]]>With the addition of Ålesund the total number of Norwegian KLM destinations comes to seven. “KLM started flying to Norway 73 years ago. Today we are the number 1 foreign carrier. Adding Ålesund to our Norwegian network, is KLM’s logical next step for this region”, says Peter Hartman, KLM’s President & CEO.

Ålesund has a strong and growing (offshore) business market, but is also a very interesting tourist destination with its famous Jugendstil city centre and nearby Geiranger Fjord. Other highlights are the “Hurtigruten” ferry service and panoramic Atlanterhavsveien “Atlantic road”. The region also offers many winter sports opportunities.

The daily flights will be operated with a Fokker 70 with 72 seats available. The flight will depart at 14:25 in Amsterdam as KL1325 to arrive in Ålesund at 16:30. At 17:05 the return flight (KL1326) will leave to arrive in Amsterdam again at 19:15.
In the evening at 20:40 the KL1327 will depart from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol to arrive in Norway at 22:45. The next morning the KL1322 will leave Ålesund at 6:30 AM to go back to Amsterdam again at 8:45 AM.

At Amsterdam Schiphol Airport passengers can easily transfer to over 160 destinations including cities that are important for the large off shore industry in Ålesund like Rio de Janeiro, Singapore, Luanda, Manila and Dubai.
