Drinks trolley too slow, considering passengers on most European flights are paying for their drinks. Quick drinks trolley with the food trolley coming along behind would be much better, and a lot more happy passengers, One and a half hours,approx., from take-off when the food and drinks trolley, from the front, reached Row 10. Not good Willie!
You should board by seat numbers on European flights. Aisles too narrow on 320's (and equivalent), with passengers putting quite large carry-on luggage in the overhead lockers and slowing everything down plus discomfort to passengers already seated.
Otherwise a very pleasant an enjoyable flight. when the doors closed.
The security person was incorrect about my Lithium battery causing me 45 minutes at the security check.
I was also disappointed that even a coke needed to be paid for extra.
The crew did their best to help several people whose seat requests were not honored including a woman traveling with a dog who was given an aisle instead of a window seat.
Crew came around with water and juice frequently.
Seat assignments were not honored. My husband and I were seated in two different rows even though we requested to sit together in an aisle and window seat and checked in the day before the flight
This happened on all four legs of a trip to South Africa.
Extremely narrow seats and little leg room. Felt like a cattle car.
An aggressive woman with disruptive, screaming children was allowed to Torture passengers for a good five hours of the flight before the bursar finally moved her. This was after several hours of complaints from other passengers. She was eventually moved twice due to passenger complaints. The situation should have been handled after the first complaints which occurred two hours into the flight before the situation completely detiorated
Food was terrible and meals ran out.
I flew with multiple international airlines this summer and KLM was by far the best. The crew of KLM were exceptionally attentive, polite, and helpful. The meals were by far the most enjoyable of my airplane travel meals; and I learned that KLM does not charge for it's drinks on international flights, unlike most other international airlines that I traveled with this summer. In a sentence, flying with KLM was a very pleasant experience and I will recommend this airlines to others.
If I were going to list any negatives, I would say that the little travel pillow that was given to the passengers was so thin that it was practically useless, but I brought my own with me, so I was none the less comfortable.
Liked the peppy, retro outfits. Boarding has no process: first come, first serve- seems to work just fine (versus all the Group numbering other airlines do). Plenty of room for carry-ons and overheads, and they actually try to bag people's bags before they get on the plane that should go underneath the seat in front of them in order to save overhead space.
No complimentary snacks and no on-flight magazine. No TVs or phone wifi for that matter, so bring a book or be ready to snooze!
Very friendly and the food and drinks never stopped and no additional charges, a very nice experience over the bargain airlines, free in-flight movies, and entertainment, no cost.
The Amsterdam airport is super disorganized, with rude employees great at making excuses for their incompetence.
The boarding crew really struggled to organized the boarding and wouldn't really care about people's status. We had to take a bus to the airplane, and even though both plane's entrances were open, they sent everybody to the front entrance.
The comfort of the plane was horrendous, with seats over 20 years old and their business class was the same as the coach, but with no one sitting in the middle (can you get any lower than this?)
The flight attendant woke me up to shove a food tray that I didn't want.
We had to wait over 45 minutes after the plane landing to start seeing some luggage show up on the conveyor bell.
The overall flight experience make southwest look like a luxury airline. This was my first and last time flying on KLM.
nothing was exceptional at all. people were polite enough
almost everything.
-charges for every little thing.
-rules and regulations changed after boarding. so our contract was not really honored in good faith.
-old plane.
I liked that my in flight entertainment system worked and was able to pass the time during an 11+ hour flight
I connected from prague to Frankfurt and Frankfurt to lax. Had a flight from lax to sd. All flights with lufthansa were delayed and I literally had to run to the next connecting flight in a different terminal. I developed knee and ankle issues during my time in europe so this was NOT a pleasant experience at all. I was asked to move seats with some fat guy because he wanted more room even though I picked those seats specifically to be able to stretch out my legs. Was offered 100 euros for in flight shopping, which will buy you nothing! Please move your seat and spend money on our plane, no thank you! Highly would NOT recommend this airline!
The crew were were cheerful, efficient, and helpful.
Special meals were better than average.
Passengers in row ahead reclined seats abruptly, hit our knees painfully, and left seats fully reclined through meal service. A caution from the crew to recline slowly and raise seats during meals would be welcome.
The flight was delayed. i had to wait almost an hour to board. There was no clear explanation why. I was sitting in the back of the plane and it was very shaken and uncomfortable. Passengers next to me were impolite and there was a baby crying almost the entire flight which prevented me from sleeping. The seat space wasn't very big as the passengers next to me kept invading my space, shove their elbows into my arm rests .
