The business class experience

KLM World Business Class features Lie-flat reverse herringbone with direct aisle access (787-10).

The seat layout on KLM Royal Dutch Airlines's long-haul widebody aircraft typically offers direct aisle access for every business class passenger, so you never have to climb over a seatmate.

In-flight entertainment is delivered via 18-inch touchscreen. Dining on KLM Royal Dutch Airlines: Dutch-inspired cuisine, Genever gin cart, cheese board. Baggage allowance in business class: 2 × 32kg checked. All flights include amenity kits, premium bedding, and priority boarding/baggage handling.

Lounges and ground experience

At the home hub: KLM Crown Lounge (AMS) with panoramic runway views. At other airports worldwide: SkyTeam partner lounges worldwide. Lounge access is included with your business class ticket — you show your boarding pass at the lounge entrance and receive food, drinks, WiFi, and dedicated workspaces until boarding time.

On the ground at departure, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines business class passengers get dedicated check-in counters, fast-track security lanes where available, and priority boarding. At arrival, baggage is tagged with priority labels and comes out first — typically saving 15-30 minutes versus economy on heavily-loaded flights.
