An ultra modern, beautifully blue themed, pristine sardine can. The so-called business class is shocking. Thank you for this informative video. I'm sure some frequent fliers will think twice.
The A321NEO is a fantastic aircraft! I flew on an American Airlines A321NEO in January to Los Angeles and I enjoyed it very much! I even got invited to the cockpit!
Great report! I really like the new cabin, it looks so smart and refreshing! Although I expect more for the “business-class” seats, and also I’m not a big fan of box meal for business-class passenger 🙄
I'd suggest taking Iberia's first transatlantic A321XLR flight from Madrid to Boston on November 14th. If you will be flying Iberia's first A321XLR flight to Boston on November 14th, hope to see that trip report on TH-cam soon!
I like it very much. Tailslandian Airways has about 45 of the A321neos in their fleet, while Tesla Air has 56, and Air Eleanoria has 67 (25 of them operate to South America, 5 operate to Puerto Rico, 10 operate to Mexico, 2 operate to Greenland (although there aren't any direct flights from the US to Greenland), and the rest operate to the US, Canada, Hawaii, and Alaska (Anchorage, Honolulu, Los Angeles, Sacramento, Las Vegas, Boston, and Chicago-O'Hare are perfect examples).
You're home country is Mexico? Nice! My home country is the Netherlands and I am happy to see this new aircraft type flying for the national flag carrier.
@@meliskramer4520really? I have flown Alaska and they are fantastic. The pilot has always come through the cabin and spoken to passengers, never had that on a Lufthansa or BA
Cmon the business class has economy seats, and the economy class has seats without an adjustable headrest like a low cost carrier. Plus no IFE screens. EU airlines have to do better. The lighting looks beautiful though
@@sebastiannielson1952 It's also incomprehensible from an European perspective that US carriers do not offer lounge access on a domestic first class flight and also no catering on these distances.
But you also have to remember that European legs aren’t as far and as long as it would be in the US. US is much bigger and greater distances are flown by narrow body aircraft which makes it essential to have more comfort in narrow bodies for 5 hours long. In Europe a long flight is considered 3 hours. Many of them are under 3/2 hours and most of them are between 2 or even under an hour. So with that length, no screens but wifi onboard and no recline will do just fine. KLM is also one of the very few airlines in Europe to serve free drinks and a snack on any short-haul flight. I do think the Business Class looks below average from what I expect from KLM, but Economy would work fine for me.

@@ManualFlying can’t they pay attention to what is offered already in Middle and Far East from a dedicated business class cabin on narrow aircrafts with 2 by 2 seats configuration!!!! 🤔
remember, besides now when it was the first flight, your bun of bread on the tray table is e-coli etc :D ive seen women change their babies diapers on them!
If that's business I'd hate to see the economy!! It would make me a tad nervous if 20 ground crew were standing in a line watching the plane take off. Lol But really ..That's not a business class seat. What do you think about it?
This is the norm for the vast majority of business class flights within Europe. It doesn’t bother me, the seat in the middle of the row is not occupied and in general, business class is not 100% full for European flights so it is not uncommon to have a row all to yourself
These seats look incredibly uncomfortable, i dont know how they comapre to the A320neo which ive sat in before but they are not comfortable to say the least

Economy class looks the exact same as Transavia’s, their low cost brand’s… With even the same 29-28 pitch at the back. I mean cmon, that’s the same/even less than what Ryanair offers. In business the seats look to be standard, modern euro-business seats, better than LH group, but for example BA’s new cabins look nicer to me in both classes. Service wise they probably have the best economy service in Europe alongside AF, but catering in business is a bit so so, especially the presentation isn’t great. I do love how these jets look both on the outside and inside, but would hope that a legacy carrier wouldn’t pack their jets to a low cost standard.
> Economy class looks the exact same as Transavia’s, their low cost brand’s… With even the same 29-28 pitch at the back. I mean cmon, that’s the same/even less than what Ryanair offers. That's because Transavia's new deliveries are using the same seat - the BL3710. I mean, it can get slightly worse - KL's retrofitted 737s use SL3710 seats down the back - the same ones Volaris, W6, and Frontier's 32Q use. But it's still disgraceful to have LCC seats on a full service carrier, especially when these 32Qs are being put on longer flights that aren't necessarily limited to 1.5 hours.
I think all the seats should have adjustable headrests. Not just the front ones. Also a brand new aircraft not having IFE is a bit of a let down. Although if they have streaming to device content it's something I could live with. So did they have this option or did they only have wifi packages?
@@jeromef.5489 This is the norm for the vast majority of business class flights within Europe. In the US, there is no IFE either for most if not all American and United domestic business class / first class flights. At least meals are served in business class in Europe for flights of less than two hours, which is far from being the case in the US for short flights
I consider the food rather poor on KLM and not as well presented and looks cheap. Reminds me of the charter flights back in the 80s and 90s. Needs more meat and fancier food. And the wooden cutlery is not sustainable in my opinion, it’s also cutting down more trees. At least they still have glasses and back to serving bread!
Not a fan of the 60w fast charging capability. this to me is an unneccesary safety risk. if there's a battery fire you're pretty much f...cked. Otherwise the planes are really nice .
If I were seated next to someone like I would ask to have my seat changed. People who film on planes have NO RESPECT for other passenger's privacy just so you can make a stupid video.

Thank you for taking us in this journey... I can't wait to fly with KLM again anytime soon
Why they are worse in seat pitch than Ryanair
@@cooldood37 How can you compare Ryanair with KLM? It's like comparing Dacia with Volkswagen... 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Ryan is cheaper and nice too this so bad
it looks amazing, and very well made video!

This makes the legacy U.S. carriers actually look better. That’s rare lol.
Not really. Most European carriers are like this lol
In terms of the hard product yes. In terms of onboard service no.

Great job.
Nice one! Can't wait for the first QANTAS A321XLRs to start replacing the 737s. PS: agree on KLM euro biz

Breakfast in a box for business class passengers !!!
Considering it’s a 55 min flight, looks quite good. In the US, you’d be lucky to get a Belvita or Kind bar.
They have been doing that for years. Considering J class pax have to sit on a Y class seat... are we surprised?

It's a great concept, I liked it ! Eco friendly too and no fuss for crew on short flights.
Very nice!
The man who reports the trips is back.
thanks for posting. you dont look dutch @ all. ( just like me when i lived in holland)
Love the a321 Neo, hate the seats-
Je kunt horen dat er CFM Leap 1A motoren op zitten. Hooggierend geluid, een verademing vergeleken met de oude laagdreunende motoren van de 737's.
Was on one of the oldest KLM's the PH-BXE on the 17th from Vienna to AMS. I think these 737's will be replaced by the A321neo's
I saw you in someone else's video from this flight yesterday, so I'm glad you got this up pretty quick.
Viva Mexico 🇲🇽 feliz día de independencia
Only six rows of the better 32" seats; for such a long aircraft, what a bummer😮
I hope that one of my flights with them next year gets swapped to a NEO!
Nice
never been with KLM, however, I have been on 737-800 with Ryanair, and a 321neo of BA, I'd much prefer the 321neo over the 737s anytime
but is there also a wifi device in economy class?
dit is toch NEP business class?
🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for sharing but please ... cava is everything but Champagne ... :)
Trust me I know I got a lecture from a Spaniard about it. That was a tiny mistake from my part 😅
Why do these full service european carries have ULC style interiors?
Money
Cuz they’re trash
No water salute? Or is that not for a new plane? Nice video though
What an abysmal hard product!
remember, besides now when it was the first flight, your bun of bread on the tray table is e-coli etc :D ive seen women change their babies diapers on them!
3:39 Dan from Infinite Flight
I’m confused is this biz class? Or economy? Or premium economy? Singapore airlines can fit actual biz class seat in A320. Cmon….
Did you see dan from Infinite flight?
He's at 3:39 not sure if he knows about IF
extra slim - from seats to what you wear ? 🙂
15:20 Dude, how can you see your screen when it's so dirty?
Don’t worry I’m getting it deep cleaned this weekend finally…
No seat back IFE screens is unfortunate.
Arnt these gonna be the new SW seats?
Not quite. They are going to be the same seat model (BL3710), but WN's variant is going to have more features.
Last 3 flights with KLM were all very poor for various reasons, wont be using again.
Me either nothing good klm
No IFE? That’s sad
Full of aviation enthusiasts maybe?
If that's business I'd hate to see the economy!! It would make me a tad nervous if 20 ground crew were standing in a line watching the plane take off. Lol

ikr, compared to Asian carriers where business-class seats are usually large & luxurious, even in narrow body aircraft.

No IFE!
those seats are razor thin
European Airlines are shameful nowadays, ALL of them except Turkish… it’s sad!
Turkey is not in Europe. Compare it to other Asian airlines.

Sad thing is that you have to fly business with KLM to get good food. The food served in economy class is terrible. Low quality is an understatement.
It’s backwards tear after year by klm
In business class it isn’t so good either. And only three options to choose from…
What a revolting business class product. Truely revolting
