Wednesday\u00a0newsletters<\/a>\u00a0always feature a\u00a0hotel<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0flight<\/a>\u00a0review.<\/p>\n I recently enjoyed a sublime holiday in the amazingly beautiful country of Rwanda. You can read my trip reports here:<\/p>\n On January 12th 2019, I flew Business Class onboard a KLM Royal Dutch Airline<\/a>\u00a0Airbus A330 from Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (AMS) in the Netherlands to Kigali (KGL), the capital of Rwanda in Central Africa.\u00a0The flight was operated by the oldest A330-300 aircraft in the KLM fleet, delivered to the airline in 2012 and nicknamed ‘Times Square’. The Netherlands’ flagship carrier\u00a0recently completed an extensive refurbishment of the Business Class cabins of its A330 fleet (which comprises 13 aircraft). The new seats and interior were created by Hella Jongerius (a famous Dutch industrial designer) and represent a massive improvement over the old product, with fully flat seats, HD-quality touchscreen displays, and a brand-new inflight entertainment system. Unfortunately, KLM choose for a 2-2-2 Business Class seat configuration on its A330s, which is not the best in the skies and definitely a step down compared to the carrier’s B787 fleet, which features Business Class seats in an excellent herringbone 1-2-1 layout. That said, I always enjoying flying KLM, because of its fantastic cabin crew, the incredible attention to details (e.g. innovative tableware, a designer amenity kit), and the Delft Blue miniature Dutch houses (filled with gin) as a souvenir gift.<\/p>\n Have you ever flown KLM\u2019s Business Class? What was your experience? Leave a\u00a0comment<\/strong>\u00a0below.<\/p>\n In this review (more information & photos below my Youtube clip & slideshow):<\/p>\n\n
