KLM CEO sees healthy demand in next few months
Dutch airline KLM is seeing healthy demand over the next few months, the key summer period for European carriers, its chief executive said, and a recent fleet renewal programme will help it combat higher oil prices. “Looking at where we are in terms of loads and traffic, we see healthy demand in Europe and on long haul,” Pieter Elbers told Reuters ahead of the annual International Air Transport Association meeting in Sydney on Sunday. Elbers said a fleet renewal programme will help the carrier, part of the Air France-KLM (AIRF.PA) group, with new Boeing (BA.N) 787 Dreamliners coming in, 747 jumbo jets being phased out and its ageing fleet of Fokkers being replaced by new Embraer (EMBR3.SA) jets.
