Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted April 13, 2008 Guys & Gals, Stumbled upon this 'blog' Although, it's in Dutch language, may I, especially, recommend you all to check the posted pictures and 'admire' the rich history of KLM - Royal Dutch Airlines ? Let me know what you think, my friends Link: http://klmhistorie.forum2go.nl/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zaki 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2008 Dank je wel, Pieter! I sure did learn a bit of dutch! For a young person like me, it is always interesting to see and learn about what was flying like in the old days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken M. 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2008 Pieter, Like the last KLM DC-10 flight story. Wee aside - recently returned to Glasgow from a trip to Paris. 3 very good flights with KLC/KLM and bad flight with Air France. AF Airbus went "tech" requiring a change of plane then a passenger lost it mentally at the gate, causing 2 incidents and a further delay. Missed my connection at Schiphol and had a 6 hour wait for last flight back to Glasgow that day. Have flown Air France 5 times over the years and never had an acceptable experience. KLM Transfer Desk handled the issue well and flight home was good with a happy crew. KLM are in a different league compared to Air France. Ken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
