More information regarding your flight with KLM

cabins, baggage and inflight service
KLM fly to a large number of both long and short haul destinations. Due to the inclusion in the SkyTeam Alliance American flights are particularly popular, as well as to closer European destinations. KLM flies from a variety of UK airports, including Heathrow, Manchester and Glasgow.

Seats

KLM flights allow a minimum of 31 inches leg room for all passengers, with additional leg room in Economy Comfort Class and Business Class. Seats in all class cabins vary in size and pitch depending on aircraft; you can check the seat dimensions on your flight by visiting the KLM website.

KLM advises that all passengers should be able to ‘effortlessly move the arm rests of their seat on board up and down’. For those passengers who may compromise a section of the adjacent seat(s), it is advised that a second seat is booked in advance; these seats will receive a 25% discount. If an extra seat is booked and upon departure, at least one seat is available in the same travel class on your flight, you can apply for a refund of the costs of the second seat.

Onboard Services

KLM work hard to ensure that all passengers will have a comfortable flight, whether at economy or first class level. Most aircraft have seatback personal screens for entertainment purposes, including the facility to text and email while in the air. Some flights even offer quick lessons in the language of the destination! Also available to all passengers is a copy of the Holland Herald; KLM’s in-flight magazine with news, features and competitions relating to a different theme each month.

Cabins

Business Class

On short haul flights business class is known as Europe Business Class, while on long haul flights the service is known as World Business Class.

World Business Class offers a 60 inch pitch for passengers, with a 176 degree angled lie flat seat. Seat back TV monitors with AVOD (audio video on demand) and email text messaging capabilities are available, as well as a privacy canopy, a massage function and a power socket. Boeing 777-300ER flights also have personal; reading lamps, foot rests and personal telephones. Dining options include a three course meal, pre-departure snacks and drinks and additional small nibbles while flying. World Business Class passengers may also use the exclusive check in desks and airport lounge facilities where available. KLM World Business Class passengers are also presented with KLM Delft Blue Houses; small blue-and-white porcelain reproductions of old Dutch canal houses, filled with jenever as flight mementos. These houses are each numbered according to the year of the flight and can be highly sought after by collectors.

Europe Business Class offers the same lounge access and check in options, as well as a 33 inch seat pitch with additional incline and in seat power sockets. Passengers benefit from on board newspapers, a meal, more personal space and fully flexible booking.

Economy Class

Seats have a 31 inch seat pitch on all aircraft (other than the Airbus A330-200, which has a 32 inch pitch) but there is no in-flight entertainment on short haul flights. Longer flights on Boeing 747 aircraft have private seatback screens. Long haul flight passengers receive a hot meal service, while short haul passengers receive a snack and drink. All drinks (excluding champagne) are free on KLM for all passengers.

Economy Comfort Class is offered on all flights; the additional facilities vary depending on whether the service is inter- or intra-continental. Upgrading to Economy Comfort Class costs between 20 and 70 Euros, and guarantees a greater seat pitch and recline, and quick disembarkation. It does not change luggage allowance or in-flight services a passenger receives. Some Flying Blue members can upgrade to Economy Comfort Class free of charge.
