KLM flight 809 daily 777 replacing 747

Recommended Posts

You guys can wait a little longer for KLM 777s according to dutch airnews.

3th KLM 77W is not expected before summer 2009 instead of February!! This will probably mean the 747s remain flying into KUL a little longer :pardon:

 

I am wondering will it be a mix of 772ER + 744 instead in this case...

it has always been planned as a mix of 77W and 772ER operation right? since it was announced 3/4 months ago..

 

Correct...but Cornelis was referring to a longer operation with 744's, which I cannot confirm at present as system still shows Tripple Seven :pardon:

still this is according to amadeus so i guess this is the same info of what we have now.. but perhaps these are the changes to KL's 77W op to accommodate the delay delivery but also meaning KUL is not affected.. :clapping:

 

at least i know i wont be stuck again in seat 45A in a full 74E next to a fat man again.. lol.. at least a newer aircraft and i m looking forward to my staff travel ah well not for long.. might just be coming home for job interviews..

I received a newsletter from KLM today and I thought I want to share this.

This year will be a special year for KLM Indonesia. On 1 October, 1924, 85 years ago, KLM initiated its first intercontinental flight from Amsterdam to Jakarta. And, on 12 September, 1929, KLM started a regular fortnightly service from Amsterdam to Jakarta. At that time the journey took 12 days, a total of 89 flying hours.

 

In celebration of KLM's 85 years in Indonesia we are pleased to announce that from 30 March, 2009 KLM will be operating a Boeing 777 aircraft daily between Jakarta and Amsterdam. (With a stop in Kuala Lumpur).

 

Our Boeing 777’s are equipped with personal video screens in every economy class seat and an interactive entertainment system complete with video games and individual telephones. You can even send text messages to any mobile phone or e-mail address anywhere in the world – and receive replies right at your seat!
