Based on following Dates 09 Nov 09 And Looks like throughout Winter

KL1059 11:05 / KL1060 12:00 / 55 mins turnaround
KL1063 14:10 / KL1964 16:40 / 2 Hour 30 mins turnaround

All scheduled for Fokker 70 Aircraft

I believe this is an excellent idea by KLM, Longer turnaround times allow the oppourtunity to recover some time if delays occur, it will also minamise disruption and delay if a Fokker 50 is required to operate the route.

During the winter the occurance of a non-op flight should now be reduced if not removed as now the aircraft should be fuller.

Due to the ecenomic situation it is great business sence and even though it is more bad news for Cardiff with a bit of luck next year we will see KLM flights picking up once again.

No KLM Christmas Day / Boxing Day Flights this year.
