Dutch partnership to ensure top quality

Douwe Egberts has developed a special coffee blend for KLM, which is perfectly suited to the way passengers experience flavours at high altitude, ensuring that their cup of coffee tastes just as good as it does on the ground. KLM customers will also be served this new, sustainable 100% UTZ certified coffee blend in the European Crown Lounge and the Intercontinental Crown Lounge.

The latest addition to the series this year will be the first store of Douwe Egberts in Joure. The reason for this is that KLM will be serving Douwe Egberts’ sustainable UTZ-certified coffee on all its European and intercontinental flights with effect from Sunday, 28 October.

]]>The airline has opted for a special blend that tastes perfect when served at a high altitude. This ensures that the coffee tastes just as good in the air as it does on the ground. Customers will also be able to enjoy the sustainable coffee in both the European Crown Lounge and the intercontinental Crown Lounge. The coffee will also be available at work for KLM employees in the Netherlands as of October. KLM President & CEO Pieter Elbers presented the first house to Mayor Fred Veenstra at a festive meeting in Joure today.

About KLM's Delftware miniatures

KLM has presented its Delftware miniatures on board to passengers travelling in World Business Class on intercontinental flights since the 1950s. The houses are replicas of exceptional buildings in the Netherlands. The number of houses in the collection has corresponded with KLM’s age since 1994. A new house has been added to the collection on or around 7 October each year thereafter. Next year on 7 October 2019, KLM will celebrate – as the first airline in the world to operate under its original name - its 100th anniversary.

Delicious, high-quality coffee is important to KLM passengers. The two Dutch brands, each with its own rich history, share the passion to bring people together.

]]>Starting in October, customers will drink Douwe Egberts coffee on KLM flights. Sustainability is important to KLM and therefore chooses to use UTZ certified coffee from Jacobs Douwe Egberts (JDE). KLM opted for a special coffee blend that works perfectly with the experience of taste at high altitude so that a cup of coffee will taste as good in flight as it does on the ground. Customers can enjoy the same coffee in the European Crown Lounge and the Intercontinental Crown Lounge.

In October, the coffee will also be available for KLM staff in the Netherlands.
