For KLM-marketed flights that have Tour Operator fares, you earn Miles based on the distance (1), the booking class earning percentage and the Elite bonus earning percentage, if applicable and as per the earning scheme in the link below.(2)

See KLM’s partner page:
On tour operator fares they do not show the ticket amount as that would reveal how much the TO paid KLM.

I have asked the question in the Accor forum, but I think it’s important to post here as well :
My last AF flights a week ago, while credited quickly to FB, have not posted to ALL. Is that just me ?

My last AF flights from August 28th (KL operated if that makes a difference) posted correctly on ALL two days later.

in fact, I think I know why and I totally forgot about this rule in the T&C of the offer : the flight has to be both marketed and operated by AF or KL. Code-shares are therefore excluded (outside of course AFKL mutual code-shares).

Today after a EU flight, I got credited 1000miles as a bonus "thanks for subscription miles+points".
I think I did it 3 years ago when it started...
Hopefully I would get a bonus xp as well 😂
They definitely are making tests and such for an increase of xp threshold for the higher status.

I'm also at a loss as to why this posted now; and although it's been ages since I subscribed I don't recall any mention of any such bonus subscription offer.

Room upgrades at certain Accor hotel brands with FB Status?
Every time I stay at a medium/premium Accor brand hotel, I always seem to get upgraded to an executive level room. I usually would make the booking on KLM/AF's booking.com page and select a regular room. When I get to the hotel, at the check-in the person says "Thank you for staying with us, you're room is on the executive level" or something and in the room, I see a few drinks, some type of snack, bathrobe and slippers. Definitely not complaining and it's an amazing perk, but has this happened to any of you? This started when I first got FB Silver back in April when I first stayed at BHX's Novotel and has continued since. I also didn't have an Accor account until I created one yesterday after realizing that I could've gotten Accor Silver based on my travels so far this year.

Converting gets even more rewarding
Received this email today.
The conversion rate of ALL Reward points to FB Miles is now 1 to 1.

2000 miles of redemption in ALL = 40 EUR.
cosidering that a cheap transatlantic ticket in business is ~100K miles, you're forfeiting ~2000 euros in free lodging. Or ~4000 for a more typical transat ticket in FB (+tax of course)
Still not a great deal, though it at least can be worth it if you are ALL points rich and don't have a need for free nights. Unlike before when it was just useless.

Hi, been lurking for a while and searched various threads to find an answer, but what I've found is unclear or contradictory:
Can "MIles+Points" be used together with "Hotels for Miles" and get full benefits of both?
I'm fairly new to both Flying Blue and Accor - I'm flying KLM in January and have a stay booked at an Accor property. These will be my first flight and stay since I linked my FB and ALL accounts, so I'm expecting the 2x 5XP and the double-dipping on points.
The hotel was booked refundable for cash directly through Accor website, before I was aware of "Hotels for Miles". So I'm wondering now if it's worth cancelling and rebooking to get the additional FB miles through Hotels for Miles (again for cash), or if it will jeopardize the Miles+Points, esp. the XP.
Would appreciate any concrete DPs either way!
