KLM Completes Transition to Premium Comfort Class on All Boeing 777 and 787 Aircraft
In two years, KLM has completed the modification of its Boeing 777 and 787 aircraft to the new Premium Comfort Class. This class offers more space and luxury than Economy Class, but at a more affordable price than World Business Class.
KLM has completed the largest product change in years. In two years, all Boeing 777 and 787 aircraft have been equipped with the new Premium Comfort Class. In a press release, KLM announced that it takes four to sixteen days per aircraft to install the new class.
Over the past two years, colleagues have worked very hard to make the addition of this new class possible. Passengers now have an extra option when booking a ticket, in addition to World Business Class and Economy Class.
