Trust Together

Restoring trust within the group is an absolutely vital part of implementing the changes that are needed to return the company to good health. This is the view Jean-Marc Janaillac expressed when he became Chairman & CEO of Air France-KLM in July 2016.

Mr Janaillac held talks with trade unions in both France and the Netherlands last week, to launch the Air France-KLM project “Trust Together”. This project supplements Perform 2020, Mr Janaillac explained. It focuses on restoring trust within the group, wherever that is needed, and identifies a number of specific, strategic topics.

KLM and Air France stress that they are continuing to implement Perform 2020, which focuses on cutting costs and achieving greater margins, in order to be able to make the investments that are necessary to ensure a healthy future for the group.
