No more tracking multiple expiration dates. No more unexpected Miles expiring. Just one simple and transparent rule that puts you in control.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>This new rule will also apply to miles earned before May 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So at long last, we no longer have to worry about Flying Blue miles expiring. If I remember correctly, Lufthansa is the only one standing which has very harsh expiry rules.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last month I wrote a guide on Flying Blue miles, where I had a bit of a rant about their dual-track mileage expiry policy: only miles&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-26799","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-air-france-klm"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26799","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26799"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26799\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":26802,"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26799\/revisions\/26802"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26799"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26799"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26799"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
