I don't think this was posted before (if the case, apologies), but KL has decided to increase the MCT in AMS from 17/06 to 31/07 due to the on-going mess at AMS. The following was posted on AFKL travel agent portal :

To reduce customer concerns about congestion at Schiphol Airport, KLM will optimize its flight schedule. By increasing the Minimum Connecting Time (MCT) for traffic via Amsterdam for flights departing between June 17 and July 31, 2022 inclusive, KLM wants to give connecting customers a bit more time and peace of mind to make their connecting flight.

The MCT increase applies to these connecting flights:
- KL operating and marketing -> KL operating and marketing
- KL operating and marketing -> AF operating and marketing
- KL operating and marketing -> DL operating and marketing

The new MCT will be:
- EUR - EUR will increase from 40 to 60 minutes
- EUR - ICA and ICA - ICA will increase from 50 to 70 minutes.

The new MCT will only apply to new reservations. If an existing ticket is changed, the new MCT will also apply to the booked flights and the ticket will need to be reissued.
