I thought seen as KLM is a big player in the UK market, it was worth starting a new thread with a little update.

This winter will see some changes to the KLM UK network.

Aberdeen goes from 4 flights a day to 5
Bristol goes from 4 flights a day to 3
Cardiff goes from 4 flights a day to 3
Edinburgh gets 2 737-700 flights a day
Glasgow gets 1 737-700 flight a day
Humberside goes from 4 flights a day to 3
Newcastle gets 1 737-800 flight a day

EDI and GLA have had 737s operating various KL flights for years now - Forgive my lack of knowledge, but why are 737-700 flights worthy of special mention? Are they new to the KL fleet or something?

Wrt Scottish flights, this appeared a couple of weeks ago: Air France KLM set to expand service from Scottish airports - Scotsman.com Business

Apart from the extra ABZ flight, not really much in the way of the expansion suggested - Not on KL's behalf anyway. Perhaps something to come from AF?

Forgiving your "lack of knowledge"- 737-700's have never operated to Scotland for KLM, and yes they are new to the fleet. Well worthy of a mention IMHO . It will be interesting to see if this is an upgrade from F70/100/50 on some services or downgrade from 738/9's.

According to the KLM web booking engine AMS-BRS and AMS-CWL stay at 4 times daily in Nov, Dec and March. They drop to 3 x daily in Jan and Feb with the lunchtime rotations removed.

This happened on both routes last winter as well.

Does anybody know when the Embraers are due to come online and which a/c type they will be replacing?

More problems at CWL today where KL1060 has been cancelled and the KL1066 (following flight) downgraded to F50. KL1069 also downgraded to F70.

Over the last few days we have seen the KL1060 being canx and F50 has ben in the last 3 days and will return again tomorrow.

Considering CWL is now a 5 crown station and is one of the priority stations, how come it is us thats getting all the rubbish?
