Save money on Flying Blue

Flying Blue is the frequent-flyer program of Air France, KLM, Transavia, and the broader SkyTeam airline alliance, covering hundreds of routes across Europe, North America, Africa, Asia, and beyond. For film and television professionals who travel internationally for productions, festivals, co-productions, and location scouting, Flying Blue turns everyday flights into a long-term rewards asset.

As a Saturation cardholder, you earn 1% back on qualifying Flying Blue purchases. That means every time you book Air France or KLM flights to Cannes, Sundance, Berlin, or any remote production location, a portion of that spend comes back to you as value you can reinvest in your next project. Over the course of a production season, those savings add up.

Flying Blue operates on a tiered membership structure: Classic, Silver, Gold, and Platinum. Higher tiers unlock real production travel benefits: priority check-in, additional baggage allowance for equipment, lounge access during layovers, and upgrade priority. For line producers and production coordinators managing frequent crew travel, reaching Silver or Gold can meaningfully reduce the friction of international shoots.

The program runs Promo Rewards each month, offering miles redemptions at reduced rates on select routes. This is particularly useful for productions that need flexibility, since you can often redeem award flights at 25-50% fewer miles than standard rates during promotional periods. Booking crew travel with Promo Rewards available is a straightforward way to stretch the travel budget further.

Flying Blue miles do not expire as long as your account has activity within 24 months, making it a practical program for filmmakers who travel in bursts between productions rather than constantly. You can also pool miles with up to eight family or household members under the Flying Blue Family program, which some smaller production companies use to consolidate travel rewards across their core team.

With Saturation's 1% back perk, every qualifying flight purchase through Flying Blue contributes to rewards you can reinvest. Whether you are flying talent to set, scouting international locations, or attending a festival premiere, Flying Blue and the Saturation Card work together to make production travel work harder for your budget.
