KLM-Royal Dutch Airlines
KLM-Royal Dutch Airlines is the Netherlands’ national carrier, with its home offices in Amstelveen and its main hub at Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport. Serving over 90 destinations, KLM offers both international and domestic flights. It is a member of the SkyTeam Alliance, the world’s second largest airline alliance.
For the past several years, KLM-Royal Dutch Airlines has been part of Air France-KLM, while it has also maintained an operating partnership with Northwest Airlines, based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in the USA. The two-airline consortium operates a fleet of 607 aircraft that carry nearly 75 million passengers a year to 258 destinations. The Air France-KLM partnership recently obtained even more global reach by purchasing a 25 per cent stake in the Italian carrier Alitalia.
Founded in 1919 and the world’s oldest air carrier, KLM ran its first flight, from London to Amsterdam, in May 1920. During World War II it ceased operations. The company was accused of helping accused Nazi war criminals escape Germany after World War II, but it has denied the allegations.
Air France and KLM announced their plans to merge in 2003, marking the end of the oldest independent airline in the world. However, the merger did not impact KLM’s long time partnership with United States based Northwest Airlines, as both companies joined the SkyTeam alliance in September 2004.
KLM gifts its long-haul first-class and business passengers with small Delftware, blue-and-white porcelain reproductions of old Dutch canal houses. The houses are filled with Dutch liquor. This practice started in 1952. There are now 88 Delftware houses as of 2008 (the airline’s age that year). A new Delftware house is added each year on October 7, the anniversary of the airline’s founding.
The KLM mileage program is called Flying Blue. Members can earn and use mileage points on flights run by Air France-KLM and other SkyTeam carriers, but also a variety of other travel, transportation, and financial companies. Flying Blue members can attain four membership levels—Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Ivory. Levels are determined by accumulated miles on Air France-KLM or any other SkyTeam company, and also on flights operated by Kenya Airways, which is a partner of Flying Blue.
KLM’s venerable history hasn’t protected the company for current economic turbulence. Air France-KLM recently announced it will lay off up to 2,000 employees on account of lower ticket sales and fewer cargo shipments. These cuts represent about 1 in 30 Air France-KLM workers. The company also plans to reduce its airline capacity by about 2 per cent in the summer of 2009, to make up for the $653 million loss in the fourth quarter of 2008. Airline management says it has not ruled out future job cuts or flight reductions as they seek to stabilize their finances and return the company to profitability.
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, an airline watchdog group, announced in February 2009 that the group is suing KLM over allegations of price fixing. KLM denies the charges and plans to contest the lawsuit. Qantas and British Airways were recently fined $20 million and $5 million for similar allegations of price fixing.
