KLM has resumed direct service between Amsterdam
and Dallas/Fort Worth but will only operate the route during the
summer season, up to and including Saturday, 27 October 2012.
“KLM is delighted that it can once again offer its
customers direct flights to and from this important business and
leisure destination this summer,” said KLM President & CEO KLM
Peter Hartman. “With the resumption of service to Dallas/Fort
Worth, KLM and Delta now operate twenty direct services between
Amsterdam and North American cities.”
The
Amsterdam-Dallas/Fort Worth service will be operated five times a
week, using an Airbus A330-200.
Flight KL669 departs from
Amsterdam at 10:30 CET and arrives in Dallas/Fort Worth at
13:50 LT. The return flight, KL670, leaves Dallas/Fort Worth
15:45 LT and arrives in Amsterdam at 08:00 the next day.
KLM first began operating scheduled service to Dallas/Fort
Worth in March 2008. During the past winter, KLM and its Transatlantic Joint Venture partner Delta Air Lines decided that
this route would only be served in summer. The key reasons being
fluctuating seasonal demand and industry-wide overcapacity in the
transatlantic market.
Flying Blue members who book
travel to Dallas/Fort Worth in May and June will earn double FB
miles.
