28.06.2024 - 17:45 / thepointsguy.com
Oregon's Portland International Airport (PDX) is set for a SkyTeam swap on its nonstop connection to Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS).
Starting this fall, KLM will launch nonstop service from the Pacific Northwest to Amsterdam.
The Dutch carrier will take over the current route operated by Delta Air Lines beginning Oct. 27, KLM said in a statement Wednesday.
KLM will operate the route with a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, flying three weekly round trips during the winter months. Then, starting next summer, the carrier will expand to five weekly round trips.

Initially, flights during those off-peak months will operate on Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays.
KLM's summer 2025 schedule calls for round trips on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
The 787-9 offers 30 seats in business class, 21 premium economy recliners and 224 seats in the main cabin.
Since KLM is one of Delta's SkyTeam partners and has a joint venture with the Atlanta-based carrier, Medallion elite members will enjoy reciprocal benefits, including Sky Priority perks, when flying with KLM.
Delta had served the Portland market with nonstop Amsterdam service for 15 years, KLM noted in the statement.
The launch of Portland will mark KLM's 21st nonstop destination in North America. Here's how its U.S. route map will look come October:
