- dep. AMS 14:35 - arr. MEX 19:25 KL689 B74C Daily

And it seems KLM will introduce a 2nd KL service AMS-ATL-AMS KL623 with A332 in the Winter season 5x/week. Delta maintains its own 2x/daily so overall service to ATL will be 4x daily in Winter.

- dep. AMS 09:15 - arr. ATL 13:00 KL0623 A332 Mon, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun
- dep. ATL 15:35 - arr. AMS 05:45 KL0624 A332 Mon, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun

- dep. ATL 22:45 - arr. AMS 13:00 KL0622 A333 daily

Surprising news from KLM for the route AMS-JRO-DAR this winter and perhaps indicative of the increasing competitive forces from EK, QR and EY, KLM will reduce frequency on the JRO-DAR route from daily down to just 4x/week. In W12 KLM operated 9x/weekly AMS-JRO with 2x MD11 non-stop AMS-JRO-AMS. The daily KQ B773 could also have an effect.
