| | KLM Business Class to Europe, Up to 9 Seats | KLM business class availability continues to be tough to find from the U.S., but there’s a nice chunk of space from Toronto later this fall and especially in the early part of 2027. | More accurately, there’s a nice bit of space from Amsterdam to Toronto. Availability on the outbound is sparse. If you pair it with an award on the outbound, this could work well! | Now, let’s get into it. | Let me know if you book! |

| | | Flight Experience | Their newest business class product can be found on their Boeings 777s. It’s arranged in a 1-2-1 reverse herringbone layout and each seat has a privacy door. | Your next best option is on a Boeing 787 which has a 1-2-1 reverse herringbone layout, but without doors. With either layout, you’ll have a lie-flat seat with direct aisle access. | I would avoid their Airbus A330 if possible as it’s a 2-2-2 layout. While it provides a lie-flat seat, you don’t get much privacy and only the middle section has direct aisle access without your neighbor needing to step over you. | Personally, I think KLM offers friendly service, but the inflight meals aren’t the best. | | How To Search | Search with KLM: | Select "Book with miles" Select "Log in" Sign into your account Enter your origin/destination Enter your travel date(s) Enter the number of passengers Enter the class of service Run the search Select your flights
| You can call to hold award space or book a stopover. The US number is 800-375-8723. Transfers to Flying Blue are generally instant. | Virgin Atlantic Flying Club will put award space on hold for up to 24 hours, but you'll need to call to do so (800-862-8621). | Happy booking! |
