Flying blue private sales coming up

From the TA website:

Boek World Business Class-tickets met korting tot wel EUR 750!
Vanaf dinsdag 9 mei 2017 start er weer een Private Sales actie voor uw Flying Blue-deelnemers.
Tijdens de actie kunt u bij KLM, World Business Class vroegboekvoordeel-tarieven (Z3, Z2, Z1 en ZL3) boeken naar een groot aantal intercontinentale bestemmingen.
Wees er vroeg bij want tijdens de actieperiode boekt u World Business Class tarieven met kortingen die kunnen oplopen tot wel EUR 750 per persoon!

De Private Sales actie biedt u de mogelijkheid om voor uw Flying Blue-deelnemers (Ivory, Silver, Gold en Platinum) tegen zeer aantrekkelijke tarieven, de meest comfortabele en ontspannen reizen in Business Class te boeken.
Medereizigers van Flying Blue-deelnemers profiteren direct mee van de korting, onder de voorwaarde dat zij in de boeking van uw Flying Blue-deelnemer zijn opgenomen.
Zo kan een gezin van vier personen maximaal EUR 3.000 besparen op World Business Class tickets!

"Private Sales by Flying Blue" zijn speciale tarieven op Business Class-tickets van KLM en partners die exclusief gelden voor Flying Blue-deelnemers (Ivory, Silver, Gold en Platinum). De tarieven kunnen door u worden geboekt.

Op zondag 7 mei 2017 worden alle Flying Blue-deelnemers middels een aankondiging per email voor geďnformeerd over de Private Sales actie. Op maandag 8 mei 2017 ontvangt u via het AgentConnect Nieuws meer informatie over deze actie, waaronder het boekingsproces.

Om uw Flying Blue-deelnemers maximaal te laten profiteren van de speciale tarieven op World Business Class stoelen, adviseren wij u om deze actie nauwlettend in de gaten te houden!

How often do these come around? I can't say I recall the last private sale at Flying Blue, although my FB use is very intermittent. I'm in a low activity phase at the moment, having descended all the way from Gold (I just found the Gold benefits were not worth the effort of qualifying, especially when you consider how poor the lounges are).

I think the previous time was Feb 2016, though then the discounts were only for 150€.

..and they are hardly 'private' when they are actively advertising this sale in order to gain more FB members. Its just another sale like many others, and generally the on-sale business class fares are somewhat cheaper than regular fares...but in previous years I don't think it ever had a not-to-be-missed kind of deal. And, always minimum stay and advance purchase restrictions preventing these to be used for work-related trips.

For sure, that kind of biz fares never target work trips. That's absolutely not the objective.

It is 'private' in the sense that unless you are already an FB member, or frequently visit klm.com (or lurk around FT ) then you are unlikely to know about them...

Or if you simply browse the internet, social media, etc. They advertise everywhere.

It would be nice if FB would have a sale specifically to reward its elite members, not available to the general public. That would be a 'private sale'. What is happening now is just yet another attempt to increase the membership numbers.
