The new aircraft arrived in the Netherlands from Seattle.

 

]]>After the “Sunflower” (Zonnebloem), the “Carnation” (Anjer) is the 2nd of a total of 21 aircraft KLM will be taking into operation. By the end of 2016, the KLM fleet is expected to include 8 Boeing 787 Dreamliners.

All of the Dreamliners will be named individually after flowers: a typical Dutch export product that therefore resonates with KLM perfectly.

According to the planning as of December 14 the “Carnation” will be deployed on the Amsterdam – Abu Dhabi/Bahrain route. Dubai will be added to the Dreamliner destinations starting December 16. Later in the 2015/2016 winter schedule, the Dreamliner will also fly to Rio de Janeiro.
