I do wonder how much different is this to their partnership with Flying Blue (or is that more of Accor Hotels instead of ALL?)...rather confused now on this partnership compare to the one with Flying Blue.
From what I can see it does seem A3 is partnering with ALL but Flying Blue is partnering with Accor Hotels.

I would like to see more details on the "special privileges" as the one with Flying Blue does have some advantages to earning points towards status.

Cheers!

I really don't see what's confusing: neither A3 nor M+B is or was a partner of FB! If, on the other hand, you are wondering about why Accor initiates a partnership with A3/M+B in addition to having been a partner of FB for a long time, that's a different story that should be asked to the Accor management. I expect that they have a good reason, e.g. getting more customers that fly A3, especially now that they're increasing the number of their Greek hotels. Personally, I wish the partnership had come years earlier since when I was flying across the globe, Accor was my preferred hotel chain and I was Platinum with them until two years ago.

PS What exactly do you mean with "A3 is partnering with ALL but Flying Blue is partnering with Accor Hotels"

Nice partnership I use Accor Hotels and it will be interesting to see what promotions we see going forward.

Has anyone earned "Status points" or "XPs" on Accor or Flying Blue respectively?
I don't, just Rewards points and Flying Blue Miles

romans

yes I received

You could choose either Accor or FB for collecting points/miles when I was staying in one of their hotels (pre-XP times).

Is it just me who thinks Accor's website is truly awful!?

EDIT: Oh I see that it has changed, maybe better!

So as I'm using both FB and M+B I can confirm that there are some differences between them regarding Accor.

With both A3 and FB you can freely convert/transfer your points to miles, and miles to points. That part is the same.

However with FB you will earn twice; meaning that every flight earns regular miles in FB PLUS some Accor points. And every Accor night earns regular points PLUS some FB miles.

For example recently I flew KLM which earned me 4634 miles in FB. At the same time of that flight crediting in FB, the flight credited also 331 Accor points. And a recent Accor night giving 326 Accor points also credited at FB with 131 miles. The amounts of 'extra' miles/points is not huge, but they are free and therefore always welcome. Accor points have a set value of 40 euro per 2K points.

Additionally with FB they are giving out some XP's (Status points in FB) when you join, but that is one-time only and pretty negligible.

It's only you can convert accort points into miles

For moment I was thinking about upgrade benefits....

ALL (Accor Live Limitless...) is the new name for Le Club Accor, ie Accor hotels' loyalty progamme. It has just been launched and expect Flying Blue will also link to Accor hotels through the ALL programme too.

Yes but you need to suscribe to the specifc offer which grants you additional xp after first flight and stay

Does anyone have any experience of the time it takes to credit points from Miles + Bonus to Accor ALL? How long should you wait before chasing?

fifty_two
