Adjusting the schedule enables us to offer our passengers improved direct connections to the Gulf States. In some cases, this will reduce flight times. The capacity removed from these routes will be deployed for new destinations announced for the start of the 2017 summer season.
The flights to Bahrain, now operated in combination with Doha, will be continued six times a week (currently five times a week). Bahrain is served after a short stopover in Kuwait and back.

Along with Kuwait, Dammam (Saudi Arabia) will also be served directly (until now, served in combination with one another). Muscat (Oman) will be served after a short stopover in Dammam. These adjustments will provide passengers with better connections to Schiphol.

Passengers with reservations for flights after 26 March 2017 will be rebooked on the most appropriate alternative flight.
KLM serves six destinations in the Gulf States from Schiphol: Dubai and Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates), Muscat(Oman), Dammam (Saudi Arabia), Manama (Bahrain) and Kuwait City (Kuwait). Flights are also offered via Paris to Dubai (United Arab Emirates) and Riyadh (Saudi Arabia).
