"two restrooms for 5 hour flight"
Linda Hau (United States)
✅ Trip Verified | Tel Aviv to San Francisco via Amsterdam. The flight from Tel Aviv to Amsterdam was aircraft Boeing 737. It was a fully packed plane with only two restrooms for 5 hour flight. The aircraft had no entertainment and the two restrooms were not sufficient for the entire economy class section. There were lines constantly for the use of the facility. I don't know why KLM would use such an aircraft for 5 hour trip. On the other hand, the flight from Amsterdam to SFO in Boeing 767 was a totally different experience. The aircraft was much larger and it didn't fill to the capacity so it was much more pleasant flight with less aggravated passengers. Each seat had its individual screen for the entertainment.

"cabin crew were wonderful"
4 reviews W Graham (Netherlands)
✅ Trip Verified | It was my first time flying with KLM on a non-European flight, the boarding was easy, it's Schipol. The seat was comfortable, the cabin crew were wonderful, the in-flight entertainment was good, could be a little broader but cannot complain. The food though was rubbish, they ran out of beef when they got to me but that isn't the problem it's more the quality of food, they do come round with drinks a lot which is great. Really smooth flight. I've been on an American airline and they're terrible, so it's an overall thumbs up for KLM long haul flights.

"Overall really impressed"
13 reviews Mark Shah-Hall (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | Manchester to Lima return via Amsterdam, for the first time in KLM's new world business class.The day we flew there was a power outage at Schiphol airport. Fortunately none of our flights were cancelled, though our connecting flight from Manchester was delayed and gave only us 20 mins in Amsterdam to catch our Lima flight. Staff were extremely good in up-dating the information and honest, saying if we were late the next flight would not wait. Our long-haul experience was fantastic, no delays or luggage issues, the FA's were really friendly and engaging; it was obvious that they took pride in their jobs. The seats are really comfortable and lie flat - on return flight slept for 6 hours. The IFE was current, good resolution and although the screen was fixed never felt I wanted to adjust the screen. Catering was of a high standard and tasty (though not as great variety of choice as offered by middle eastern airlines) and was never left lacking. One the subject of catering, the photos of short-haul sector catering - the chicken salad with accompaniment is what KLM presented on AMS to MAN compared with our BA Club Europe meagre offering of an unappetising chicken sandwich (GOT to MAN in Feb 2018). Overall really impressed and would not hesitate flying KLM business class long-haul again.

"is the cheapest ticket"
4 reviews Drake Dexter Mangalino (United Arab Emirates)
✅ Trip Verified | Bahrain to Kuwait on an A330 in December 2017. On this 1 hr flight, they served juices and waffle. The plane looks old and the crew looked tired which resonates as a gloomy trip. This is the cheapest ticket compare to the legacy and budget airlines flying between this route. Seat pitch is ok. Upon landing, we were stranded in the taxi way due to some other delayed airline blocking our designated gate. Since we were not moving, the air became really hard to breathe in as it smelled like the exhaust from the engine. A female passenger went ill and her children got out of their seats to seek assistance but a crew sitting behind a few rows shouted at them to sit since the plane is still taxiing. Unfortunately, none of the crew who were assisting can speak Arabic. How can an airline send their plane to an Arab country with arabic speaking travelers with cabin crew who do not speak the language?!

"a pleasure to fly KLM"
7 reviews S Ballera (Norway)
✅ Trip Verified | Oslo to Amsterdam. I would like to thank KLM for the excellent service offered. Boarding was on time and fast. Nice and very clean Boeing 737 aircraft. The Captain gave a warm welcome message in perfect English. The cabin crew did a professional job and were perfectly groomed and polite. It is a pleasure to fly KLM.

"Service during the flight was good"
H Meakor (Netherlands)
✅ Trip Verified | Excellent flight with KLM. I flew from Amsterdam to Mauritius. Besides the little delay (20min) due to a catering problem, we were able to arrive before schedule in Mauritius. Both the cabin and cockpit crew gave us an excellent heads up on the situation. Service during the flight was good, friendly cabin crew who often walked through the cabin with a tray filled with glasses of water and juices during the night. WIFI System in the B787-9 works well, pricing is a bit expensive but the speed was good enough for checking out social media, emails and messages.

"refused to refund my upgrade"
T Maweho (Uganda)
✅ Trip Verified | Birmingham to Entebbe via Amsterdam. Worst service on check in, and after-sales I have ever received from any airline. I took an upgrade to Business class, advertised on the website as allowing cabin baggage of 18kg, and check in of 32kg per bag for 2 pieces. My bags were 27kg each, but they declined to take them. Also they declined to reverse the upgrade. I dropped off valuable excess luggage to fit in 23kg allowance for economy class and travelled economy, but after sales service still refused to refund my upgrade. On the flight, I received no business class service as cabin crew told me it was not pre-booked for me. Very disappointed, I will never use or recommend their airline to anyone again.

"my second flight canceled"
L Davish (United States)
✅ Trip Verified | I had an international flight from Tehran to Los Angeles via Amsterdam, but my second flight canceled. They sent us to Boston for 11 hours stop there and then on United Airlines to LA. I had to carry all my luggage in airport there was no connection flight to carry my luggage. It was awful hospitality during the flight to Los Angeles because we have to send with better flight because our flight was international. Long, and so low class flight with poor condition in airplane. No working the tv front of the chair and so old. I asked for another blanket, they didn’t have extra.

"my bag was broken and damaged"
S Shoker (France)
✅ Trip Verified | Muscat to Luxembourg via Amsterdam. My bag was delayed, they promised me at the airport to deliver it to my residence. Unfortunately, my bag was held at the custom, and only after two weeks of nagging they finally clarified that they can't deliver it and I need to take it personally from Luxembourg custom. Since I live in France, (in Pau, very far away from Luxembourg), I had to travel back to get it. The transportation is already expensive and if the delay didn't happen I would have avoided this problem. So I talked to the costumer service to refund me the transportation and until Now I get rejection. When I got my bag, it was completely broken and damaged but they told me that I could not send a reclamation because I did mot get my bag only after 3 weeks of my flight.

"a very relaxing mood"
Tatiana Albou (Netherlands)
✅ Trip Verified | Amsterdam to Birmingham. Since I'm not feeling very comfortable flying I am always searching for more information on internet on how to feel better etc. and I read an article that if you tell the flight attendant when you arrive in the aircraft that you are not feeling confident to fly then they can give you a bit more attention and believe me, it feels much better. I do that each time now but this time was very different as the flight attendant actually directed me to the pilots before take off so that I could ask questions and talk to both (pilot and co-pilot). They asked me at which moment of flying is uncomfortable for me and they gave me some explanations and answered to my questions for 5 minutes. I had no issue after that flying in the aircraft anymore that day. I was really relax and could attend my business meeting on a very relaxing mood too. I felt home! That's why I am choosing for KLM.
