    awesome trip report! I'm surprised that there was food for this short flight. The row you sat is probably the best row of the aircraft, great legroom and beautiful view of the wing

    Nice flight! In the US, Southwest Airlines crew would often find excuse not to do the drink service for a 1.5 hr flight, but KLM managed to give out a snack and water in a 24 min flight...

    Hey that is a short flight but I have beaten that one.
    How about ORD to ORD in 5 minutes? Many years ago, I was flying on a commuter flight (United Express). It was scheduled to fly from Chicago O’Hare to South Bend, Indiana. That is actually quite a short route, maybe 45 minutes in a prop commuter plane. Well we took off and after only maybe a minute we started circling back, made a full 360 and landed on the same runway that we departed in what felt like 5 or 6 minutes total flying time. No announcements until we had landed. Apparently one of the two engines had an “oil pressure warming”. The bus ride to South Bend was less eventful but tediously long!

    Totally agree with you. I actively seek Embraer routes for European travel as they have great space, are quiet, and two by two seating makes travelling as a couple much nicer!

      This was the second leg of the same ticket which I did not upgrade. As you can see I got exactly the same service as in business class on the previous flight. For economy class it’s great but I was misled for the upgrade. That case is at the small claims court now

    My shortest flights were the 35 minutes travel from POA to FLN. They are the southern 2 capitals, and by car or bus it would be a 5,5 hours trip if you get no traffic jams.
    Hope we have trains...

    most KL city hopper are very short flights or with low load factors , the catering is the same as usual . 115€ for direct flight ? or you connected from UK ?

    Nice review but I can’t help but think that given the time to get out to Schipol, check-in, flying time to Brussels, Brussels Airport to City Centre (assuming that’s your destination), it would have been less stressful to just take a Thalys high-speed train and be there in 1 hour and 50 minutes. First Class ticket would run approximately $100, Standard Class maybe $20.00 less.

      @zzzowie 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@MyTrips_Aviation The Thalys leaves directly from the airport, one level down from the arrivals area, and arrives in the center of Brussels 1 hour and 34 minutes later. So it is a lot faster to get to the center of Brussels than flying. There are also many more trains than flights each day, so probably save a lot of time waiting. More important: it causes much less pollution to use the train. And the train is much more comfortable with plenty of seats. Tickets start at about 30 euro for discounted fares.

    Keeping this flight in service is very controversial in both NL and B and anyone can understand that it's environmentally irresponsible to fly for a 100 mile trip. Especially when the two cities are connected by more than one train an hour (with a station right at the centre of Schiphol airport). As a consequence, the Benelux Parliament has formally requested KLM to discontinue this flight permanently and to offer connecting passengers train tickets instead. It's exactly what Air France has been doing for years between Brussels and CDG airport.
