It is only up to March. My spend from 13-31 March is 8400 euro, times 1.5 AMEX gold, I get exactly 65XP. I don’t get XP for my April spend. This is just one time credit for all the missing XP in March which were not converted yet.

When was the last time you purchased ticket from AF-KLM with your AMEX AF-KLM Card?
I got the same XP bonus for a ticket purchased from airfrance.fr with my AMEX AF-KLM Platinium late march. I got the mileage (20 mile/ 10 € spent) une month after . I think this XP bonus could be the last we have been given for the conversion of those miles which were Status Miles with Amex AF-KLM card in the former Flying Blue Programme

We will see in the future if any ticket purchased with AMEX AF-KLM card in AF-KLM offices and websites would generate such XP bonuses. Unfortunately I believe it will not be the case.

Cheers

Damn, you got lucky. I purchased KLM tickets on the 23rd of March and the level miles I got there was just processed into the level miles earned per April 1st.

I had the same in my transactions summary but it eventually only added 5 XP to my account.
I still don't know where it came from...

Yes, 💯 % sure. It is from my FB Amex card spend in mid to end March, which were not credited yet. Good guesture of FB and justified too as they said nothing will change before 31 March.

On my side only one payment (400€) in March before my monthly billing. It might be this as it should have added 800 status miles to my FB account. 403€ spent = 806 status miles = 4,03XP
They were generous indeed.
But the 4 additional lines really seem to be a big though

My miles were credited on time in May. So no problems at my end.

who can explain ?

Am I the only one who has problems understanding this (apart from the formatting errors in the statement).
Platinum is 1.5 mile/EUR ??? What are bonus miles ?
