My question, isn't it better for KLM to cooperate with the Low Cost Carriers (i.e. Easyjet) on their common routes? Perhaps some kind of code sharing agreement where Easyjet is acting as a feeder?
Utterly different business models I'm afraid. easyJet are point to point LCC with no explicit ability to make coonnections, KLM serve a hub and spoke at Schipol using their narrow bodies to feed the long haul at the hub as well as offering a (arguably) quality product on inter European routes.

Not sure what easyJet would add to KLM as they don't offer through ticketing.

It's comparing apples and pears !
