Fuel Surcharge
The price of kerosene is currently high and subject to major fluctuations. This situation has obliged KLM to levy a fuel surcharge on all its flight tickets, which depends on developments in the oil market. On European trips, this amounts to € 30 per segment flown; on intercontinental destinations, the surcharge is € 90 (flights not longer than 9 hours) and € 100 (flights longer than 9 hours) per segment. The supplement is calculated per flight, so it is charged on both the outbound and return trips as well as any intermediate flights.
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.
