KLM Royal Dutch Airlines has announced four new destinations will be added to its summer schedule as it starts to rebuild its route network as travel restrictions and border controls are relaxed. The airline has added Belgrade, Verona, Palma de Mallorca and Dubrovnik to the schedule. In the summer of 2019, KLM flew to 92 destinations, but this summer KLM will be offering 96 destinations.
Compared to the summer of 2019, a number of changes have been made to the network:
* Växjö (Sweden) is temporarily suspended, and the destinations Marseille and Nantes will once again be operated by Air France from Schiphol.
* Southampton, Poznan and Cork were added to the network earlier in 2021. In the 2021 summer schedule, KLM will be flying to four new European destinations, of which three are in the peak of the summer season:
Belgrade - from 13 May, up to 7 times a weekVerona - from 26 June, up to 7 times a weekPalma de Mallorca – from 26 June, up to 7 times a weekDubrovnik – from 26 June, up to 7 times a week
Extra capacity to popular destinations
KLM will add flights or deploy larger aircraft to popular destinations like Porto and Ibiza in the months of July and August. Compared to previous years, KLM will deploy relatively more capacity to southern European destinations in Portugal, Spain, Italy, Croatia and Greece. The expected capacity on the European flights will be 50% to 75%. However, this could still change. Colour codes that apply to the destinations could change, as could the frequency of flights.
Flying safely and hygienically with KLM
This year, KLM has set the highest possible standard to ensure optimal health and hygiene for passengers, before, during and after their journey. For those efforts, KLM recently received the Diamond APEX certification, which means that KLM is one of the leading airlines in the field of hygiene and health safety. Moreover, KLM offers maximum flexibility when booking, changing or cancelling your trip. KLM will of course follow all travel restrictions set by the government.
KLM President & CEO Pieter Elbers said "We are extremely pleased that there are more possibilities to travel again. In this respect, we respond as flexibly as possible to market conditions. At KLM, we are prepared to carry our passengers to their destinations in a completely responsible manner. We offer our customers a flexible travel policy and the highest standard of hygiene."
