KLM’s 5 Longest Flights

KLM's 5 Longest Flights

Today, KLM serves intercontinental destinations on different continents from Schiphol. If you really want to travel for a long time, a flight to Buenos Aires is the best option.

No. 5: Schiphol-Osaka (Japan)

Flight KL867 is number five. This flight departs three times a week, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The flight schedule gives this flight a flight time of 12 hours and 40 minutes. Data from Flightradar24 shows that the flight will end in twelve hours, given the latest flights. Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Western airlines are no longer welcome in Russian airspace in response to sanctions, meaning they are forced to fly under the country. This entails additional travel time. The return flight, KL868, takes even longer: the flight time is recorded at 14 hours and 15 minutes. The flights are operated by a Boeing 787-9.
