KLM Royal Dutch Airlines has taken delivery of its first

long-haul Airbus A330-200 during a ceremony held in

Toulouse, France.

 

This A330-200 is the first of eight Airbus long-range

aircraft to be delivered to KLM, of which six are pur-

chased directly from Airbus. All aircraft are to be de-

livered to KLM within the next two years as part of

the airline’s modernization plan for its international

fleet.

 

The A330-200 will be deployed on KLM's nonstop mid-

sized routes to North America, Africa and the Middle East.

The aircraft is configured to seat 251 passengers in a 2-

class configuration and is powered by General Electric

CF6-80E1 engines.
