For the 2025–2026 winter season, KLM plans to serve 161 destinations globally, with 92 in Europe and 69 in other parts of the world. Running from October 26, 2025, through March 28, 2026, the timetable offers roughly 25,000 connection options via Amsterdam. Total passenger capacity is expected to grow by around 6% from last winter, showing shifts in traveler demand across major areas including Europe, Asia, the Caribbean, and North America.

Several new routes are being added to the winter schedule:

  • Kittilä, Finland – weekly flights starting in late November, serving Lapland’s winter tourism.
  • Barbados & Georgetown, Guyana – combined route with three weekly flights.
  • Exeter, UK – added in summer, now included in the winter schedule.
  • Ljubljana, Slovenia – continues as a daily connection.
  • Hyderabad, India – intercontinental route now operating in winter.
  • San Diego, USA – direct flights beginning late February, served three times per week.

The expanded network gives travelers greater flexibility and access to a wider range of destinations. Travelers can plan trips across Europe, North America, Asia, and the Caribbean, using Amsterdam as the central hub for smooth and convenient connections. The expanded schedule also makes it easier for travelers to visit several destinations in a single trip. With more destinations and improved connections, travelers are able to organize their trips more effectively, customizing plans to match personal timetables and seasonal preferences.

Airline is boosting flight frequencies on major routes to better match passenger demand. Additional weekly flights are being introduced to destinations such as Delhi, Panama City, Bangkok, Cape Town, and several European cities, offering travelers a wider range of options. These updates give passengers additional options during peak periods while helping to evenly distribute passenger numbers across flights. These improvements will benefit both leisure and business travelers, allowing them to select more convenient departure times, connect to various destinations, and organize their trips with greater ease and reliability.

In summary, KLM's winter 2025–26 schedule demonstrates network expansion and increased capacity. By adding new destinations and increasing flight frequencies, KLM offers passengers greater flexibility and more choices for traveling across Europe, North America, Asia, and the Caribbean. These changes reflect seasonal trends and regional demand patterns, giving travelers more flexibility in planning their winter trips. These updates reflect an ongoing effort to adjust to global travel demands throughout the winter season.
