KLM expands intercontinental network with three new destinations

 

KLM is expanding its intercontinental network with new services between Amsterdam and San Diego (US), Georgetown (Guyana) and Hyderabad (India). From 8 May 2025, KLM will operate three weekly direct flights on the Amsterdam-San Diego route, making this the 22nd direct KLM connection between Amsterdam and North America. The Amsterdam-Georgetown route will be operated with two weekly flights from 4 June 2025, with a short stopover in Sint Maarten on the outward journey. From 2 September 2025, there will be three weekly direct flights on the Amsterdam-Hyderabad route, making it the fourth direct connection between Amsterdam and India.

The Californian city of San Diego represents a large, unserved market for the joint venture of Air France, KLM, Delta and Virgin Atlantic, with steady growth over the past decade. Georgetown is the capital of Guyana and has also been a fast-growing market over the past years. Hyderabad is the capital of the Indian state of Telangana and is known as the ‘pharmaceutical capital of India’. With these new routes, KLM continues to strengthen its presence in the world, offering its customers more travel options and tapping into a growing and dynamic market.
