FlyingBlue XP Run: 90XPs ex-Germany to BLL/TRF from €499!

These fares are not for most people but it works great for those chasing status with Air France/KLMs Flying Blue program as it gives 90 XPs which is almost enough for Silver status over just one weekend and spending time exploring cities across Europe... Source: My site: PremiumCabinDeals

Ex-AMS best option is train to Dusseldorf, you need a Saturday Night Stay but in some cases you could even have that overnight in AMS so back in bed the same night...

I haven't seen many KL codes on this deal, perhaps AMS-BRU-CDG-XXX but haven't seen those examples yet...

For these sort of prices, you really should be striving for 108 XP

Thanks for the feedback, I'm new to trying to Arbitrage the FB XP concept, I originally heard a "rule of thumb" of 10 € an XP.
So I've been playing on reducing it as much as possible...
Over 2000 mile trips (excluding Africa as Visas can be more complex) I only see AMM, TLV and TBS. CAI/BEY fall just under the mark...
Perhaps Middle East with extra segments, but I will keep on playing towards finding the best value per Euro... BLL is home to Legoland so there is a mini plus to spend the night there....

CDG AMM 2,104 mi
CDG CAI 1,996 mi
CDG TLV 2,043 mi
CDG BEY1,983 mi
CDG TBS 2,097 mi

I would not risk that direct turn around in Tel Aviv (nor in Amman, Cairo, Tunis or whatever). You won't make it probably.

Haha - from DUS to BLL via CDG and AMS?

SkyTeam members are happy to optimize this segment, i think that is stated clearly for most in this topic.
I presume most are aware you can find a quicker connection directly.

Positioning to OSL is expensive, so it kills the deal in case you are based in AMS,BRU or DUS

Well, most users here aren't looking for the non-stop option and 90 XPs at this rate is cheap... It's valid to help build status at an affordable rate.
There are users here that have gone from New York to Dublin via LGA-ORD-MSN-ORD-DUB-ORD-MSN-ORD-LGA back in 2009...

XP Run: Germany to Oslo (TRF) 90 XPs from €499!

Need to accumulate some XPs at a low out of pocket cost while not taking time off from work? Then try this XP Run, where over the cost of a weekend and from €499 you can accumulate up-to 90 XPs which works great for those chasing status with Air France/KLMs Flying Blue program as you accumulate almost enough XPs for Silver status over just one weekend and spending time exploring cities across Europe.

A) Search ITA Matrix
B) Input dates via Multi-City into your favorite online travel agent
C) If that doesn't work, copy and paste the ITA Matrix data into BookWithMatrix.

€500 does not seem like a bargain or newsworthy for such short hops.

It's mainly for people who want to requalify for Flyingblue status.
