KLM has decided to cancel more flights to combat the problems at Schiphol. The aviation organization cancels ten to twenty return flights from European countries every day. According to the company, the workload is very high among the ground staff. With these measures, society wants to prevent things from getting out of hand.
The extra measures taken by KLM will last until 28 August. “Due to staff shortages at Schiphol and in its own operation, the workload at the airport is very high,” reports the airline. The measures aim to reduce the workload.
KLM is keeping more seats available on flights within Europe, so that passengers whose flight has been canceled can be rebooked more easily. They also promise to let everyone know in time which flights will be cancelled.

It has also been decided to temporarily no longer take cargo in the Cityhopper aircraft. “This reduces the workload for the employees on the ground who handle the aircraft,” said KLM. The cargo with mail and parcels on intercontinental flights will also be prepared in a different way, making it easier to load, according to KLM.
