Chocolate...
This is not a reference to a recent Kylie Monogue song or a slightly older movie...
However, overheard (or whatever) this is the name of the new joint KL/AF FF... No, not even a code name, the real thing! Has anyone heard something similar or along the same lines or is KLM testing how secure communications are in order to identify potential leaks....
Anyway, new programme to be implemented either early June or early July....

well the KL AF insanity continues !
I could not think of more inappropriate name for the new program if I tried !!
......hang on , it is quite appropriate, when the temprature increases it all falls apart !!!

I think they should call it Rancid Mayonnaise!
Or maybe Flat Pepsi With A Cigarette Butt In It.
But to name it after the bouncer in Moulin Rouge? Oh, wait....French.. Now I understand.

Hmm, I spy a glaring hole in my plan.
Does that make it an Aero/Wispa?

The truth is, it really is a pretty cool name.
I hope they give us plenty of reason to associate good things with it. I booked an award online yesterday with no calls to the helpdesk, the exact routings I wanted, and at the end found out it was a webaward and got a fat discount. If this is chocolate, then I'm all for it.

Well, they say that good chocolate is a substitute for love (or sex).
Judging by the content of some of the posts on this site, not a bad idea at all...
Some TLC from KLM!!

Spoke with KLM employee today who'd also heard of the name Chocolate before in relation to joint AFKL FF.... After a few days the name has kinda grown. Its very original to say the least.
With the new FD KLM changed the old points to miles; maybe earnings will now be changed to 'Droste Flikjes'...
