KLM Royal Dutch Airlines to Fly to 161 Winter Destinations

‍AMSTERDAM — KLM Royal Dutch Airlines (KL) will operate flights to an extensive number of destinations for the upcoming winter season. 

For the period from October 26, 2025, to March 28 next year, KL will offer services to 161 destinations, of which 92 are within Europe and 69 are intercontinental services. This also facilitates almost 25,000 different connections.

Compared to last winter, the total number of available KL seats is expected to increase by 6%. There is indeed a significant increase in capacity to India (+28% compared to winter 2024). The airline will also add more capacity on flights to the Caribbean for the winter. It will offer 17% more seats than last year.

The expansion is possible due to KL receiving additional new aircraft. The carrier expects to welcome its fifteenth Boeing 787-10 this winter. In addition, three new Airbus A321neo aircraft will also be delivered.

New Destinations

KLM is adding services to new destinations. This winter, it will add weekly flights to Kittilä (KTT) in Finland. This is a popular winter destination in Lapland.
