KLM Royal Dutch Airlines: An Introduction
KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, also known as KLM, is the leading airline in the Netherlands. KLM is a part of the Air France-KLM Group and a member of the SkyTeam airline alliance. Established in 1919, KLM — the oldest airline in the world — has retained its original name to this day. Currently, the airline offers economy and business class flights to 145 destinations around the world.
KLM Seat Class
Economy Class
The Economy Class of KLM is equipped with ergonomic seats to ensure passengers’ comfort. For passengers flying on a long-distance flight, the airline provides pillows and blankets for extra comfort. Passengers may also choose from a range facilities to keep them entertained onboard, from shopping to movies, music, TV series and international newspapers. Holland Herald, the airline’s inflight magazine, is also available onboard.
In-flight Meal
Passengers can also expect to find a variety of food and beverages — alcoholic or non-alcoholic — in Economy Class. Snacks and fresh sandwiches are served on continental flights, while full-course menus are served on intercontinental flights. Passengers flying on intercontinental flights may also request special menus that are in accordance with their dietary restrictions.
Business Class
Business Class passengers are provided with wider seats, bigger baggage allowance and access to the KLM Crown Lounges or its partners. The 190 cm seats can be reclined to 175 degrees, allowing passengers to rest comfortably. A power set as well as a Taminiau comfort kit are provided in each seat for the passengers’ convenience, while an entertainment set, magazines and newspapers keep the passengers accompanied during flight. Business Class passengers will also be rewarded with 175% of Flying Blue miles when flying internationally, and 250% when flying around Europe.
In-flight Meal
Business Class passengers are served with more food variety, from sandwiches, salads, snacks and tapas to a sumptuous three-course meal complete with a glass of fine wine or the passenger’s beverage of choice. The airline collaborates with some of the Netherland’s top chefs in creating the menus, and chooses Amsterdam’s leading product and interior design studio Marcel Wanders for cutlery.
