Austin is known as one of the more unusual destinations – causing tickets to usually be quite expensive to the Texan city. If, however, you start your trip in Amsterdam, you can get the roundtrip for €338. Please note that the Light-fare only includes Luggage for frequent flyers. All other passengers – unless a carry-on is enough for them – will have to select the Standard-fare for €448.
The long-haul flights are operated with Airbus A330 aircraft and take roughly 10 hours in each direction.

This seems to be a special fare, that can only be booked on KLM’s website. We don’t have the fare rules, but we still know that the minimum stay requirement is of 6 days (or a Sunday). There seem to be available dates, especially in May 2020.
