KLM starts scheduled service to Lusaka (Zambia)

Lusaka (Zambia) is the latest target of KLM Royal Dutch Airlines.  The carrier, part of Air France, and a member of SkyTeam, will introduce a three times per week non-stop flight from Amsterdam on 15 May operating an Airbus A330-200 with 30 in World Business Class and 213 in Economy Class.

Zambia is experiencing strong growth, thanks to its vigorous mining industry.  Moreover, this new destination for KLM will create a direct link between Zambia’s flourishing flower industry and the Netherlands, which is the largest junction in the worldwide flower industry.

Together with Kenya Airways, KLM offers another 13 flights a week to Lusaka via Nairobi.  Thanks to the partnership with Kenya Airways, KLM and Air France can offer an extensive network throughout Africa.  The alliance flies to many destinations including Harare, Mombassa, Lilongwe, and Bujumbura. www.klm.com
