KLM Remaining 747 routes?

I saw in their inflight magazine that they only have 6 of the regular, and 6 of the Combis, left in their fleet. Any idea where they still fly to?

Following destinations for Summer 18 are scheduled;

Note IAH will be operated by b 787 in S 18 also all Chinese destinations are now operated with 777/787

Don't worry you still have about 3 years to enjoy, phase out seems to take till 2021
Sure there are some interesting deals ahead for eg CUR/PBM in C class

JFK. I have seat 4E reserved for me this summer. For a while, this used to be the blocked for Stripper Club 2000, but my travel advisor was able to grab it for me at booking.

All of my flights these days seem to be 777, KUL / CGK / MNL.

Got an open jaw ticket this coming week, into Manila, out of Jakarta so that another long stretch on the 777.

I've been able to grab 4E reliably for at least two years, and I'm definitely not a stripper or Club 2000 so I am not sure what gave you this idea.

Having contacted KLM on Twitter they said the only way you can get 4E is by using the secret password which is The Full Monty. I hope that helps.

When ever I wanted 4E I could never get it, blocked. During a long layover at AMS, I had one of the staff members at the lounge look at a few future bookings I had, and I was told it was reserved for the strippers club 2000. I just hope it sticks, well see if I get mysteriously moved closer to departure.
