KLM Flying Dutchman - Today is the day...

...to fly the Blue Demons.

Having given up on DL I hardly ever get to fly in the cool blue machines any more. How quickly one gets used to the efficiency of the StarZone....

The contract lounge here at WAW is fine. Nobody's here this morning, 0440 local.

But some things never change. Could the day already have begun with an operational nonupgrade to ES? Will I be seat-booted at AMS from my nice EC assignment on the 74M?

Could the day already have begun with an operational nonupgrade to ES?Not likely, as ES no longer exists.

Just go to show how long ago you last flew KL. :)

:) Ah yes, as I see. Funny thing is, those rows of Euro Biz, whatever it is, don't like very different than before (73G). And there was no seat-shifting which was fine. Window was good for sleeping.

Now the Schengen Lounge, SFB, and next up ORD.

...don't forget the stroopwafels ;)

...to fly the Blue Demons.

Demons? Common, you can like KL or not, but to use the metaphore demons for the usually professional and friendky crew is a bit out of place imho.

I had 10D and 10F pre-assigned on a roundtrip intl. itin. on KLM. as soon as I did the online check-in, in each case my seats changed to middle seats at the back of the plan... row 43 and row 41. No recourse at gate. So much for Sky Priority and SkyTeam Elite Plus!!

Did you assign your seats on DL.dumb? You always need to check your seats with the operating carrier, as DL.dumb/AF.us/KLM.com do not reliably communicate seating requests.
