I was on flight DL9231 on July 13th from Amsterdam to Barcelona. Using the Wi-Fi service I was able to stream the news on my phone. Unfortunately, I forgot my AirPods and had the volume on my phone where I could hear it.

I asked both persons sitting next to me if the noise was loud and they both said it was fine. The flight attendant approached me and asked me to turn it down (which I did). What bothered me was the loud noise four gentleman were making and no one had asked them to keep it down.

They kept on making the noise during the entire flight. The flight manager asked me to move my seat if I am bothered by the noise and asked that I turn off the volume completely at this point- claiming that it is not allowed on flights.

The name on her tag said Purser but she told her name was…

Was at Amsterdam airport when the workers went on strike. Ten hours in security lines before missing my flight. I was given a voucher by a KLM employee offering to reimburse hotel costs as well as travel and dining. KLM has refused to reimburse me, even with a scan of the KLM provided voucher.

It's been eight months and I've gotten three replies, the customer service is incredibly slow, and they simply close the case after they deny you.

August 19, 2022, 4:52 PM, I called the KLM line to cancel a ticket and asked for a refund, but the agent said I was not eligible for a refund and asked if I could have a voucher instead, as she made it seem that I simply would be losing my money.

She was constantly talking to someone every time I asked a question, so I asked if I could talk to a supervisor, and she said no. I asked her for the employee number she said they are not allowed to give me the employee number, but her name is Oksana or Asana.

After she agreed to give me the voucher after 20min on the phone, she said id receive an email in 2 days. After a week, there was no voucher regarding booking UAUJGN, so I called again. After a long wait, the new representative Jeanice, Employee# 7908said there were no notes about my…

Our flight was canceled and we were auto booked on KLM. After communicating our situation to the agent at service counter, we were subjected to a series of offenses and non-compliant behaviors by the agent, which I have outlined below.

1. Inability and reluctancy to provide pertinent information to us regarding our travel reservation: When I requested our new itinerary, she stated “the counter is closing I will not do that.” I informed her that the agent at gate E69 directed us to this counter for help. She continued to say that there are no more flights and that she did not need to be there. After continuously expressing that we were auto booked and don’t even know our flight numbers, she reluctantly printed our itinerary. Furthermore, we communicated that we did not know the travel…

Booking number: PAFN8Q; from OTP to PDX My mom was stopped at checking and told she won't be able to reach the US due to Covid restrictions. She was advised to find a route through Turkey and not Amsterdam. I called KLM but was unable to find her another flight that day.

We decided to cancel the flight and paid $250 for that. I was told I'd get a voucher so that I could use it for another ticket for when the borders would open. A few weeks later, I tried to use the voucher and called KLM again.

They told us for some reason we cannot apply the voucher to the new plane ticket so I was told to buy a new plane ticket and I'd get a cash refund. I called again to get my cash refund and KLM is refusing to honor its promise.

Somebody has entered my mom as a 'no show', which makes the ticket…

We have had problems with the reschedule of our flight because no one was answering our phone calls so we have to book a new flight and the website says that you can change your flying date due to Covid-19 but we didn’t manage to do that. The website says we can change the flying dates due to COVID-19 related reasons but we can’t modify our flight trough your website. What can we do?

I have recently booked a flight with KLM , JSYJ26. I am 7I yrs. old and wish to visit a grandson I have not been able to visit him due to Covid. I was very happy with the flight, service and information received on booking the flight until I was informed of the EXTREMELY recent increase of cost in travelling with a dog.

100E one way to Norway, 400E to Canada. I have travelled with my dog many times over the past years and I agree one should have to incur a cost for a special service but this increase is not reasonable for customers like me who have had the opportunity to travel with my dog at a fair cost.

I have SO appreciated that KLM would make this travel option available to elderly persons like me. Now I am afraid that I will NOT be able to continue future travel plans when the cost…

I booked a flight for myself and my wife Brenda from Amsterdam to Norwich on 12th May, for KLM flight 1523 Booking code SHQOEI on 17th March 2020.

I Did not realise when I booked that 20 kg luggage was included in the price and booked extra luggage that I never needed. Our flight was the continuation of our journey from New York on Norwegian airlines.

I realised my mistake on 15th May when my daughter checked our tickets and sought a refund. However I was told this was not possible as 24 hours had passed. I have to say we are two old age pensioners who just about found enough money for our trip of a life time and do not find internet booking easy. If we had changed our minds I could understand if you stuck to your terms and conditions, but I just made a mistake.

I ask you please to…

We were scheduled on KLM as part of three part flight from Dallas to Moscow July 28 returning St. Petersburg to Dallas on August 10.

First two legs were Delta, then KLM as partner. Outgoing KLM, Amsterdam to Moscow, I was not on flight. When the supervisor who was called to the gate took my boarding pass she said, "Oh this is rubbish! This is Delta.

