Over the years, the style and look of the cap has changed to suit the fashion of the day. KLM no longer sees any added value in pilots wearing caps.  Besides, the aim is to give pilots a more modern and accessible appearance. Consequently, the pilot’s cap for women and men will no longer be worn at KLM and KLM Cityhopper from 1 January 2018.

]]>Similarly, some other airlines and occupations have either done away with the cap, which traditionally formed part of the uniform, or they have come up with alternatives.

Caps donation to 'Stichting Hoogvliegers'

Pilots may keep their caps or donates them to 'Stichting Hoogvliegers'. KLM worked for many years with this foundation, which offers children who are ill a chance to be pilot for a day.

]]>In addition to daily service from Amsterdam, as of Monday, November 17, 2014 KLM will add an A330-200 aircraft on Monday and Wednesday with a convenient later departure from Amsterdam at 14:15. Traffic data has shown that there is a growing market in Europe beyond Amsterdam especially in Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Spain, France, Sweden, Denmark and the United Kingdom. With an afternoon departure the additional flights will have, there will be more opportunities and focus on generating more passengers from these connecting cities in Europe.

CAP and KLM have worked closely together in securing the service and will receive the support from CTB and CHATA to promote and create the necessary awareness around the additional flights.
