It's now posting very quickly : it is credited in the partner program within one or 2 days after the stay or flight has been posted in the original program.

Linked my (new) Accor account in August and just last weekend posted the 'first flight +5XP' on my FB account. Had several business trips and reward bookings since the linking but apparently those do not work?
Furthermore I booked a stay in an Accor hotel for the extra XP, unfortunately I missed the part that third-party websites (trip.com, booking.com, expedia.com, etc) do NOT result in eligeble stays...

Yes, I was aware of that! I was just surprised that that first flight bonus did not post to an earlier flight (where I did receive the normal XPs of that flight and it indicated on the KLM app that I would receive them).

I linked Accor and FB just a few days ago, and my yesterday GVA-AMS flight gave me the 5 XP extra on a ticked bought over 2 months ago. In essence my first flight after the link.

Was GVA-AMS the inbound flight of a return booking? There have been some people who reported that the +5XP was only added on completing a return instead of after a single (outbound) flight.

Yes, it was the return leg finalising all legs of the ticket. Could indeed be that the full ticket has to be flown before you get the 5XP. Now I have to wait for the return favor - in November a hotel with an Accor brand, curious how quick that goes.

It’s working out quite well, this tie up. Every time I take an AF KL flight the small number of Accor points earned helps keep my account alive over at Le Club Accorhotels.