" We were told to stand aside that they must call Delta and didn't know if they would reach them to allow us to board or not. They called Delta and were put on hold. There was a lot of sighing and arm waving to just wait, they didn't know what would happen.

All this while the flight boarded. At the last minute, they talked to Delta, gave me a new boarding pass and we boarded leaving my luggage in Amsterdam to be delivered late afternoon the…

Booking code KKWDI Toronto to Inverness, U.K. and return This is my first experience flying with KLM. I fly to Europe 1-2 times per year. I was looking forward to my KLM experience. Let me outline what I did experience

First of all, I paid an economy comfort seat, and did NOT get it. I assume KLM used a different plane so the pre-assigned seat was not in that area. Different plane, different configuration. There was a 5hr30 min. connection wait in Amsterdam (o.k. I expected that) but when I got to the gate for the second lap of the journey, when it was time to board, we were told there was no cabin crew, the said 'stuck in traffic'. And so we waited for over half an hour before beginning to board, and that flight was approx. an hour late getting in to Inverness. My family checked when…

A member since 2009 884617900, currently a sliver card holder with over 90 flights around the world. Today I am writing to tell you that I will not use KLM again due the lack of care and attention that cost me a day’s business, but more importantly I witnessed and experienced appalling levels of communication and service that horrified me and other passengers from the Air France team.

On 5/23/2016 I was on flight KL 1386 from Kiev to Amsterdam. My booking code was 36L480. The flight was delayed, resulting in my missing the connecting flight to Atlanta in the USA. I received a very nice courteous email, apologizing for the missed connection. In the email it was stated that KLM would arrange transportation and a room for my forced stay of the night in Amsterdam. On the flight we were told that the Atlanta flight had been missed and that we needed to go to a transfer desk.

Upon arrival, I went to a transfer desk, but was informed that I specifically needed transfer desk number 4. Big place, but after a long walk I found the desired desk. Kiosks outside, with a helpful lady to put in my information. Result: printout telling me to see an agent. So I got in line with 24…

Here is my complaint about the KLM corporate office. I purchased a ticket on the 27th Feb for Bangkok between the 7th April - 17th April on the website of Supersavers for 700EUR. When I checked the confirmation, I realized that I made a mistake with the date and I should have booked it on the 8th of April. At the time I realized it was 5 min after I purchased the ticket. Then I wanted to call the customer Service of Super savers who was actually closed at the weekend. I spoke with one of KLM agents Cisco on Saturday and he told me that there is a 24h cancellation policy and he put a note on the reservation that I called within 24h.

Today I called again Supersavers and they told me that they need KLM authorization to change the date (I don’t even want to cancel it, I just want to change…

On my outbound flight I was charged £38.30 at Glasgow airport for the excess baggage. My case weighed 9kg. It was very early in the morning and I was unwell so did not want to create a fuss, there was also a large queue behind me. I assumed I had not read the terms and agreements correctly. When I arrived in Madrid my luggage had been lost and was not returned to me until the Sunday afternoon.

24 hours without my personal belongings meant I had to buy new underwear, top and jeans totaling 40 euros. On my return flight I checked the weight of my suitcase and it was 9kg. I asked the KLM assistant at check in my baggage allowance to be advised it was up to 23kg! Also on both inbound and outbound flights there were a number of passengers with much larger and heavier bags than me! In summary I…

On the 7th of September, I was due to travel from Entebbe. I arrived at the airport an hour before take - off, there was no staff to talk to. was unable to travel on that day. , where I waited for more than an hour without service.

Eventually, a staff member appeared saying I was late. The staff were very unprofessional in dealing with the situation. there were other passengers due on the same flight. who were treated in a similar manner to mine. The staff advised that I attend the office in Kampala the following morning.

I was informed that I had cancelled my flight. this was not the case as I had checked in on line earlier that day. This resulted in me having to by another ticket costing me over $680. I strongly believe this was an unjust expense.

I want to take this matter further…

Had an email received cancelling flights from UK to JFK airport. difficult to contact customer services to rearrange flights. Once rearranged and a day of our holiday lost, we recieved another email telling us original flights were not cancelled after all.

We're unable to reinstate original flights. Luggage then vanished. A day into holidays it was difficult to even discover when luggage was going to be delivered, aside from within the next eight hours. Refused to call our mobile to arrange delivery as this was an international number, effectively meaning that we've now lost two days of our holidays and still no luggage.

I was travelling to Dubai and opted for KLM to be my choice of flight. I had the best journey. The crew were attentive, the meal service was high quality and very good. There were frequent rounds of water and juices between meals.

The legroom was spacious, seating was appropriate. Everything about KLM went well from check-in to arrival. I would definelty fly KLM again and would highly recommend people to use their services.
