1 century, 10 decades, 100 years
KLM first spread its wings on 7 October 1919 and that means it celebrated its hundredth anniversary during 2019, making it the world’s oldest airline operating under its original name.
As usual, the carrier unveiled a new Delftware miniature house on its birthday. Huis ten Bosch Palace in The Hague, the home of Dutch King Willem-Alexander, Queen Mรกxima, and their three daughters was chosen and is already a collector's piece.
That was just one of a number of special celebration the airline had for its 100th birthday. Take a look at the following video for more on KLM in 2019.

KLM’s Digital Studio photographed the entire fleet on the inside using a 360-degree camera. They created a virtual fleet. That’s extremely handy for the cleaning crews so they can see the inside of the aircraft before starting their work. But it’s also a useful way to train crew members. And don’t forget the passengers and aircraft fans, because now you can also have a look onboard and see the places you normally don’t get to see.
