About booking a flight

Online booking

Whether using your home computer, tablet or mobile phone (including the KLM app), it’s easy to book a flight online. You can book up to 11 months before departure at KLM.com:

• All flights at a single glance, including special offers and flights operated by our partners
• One-way flights, return flights and multiple destinations: you can even fly back from or to a different destination
• Take an option on a flight and fare: we reserve the ticket for you for 1 to 14 days (depending on the fare type and departure time). You can also save several flight schedules free of charge for up to 30 days

Select extra options for your flight…

• Add the flexibility to change or cancel and earn more Flying Blue Miles
• Select your seat, choose more comfort and use Meet & Seat to see who else will be on board
• Arrange (extra) baggage at a discount and order an à la carte or special meal
• Compensate for your flight’s CO2 emissions and take out travel and/or cancellation insurance

…and your entire trip

• Book a hotel, rental car and fun excursions at your destination
• Arrange transport to and from the airport or a parking spot

Your entire selection will be totalled and you can pay for all options at once.

Flying Blue members

If you’d like to book an award ticket using your Award Miles, you can do so via your personal Flying Blue page.

Children

You can also book a flight online for children travelling with you. If you would like to book a ticket for more than 1 child under the age of 2 per adult, you will have to book the ticket through KLM Telephone Reservations.

Children ages 14 and younger may only travel with a parent or guardian 18 years of age and older. Children between the ages of 5 and 14 years may only travel alone after reserving the Unaccompanied Minor Service. Please contact KLM Telephone Reservations to make such a reservation.
