As of August 1, 2010: if you make a reservation via www.klm.kz, the fee remains 0 USD per ticket. If you book your flight via KLM Call-center or KLM Ticket office, the ticketing fee will be 50 USD for an Economy class ticket and 75 USD for a Business class ticket.
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 € 32 per segment flown; on intercontinental destinations, the surcharge is € 98(flights not langer than 9 hours) and € 108(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 amounts to € 5 per segment flown and 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.
