KLM

KLM Royal Dutch Airlines is the flag carrier airline of the Netherlands. KLM is headquartered in Amstelveen, with its hub near Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. KLM was established on 7 October 1919, making it the world’s oldest airline still operating under its original name. 

The slogans for KLM Royal Dutch Airlines:
_ The Reliable Airline,
_ The Flying Dutchman,
_ KLM, A Journey of Inspiration.

The KLM logo is everywhere. The iconic stylized crown in the KLM logo is made up of four circles, a line, and a plus. It adds a regal glamour to the emblem by “crowning” the company’s initials. The light blue colour in the KLM logo symbolizes excellence, integrity, and the courage to perform in all situations and adverse conditions.

Carrying 34.1 million passengers and 621,000 tonnes of cargo, KLM and KLM Cityhopper form the heart of the KLM Group. Via a vast network of 92 European cities and 70 intercontinental destinations, KLM offers direct services to key economic centres all over the world. KLM is a partner in the SkyTeam Alliance, which offers passengers even more possibilities, jointly serving 1,063 destinations in 173 countries. The KLM Group also includes the wholly-owned subsidiaries Transavia and Martinair. Transavia is the leading low-cost airline in the Netherlands, operating out of Amsterdam, Eindhoven and Rotterdam.

Following the merger with Air France in 2004, KLM has pursued the concept of 1 Air France-KLM Group, 2 airlines, and 3 core activities (passengers, cargo and engineering & maintenance). KLM and Air France play a pioneering role in the European air transport industry. KLM pursues profitable growth to achieve its commercial objectives as well as more general economic and social goals. KLM is actively driving sustainable growth at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol and seeks to gain access to any market that will improve the quality of its network. In addition, KLM endeavours to ensure a level playing field for all participants in the sector.

Operating out of its home base in Amsterdam, the KLM Group served its global network with a fleet of 108 aircraft in 2024.

KLM offers three travel classes: Economy Class, Premium Comfort Class and Business Class.
 

• Economy Class: sit and enjoy the snacks and drinks included in your ticket. Recharge your phone, connect to WiFi, or watch a movie; the cabin crew will take care of the rest!
   
• Premium Comfort Class: a little more choice, convenience, and comfort. Travel with Premium Comfort Class and enjoy more space in a separate cabin on intercontinental flights. You'll benefit from a wide choice of top-notch meals and drinks: you can choose from 3 delicious meals, of which 2 are served hot. A salad and bread and butter will accompany your main course. Combine your favourite dish with selected wines and liqueurs.
   
• Business Class: You barely have to spend any time waiting in a queue. With SkyPriority, you can board as one of the first. You’ll have more privacy, comfort, high-quality food and drinks, and full attention from the cabin crew. 
  
  Before you disembark the aircraft, you get an iconic Delft Blue miniature house filled with Dutch gin.
  
  On flights within Europe, middle seats are blocked. You always have a window or aisle seat with extra legroom and more privacy. KLM serves a fresh sandwich or sweet pastry with a drink in a handy bag. On most flights within Europe, you'll be served a deluxe meal box. For breakfast, this contains yoghurt with granola, fruit and a sweet or savoury breakfast dish. For the rest of the day, the meal box consists of an appetiser, cold meal salad and dessert. On longer European flights, you will be served a hot sandwich and a fruit juice or hot snack in addition to the meal box. Your meal is always completed with drinks, followed by coffee or tea when you’ve finished eating. 
  
  On intercontinental flights, once everyone’s settled in, the crew welcome you on board with a glass of champagne or jus d’orange. You spend your trip dreaming in your full-flat seat. You'll have all the space you need.
  You'll enjoy a dinner created by Dutch top chefs and prepared with fresh ingredients. Choose a cold starter or vegetarian soup and choose one of the main dishes, accompanied by a glass of wine. Next, choose your favourite dessert: a sweet dessert or a selection of cheeses, which will be served together with a glass of port or dessert wine. Rather have a hot drink? After your meal, the crew serves coffee and tea.
  
  On flights with an early morning arrival time, the company serves breakfast. You get to choose a sweet or savoury breakfast, together with yoghurt, granola, various types of bread, and fruit.
