KLM Royal Dutch Airlines To Add Additional Flight Between Cape Town And Amsterdam From January 2025

Due to incredible demand, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines has announced the addition of an extra direct flight between Amsterdam and Cape Town from 10 January 2025 until the end of the summer season.

This increase means that KLM will now offer 10 flights per week between the two cities, providing even more convenience and flexibility for travellers.

With Cape Town being a top destination for both leisure and business travellers, the airline’s decision to increase capacity reflects the strong demand for this popular route. The extra flight also supports KLM’s commitment to meeting the needs of its South African customers while enhancing travel options between Europe and Southern Africa.

“We have seen a tremendous surge in demand for our flights to Cape Town, particularly during the summer season when travellers are eager to explore the city’s breathtaking landscapes and vibrant culture,” said Wilson Tauro, Country Manager for Southern Africa at Air France-KLM. “By increasing our frequency to ten flights per week, we’re able to provide even more seamless connections for our customers, ensuring that they can enjoy their journey with comfort, convenience, and our world-class service.”

This additional flight further strengthens KLM’s long-standing connection with South Africa, solidifying its role as a preferred carrier for both international visitors and South African travellers heading to Europe and beyond.

KLM’s strategic expansion highlights its continued commitment to supporting global travel, delivering excellent service, and meeting the evolving needs of its customers in 2025 and beyond.
