blue credits.

With our clear incentive formula, it's easy to calculate how many blue credits your company earns per flight. A blue credit equals the value of 1 US$.

To calculate the number of blue credits that your company earns per ticket, you can use the following formula:

The ticket fare and carrier surcharge are indicated on your ticket, with the carrier surcharge listed as the YR charge. One blue credit is equivalent to 1 US$. It's important to note that the YR-F charge is not included in the bluebiz earning scheme.

Yes, you can earn blue credits on seats and baggage as long as they are part of your ticket price.

Yes, if you're a member of the Flying Blue programme, you can personally earn Miles on a ticket that has been paid for with blue credits.

No, it's not possible to earn blue credits on a ticket that has been paid for with Flying Blue Miles.

Not all fares are eligible for blue credits, as some special fares are excluded from the bluebiz programme. You can find the fares which are excluded on the incentive page here.

The bluebiz programme is reserved for companies whose employees travel with Air France, KLM and partner airlines. Tickets of passengers working as a sub-contractor or working as a consultant for the member company cannot be claimed in the bluebiz programme, even if the ticket is paid by the company. Tickets of shareholders or family members or any other non-employee are also not eligible. For questions regarding eligibility of passengers, please contact our service desk.

No, the bluebiz programme is exclusively for companies and their employees. It's not possible to earn blue credits on tickets for family members or other passengers who aren't employed by your company. If the reservation includes non-employee passengers, such as family members, you should not mention your bluebiz number in the reservation. In these cases, use the retro claim form to claim the tickets of employees.

However, you can create a Flying Blue Family account to earn Miles collectively on flights purchased for or by your family members.

If you book a reservation that includes non-employee passengers, such as family members, you should not mention your bluebiz number in the reservation. Instead, you can retro claim the ticket of your company employee using the retro claim form.

Please note that you can only retro claim tickets up to six months* after the completed travel date.

*New members can retro claim tickets for flights that were taken up to three months prior to their enrolment.

Every week after you and/or your colleagues have flown with Air France or KLM, you'll see your bluebiz overview will be updated. Please keep in mind that for tickets of partner airlines it may take longer before tickets appear in your overview.

Please remember that blue credits will be added once you reach the bluebiz entry level.

Your company's blue credits remain valid for two complete calendar years, along with the year they are first credited to your account. They expire on 1 March. For example, credits earned in 2023 will expire on 1 March 2026.

To earn blue credits in the bluebiz programme, companies are required to achieve a minimum bluebiz turnover of 5,000 euro (or the equivalent in local currency) per calendar year. Once this entry level is reached, your company will receive credits earned on the first 5,000 euro in addition to credits earned on the turnover that exceeds the 5,000 euro threshold. This means that your company will receive blue credits on both the first 5,000 euro of bluebiz turnover and any amount beyond that.

The entry level for the bluebiz programme varies depending on your location, as it's based on the local currency. Check out the overview here to find out what your entry level is.

The bluebiz entry level is based upon your companies turnover in the calendar year. The calculation will be based on all tickets that appear in your statement within a calendar year, regardless of their issue date or flight date. Turnover is calculated based on the ticket fare and carrier surcharge indicated on the ticket, with the carrier surcharge listed as the YR charge. However, the YR-F charge is excluded from the bluebiz earning scheme. The same turnover is used to calculate your blue credits. Any tickets that are not eligible for the bluebiz programme will not be considered for turnover.

All tickets in your account will be displayed with 0 blue credits until the threshold is reached. 

Once you reach the minimum bluebiz turnover of 5,000 euros (or the equivalent in local currency) in a calendar year, you'll receive the eligible blue credits in your account.

Blue credits can be used for tickets, upgrades and other flight-related services across our global network. To book a ticket, you must have enough blue credits to cover the entire cost, including taxes and surcharges. 

Each blue credit has a value of 1 US$, which means that if your company has earned 500 blue credits, you'll have 500 US$ to spend on tickets, upgrades or flight-related services.

At bluebiz, we don't limit your options with award booking classes. This means that your company can book any available flight that is offered on the Air France and KLM websites, as long as there are enough blue credits to pay for the complete ticket, including taxes and surcharges.

Blue credits have a value equivalent to your local currency or the currency used on the airline websites. This means that the ticket price in local currency is the same as the price in blue credits. The country in which your bluebiz account is established defines the currency that will be applied.

You cannot combine blue credits with any other form of payment. This means that if you wish to purchase a ticket with blue credits, you will have to use them to pay for the entire ticket price, including taxes and surcharges.

Yes, you can use your blue credits to purchase a ticket with a future departure date, as long as your blue credits are still valid at the time of booking. Once blue credits have expired, they can no longer be used and will be removed from your account.

Do you use a travel agency? They can request payment in blue credits for tickets using the bluebiz designated travel agent service. Talk to your travel agent to help with your reservation. If you haven't given authorisation to your travel agency yet, you can find all the necessary information here.

These benefits apply exclusively to flights that are ticketed and operated by Air France and KLM.

The Corporate Benefits Program offers several benefits that include flexibility, priority and recognition.

As a corporate traveller, you can enjoy several benefits that include flexible ticketing deadlines, allowing you to book now and pay later. This provides the opportunity to secure your fare while still allowing time for further consideration. Additionally, if the ticket related to your booking has not yet been issued, you can cancel the booking free of charge. Name changes on the ticket can also be made at no additional cost.

In the event of a full flight, corporate travellers are guaranteed a seat in Economy Class on long-haul flights.

Your colleagues will enjoy priority boarding at the airport. 

The trip doesn’t go as planned? Your colleagues are amongst the first ones to be rebooked. They will also have priority on the waiting list of full flights.

Our staff recognise bluebiz members both on the ground and in the air, to support a seamless travel experience.

Imagine you have an employee who is supposed to fly to a conference tomorrow, but another colleague needs to go instead. Just change the name of the traveller at no charge – it's that simple.

As a bluebiz member, you can easily change the name on your Air France or KLM tickets for free. Just remember that this service is only available for flights ticketed and marketed and operated by these airlines. To qualify, you must include your bluebiz number in your booking.

* This benefit does not apply to tickets paid for with Flying Blue Miles.

As a bluebiz member your company can benefit from our ‘book now, pay later’ (Ticket Time Limit) service and hold the reservation without an immediate need to pay for it. By holding the reservation, you secure the fare and you still have time to reconsider your trip. You can even cancel your ticket at no cost as you only pay for your ticket at the moment of issuance. This benefit is applicable on all flights ticketed and operated by Air France and KLM.

Please note that this benefit is exclusively available for specific booking classes. If it is available for you, then the benefit will be provided free of cost during the booking process.
