Amex Share & Fly : how to proceed?
Hello,
How can I transfer miles from my wife's account to my account in order to book and award? She is additional card holder on my FB Amex.
I called FB to be told that must be done online on the FB website but I cannot find the way.
Any clue?
Thanks

I'm not sure if it is the same for the French card, but the Dutch card clearly states that you have to call Flying Blue.
In the past it was possible to do it online, but I can't find this anymore.

Il suffit que le titulaire qui souhaite transférer ses Miles-Prime vers un autre compte Flying Blue appelle le service Clients Flying Blue.
Si toutefois vos deux cartes ne sont pas encore reliées dans les systčmes Flying Blue, il vous faut déclarer au préalable le numéro Flying Blue de votre proche, titulaire de la carte supplémentaire rattachée ŕ votre compte-carte American Express, auprčs de votre Service Clientčle American Express. Sous 1 semaine, vous pourrez alors effectuer votre transfert de Miles auprčs du Service Clients Flying Blue.
Ce service est disponible uniquement en contactant Flying Blue par téléphone.
Cet avantage ne concerne que les titulaires de Carte AIR FRANCE KLM-AMERICAN EXPRESS.

When I try to log in on flyingblue.com it simply redirects me to KLM.
On the KLM website it used to be possible for me to do it online (It was an option in the member-menu). However since the new website layout has gone into effect this option has disappeared. I wouldn't get your hopes up, probably it will require you to call.

When you call Amex, they can connect you to FB directly. Your wife has to be near you, because they will want to speak with her to confirm the transfer; then after less than half an hour you will see your account credited. You are not obliged to book anything. I just did it 15 days ago to my own account from my daughter's account otherwise she would have lost all miles after 20 months with no earning flight.

Interestingly, I already have the S&F option when logged on the KL website (thanks Oxymore for the link) but my wife hasn't (yet).

I called FB two weeks ago for the same problem. The took the online option off to prevent fraud.
The only way to use Share & Fly is to let the person who wants to transfer the miles call the FB desk and ask for it. They do check if the two FB numbers are linked with AMEX.
