KLM Cancels More Than 150 Flights as Fuel Prices Continue to Soar

"The logic appears to be protecting the core of the network while removing marginal frequencies that are harder to justify under current fuel costs."

KLM has canceled more than 150 flights in response to rising jet fuel costs, affecting routes to European destinations like London and Düsseldorf. The cancellations involve 80 return flights from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol but represent less than one percent of KLM's total European flights. Passengers will be rebooked onto the next available flights. The airline clarified that the cancellations are cost-saving measures rather than due to fuel shortages, as the current situation is financially unviable for certain flights.
