KLM Royal Dutch Airlines’ first Airbus A321-252NX has officially joined the Netherlands fleet with a busy day of first flights scheduled on the roster.
The brand-new Airbus A321neo was readied for its inaugural flight early in the morning on September 16, 2024, at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (AMS) and took off at 07:15, according to flightradar.com.
Around 55 minutes later the fresh looking A321neo, registered PH-AXA, landed in Denmark at Copenhagen Airport (CPH) before returning to Amsterdam just under two hours later.
KLM’s A321neo then left for Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER) and is currently waiting to return from Germany for Amsterdam after being delayed for over an hour.
Before the day is even finished the new workhorse will fly to Sweden’s Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN) and finally return to Schiphol Airport at 23:00, although due to delays in Berlin this is likely to be later.
“The arrival of this new aircraft is an important step in the large-scale fleet renewal through which KLM is giving a new impetus to cleaner, quieter, and more fuel-efficient flying. The A321neo will fly to Copenhagen, Berlin, and Stockholm starting today. Later this year, Paris, Prague, and Vienna will be added to the destinations. KLM will add three more new A321neo aircraft to the fleet this year,” a spokesperson for KLM said.
