COVID-19: KLM is doing everything it can to repatriate as many travelers as possible

Passenger aircraft travel is restricted by many countries worldwide. If a country forbids passengers from entering, but does allow flights, KLM will fly as much as possible in the coming days according to schedule to return passengers home. The intercontinental network will be phased out from next week.

If you already have a KLM booking and want to go home earlier, you can change the travel date via KLM.com and in the KLM app in the My Travel environment, subject to availability. It is very busy on social media and at the customer contact center and repatriation questions take precedence over other questions. Travelers who are at a destination that KLM is no longer allowed to fly on are advised to contact their embassy or consulate.

Special rates to get back home

Travelers without a KLM booking who want to go home can use special one-way fares. These rates are available for travelers with Dutch or European nationality as well as people who live outside Europe and want to return. The conditions can be found on klm.com.
