Upgrade to Business Class

 
Special offer - save up to £300

Enjoy the comfort of Business Class at a special price. Our usual Business Class supplement to Quito is £749 each way. However, a limited number of upgrades are available for only £599 each way (an additional £40 is payable on outbound business class flights due to increased air passenger duty).

KLM World Business Class offers better seating and food on board as well as quicker check-in and access to airport lounges. Seats between Amsterdam and Quito offer a 60 inch seat pitch and can be tilted back to 150 degrees for sleeping. There are adjustable head, back and foot supports as well as a reading light, video screen and telephone. There is a choice of three-course menus with wine.

Between the UK and Amsterdam, seats are usually the same as Economy Class, but passengers are offered quicker check-in, preferential seating and lounge access. There are lounges for Business Class passengers at Amsterdam and Quito airports as well as at all UK departure airports.
