Jump to postNo one renews the sand, it is all done naturally. The hurricane season brings waves and tides that erode the beach, and when that passes the waves or tides go back to beach building.

Jump to postAir France and KLM both need as much cost savings as possible at the moment, but they are both trying to recapture the higher end of the market where the previous management had just kept cutting costs and wastefully spent on NEV4 seats when a new lie flat seat should have been ordered.

Jump to postWhat confuses me the most about this refit is the fact that they are installing different seats on Air France and KLM. The Zodiac seats seem so much more superior, and can't they save cost if they have used the same seats, but designed differently for each airline? Even though the Diamond seat is gr...
Jump to postI have no idea how comfortable these seats would be, but they sure don't look it. KLM seem to be getting rid of the headrest covers as well. I feel like I am disappointed with the seat though, expected more from KLM. I guess the group is really positioning KLM for the lower end of the market and Air...

Jump to postAir France has some serious issues ahead, and the recent strike made it a very public display as to how the unions have control over the management.

Jump to postIf it was a case like AF447, there were ACARS messages sent to the airline, wouldn't there be something similar if the plane hit the water or land?
