Summer 2016: More routes heading west

NetworkFeb - 29, 2016
AIR FRANCE KLM MARTINAIR Cargo will launch its summer schedule on 27 March.

Capacity between Paris and North America will increase substantially, with twice-daily B777 service to San Francisco and Washington from June through August. Service to Los Angeles will be increased to 17 weekly flights from June through September. Chicago and Minneapolis will be reintroduced in the summer schedule, with daily 332 and 343 service, respectively. In addition to the four daily flights between Paris Charles de Gaulle and New York JFK, Air France will also launch daily B777 service between Orly and JFK as of June. Service to Montreal and Vancouver in Canada will also be expanded. Service to other continents will also be expanded, with additional capacity to and from Chinese cities such as Beijing and Shanghai, which will both be served twice daily with a B777, and Guangzhou, which will be served daily as of early July.

KLM´s new summer schedule from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol also offers some interesting new opportunities. We plan to launch a new service to Astana in Kazakhstan—four times a week in combination with Almaty—and three times a week to Salt Lake City. From June until the end of the summer season, KLM will operate a direct flight to Kuala Lumpur three times weekly. On our North and South Atlantic routes, we will increase flight frequencies significantly as part of our regular seasonal shift. Furthermore, KLM will increase flight frequency to secondary destinations such as Chengdu, Hangzhou, and Xiamen. Compared to last winter KLM will operate a daily flight to Osaka.

For larger cargo, we maintain ample main-deck capacity, either with our mix of B747 Combis, MD11 Freighters and B747 Freighters out of Amsterdam, or with our B777 Freighter service out of Paris Charles de Gaulle. Until June, our main-deck network extends to no fewer than 40 destinations worldwide, with a total of 90 weekly freighter or combi services.
