Starting 30OCT, KLM will launch its new intermediate cabin, the Premium Comfort Class, on its daily YYZ-AMS (KL 692) route.
The B787-10 aircraft which services the route will be equipped with 318 seats: 38 in Word Business Class; 28 in the new Premium Comfort cabin; and 252 in Economy of which 39 are Economy Comfort seats featuring more legroom and recline than a standard seat.
"We are delighted that Toronto has been chosen amidst the first destinations to offer the brand new KLM Premium Comfort class to our customers," said Jean-Eudes de La Bretèche, General Manager for Air France KLM Canada. "Passengers will enjoy wider seats, more legroom, a larger screen and a distinctive catering concept."
Premium Comfort seats feature a 38-inch pitch for additional legroom, an 8-inch seat recline, a 13.3-inch screen, and noise cancelling headphones, among others. Other benefits include a Premium Comfort Class meal for pax, selected wines and liqueurs, Sky Priority, and a premium amenity kit, among others.
The new seats in Premium Comfort Class were designed by Collins Aerospace together with specialists at KLM Customer Experience. Apart from their design and comfort features, the seats are also lighter than previous designs. Similar care was taken in selecting catering materials for Premium Comfort. They are either reusable (special cutlery, bowls and plates made of lightweight polypropylene) and those that are not reusable are made of recycled PEF. All materials were assessed in terms of circularity and weight.
