KLM Royal Dutch Airlines Expands Service to Cape Town with Two Additional Flights

KLM Royal Dutch Airlines is proud to announce its enhanced winter schedule, set to run from October 27, 2024, to March 30, 2025, catering to both business and leisure travellers. This winter season will offer customers the opportunity to explore 220 destinations worldwide.

KLM will continue with its daily services to Johannesburg and Cape Town, two key South African destinations. However, from December 17, 2024, until the end of the winter season, KLM will increase its capacity to Cape Town with two additional flights per week on Tuesdays and Sundays.

In addition to the current daily flights, Flight KL597/598, which arrives in Cape Town at 21:30 and departs at 23:20, KLM will introduce Flight KL595/596. This new service will arrive at 06:10 and depart at 08:05 on Mondays and Wednesdays starting December 17.

KLM’s global network spans 155 destinations, including 89 within Europe and 66 intercontinental routes. Recently, KLM added Portland as a new American destination. In addition, the airline’s new A321neo aircraft is operational on select European routes, including Copenhagen, Berlin, and Stockholm. Premium Comfort class is also available on all Boeing 787 and 777 aircraft.

Air France and KLM have also expanded their networks by adding six new destinations, including Manila. With more direct flight options from Paris and Amsterdam, travel has never been more convenient. The airlines’ complementary schedules with transatlantic partners Delta Air Lines and Virgin Atlantic also provide travellers with even more seamless options across the Atlantic.

This enhanced winter schedule offers travellers expanded routes and increased connectivity while ensuring comfort and convenience throughout their journeys.

About us

Actually, Home Food and Travel offers a lot more than just reviews of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities. We also visit great destinations, receive advice from interior designers and stop to smell the roses and taste the coffee.

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation? Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose.

Expensive is not always better. Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday. They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice. A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday.

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance. Of these, service is the most important.

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion. However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review. We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience? The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table.

Well that’s our theory anyway. It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced. However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience. In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe. It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
