SkyTeam carriers Air France and KLM have uncorked a delicious fare for premium trips to Dubai. With departure from Madrid, you can visit the emirate for an astonishing €899 on select travel dates between October 2021 and March 2022. All these travel dates are covered by the airlines’ generous refund policy.
With KLM & Air France, all tickets for flights up to March 2022 can be canceled free of charge. You will first receive a voucher, which can be paid out to your bank account or credit card. Regardless of the travel period, rebooking is possible without a rebooking fee, but then the respective fare difference applies. You can get more information here.
Our availability calendar shows you all roundtrips up to 28 days at the lowest fare. It will forward you to KLM’s website, where you can purchase the cheap tickets with the added bonus of the airlines’ refund policy.
Long haul services are Boeing 777-300ER (Air France) or Boeing 787 aircraft. While Air France’ triple sevens are a mixed bag when it comes to business class configurations, KLM offers a new product with lie-flat-seats in a 1-2-1 configuration.
Before Covid-19, Air France still had 4 different business class versions, but now, as the A380 & A340 have left the fleet, only 3 remain. The business class in the A380 was no longer up to today’s standards, unlike the business class that’s installed in the Boeing 787-Dreamliner and Airbus A350, which is modern and comfortable. This business class is now continuously being installed in other Air France planes as well.
By now, modern seats have also become the norm at KLM. Its business class is definitely not a bad choice, also thanks to the good service. Like many other airlines, the Boeing 787 always has the newest business class seats installed.
