    Ever wondered how the price of your ticket is made up? Many passengers are unclear as to the real cost of a ticket and exactly how high the surcharges are. With this in mind, KLM has now made the price structure of its tickets more transparent. Below you will find an overview of the various costs, taxes and surcharges.

    Reservation fees

    A reservation fee is charged for booking a KLM ticket, the amount of which depends upon the reservation method. The cheapest option is to make a reservation via www.klm.hu , where the fee is HUF 3000 per ticket. Booking your flight by phone via KLM Reservations or at any KLM Ticket Office in Hungary costs HUF 6000 per ticket for all destinations. In short, it pays to use www.klm.hu to book your flight!

    Please note:
    • Fees are not refundable.
    •Tickets for infants and award tickets for Flying Blue are not subject to ticketing service fee.

    Fuel Surcharge

    The price of kerosene is currently high and subject to major fluctuations. Due to this, KLM needs to add a fuel surcharge to the ticket price of each flight in your journey. This surcharge is subject to developments in the oil market, and may differ per destination and the duration of the flight. The exact fuel charge per flight is always specified when booking your journey on KLM.com.

    Security surcharge

    The security surcharge is levied for insurance and security measures, as separately indicated on the ticket. Insurance premiums have risen considerably in conjunction with the increased risk of terrorist attacks. In addition, structural security measures are still being implemented in various processes onboard and at airports.

    Airport Tax at Schiphol

    The total airport tax for flights departing from Schiphol is EUR 28.00 . This 
    figure includes the following surcharges, which KLM has to transfer to 
    Schiphol Airport:

    • security surcharge EUR 12.95
    • passenger surcharge EUR 14.66
    • noise surcharge EUR 2.00                                            

    These surcharges are added together as one amount in the ticket.

    Airport Tax at destination airports

    All airports charge airport taxes on airline tickets. The exact amount depends on the destination, and is detailed separately in the total price of the ticket.

    Air passenger tax

    The ticket tax was introduced by the Dutch government last year and was a compulsory levy on all passenger flights departing from the Netherlands. Now the government has announced that it will lift this tax as of 1 July 2009. KLM has decided to stop charging the tax to its passengers with immediate effect: The tax will no longer apply on flights leaving from 1 July 2009.

    Passengers who have already purchased a KLM ticket that departs on or after 1 July 2009 will be refunded their ticket tax without being charged any administrative costs. 

    From today, passengers who book a ticket that departs on or after 1 July 2009 will not be charged ticket tax.

    Passengers who book flights leaving before 1 July 2009 come under the former regulations and will still pay ticket tax.
