So this what we are getting for the additional 156 € annually on the french AMEX AFKLM card, they give us the the Flying blue extra essential package. A big disappointment... In summary I am only getting half a mile more per 1€ spent on AFKLM because the other benefits are really of no use for a platinum member... exclusive promo rewards is for sure not gonna be that interesting (hoping to be surprised), 10% discount on upgrades before check-in opens, these advance upgrades are rarely available...I don't remember the last time I found availability and usually if I want to fly J I will try booking it since the start.
