I've not actually travelled KLM myself, but a lot of colleagues and friends have told me to steer well clear. Many tales of delayed planes, lost luggage, rubbish customer service etc... Even if KLM were the cheapest by a country mile, I still wouldn't use their service. (Sorry, I know this is no consolation to you...) (You could always play on the magic roundabout at Schipol...! Stick 5 euros on number 8 please...!) Title: Re: KLM Airlines - What a load of Bo**ocks !

I will be the big guy in the VIP lounge getting a much needed foot massage....

Post by: ifm on March 06, 2006, 02:41:16 PM I was delayed 8 hours, stranded at Amsterdam when i came back from America last year, the most frustrating part was i had a pal living 5 minutes from the airport but i hadn't taken my phone so couldn't call him!!
Title: Re: KLM Airlines - What a load of Bo**ocks ! Post by: londonpokergirl on March 06, 2006, 03:19:37 PM Yeah I went with KLM to vegas and no way would I ever get on another of their flights
seats too close together and i've long legs, got a huge bruise on me knee where the git in front slammed his seat down onto my knee and they had a pull down 1960's screen at the front of the plane, except i was at the back couldn't see anything Quite glad I didn't pay for it :) Title: Re: KLM Airlines - What a load of Bo**ocks !

Title: Re: KLM Airlines - What a load of Bo**ocks ! Post by: Sheriff Fatman on March 06, 2006, 04:54:34 PM I had a flight from Istanbul to Leeds/Bradford via Schipol a few years ago. The flight to Amsterdam was delayed by high winds so I missed the connecting flight to Leeds.
Conversation with the customer desk went as follows: Me: I missed my connection because of high winds. KLM: Yes, we're sorry about that. Me: Are there any more flights to Leeds tonight? KLM: No Me: So does that mean I'll get put up in a hotel? KLM: No, we only do that when the delay is our fault! Me: So I have the option of sitting here all night then or paying for a hotel myself? KLM: Yes sir. In the end I got a flight to Manchester, caught the car hire desk 5 minutes before it closed and drove to Leeds/Bradford to pick up my car. Needless to say my luggage didn't make it on the same flight as me. Funnily enough, I've never flown with them again. Worst.........airline..........ever! Sheriff |
