KLM Royal Dutch Airlines issued this report for the second quarter:

In the second quarter of 2021, KLM reported an operating loss of EUR 185 million, compared to a loss of EUR 493 million in the same period last year, when the coronavirus pandemic was at its height. Second quarter revenues this year amounted to EUR 1,207 million, compared to EUR 701 million in 2020.

Although the results for the period indicate a clear improvement compared to 2020, they are far behind pre-pandemic figures. Nevertheless, these results constitute a significant impulse on the road to recovery.

2021. aasta esimesel poolaastal kandis KLM tegevuskahjumit 522 miljonit eurot ning tulud ulatusid 2,137 miljoni euroni. 2020. aasta esimesel poolaastal sai KLM kahjumit 768 miljonit eurot, tulud ulatusid 2,841 miljoni euroni.

Meie edukas keskendumine kulude kontrollile ja võrgustrateegia, et teenindada võimalikult paljusid sihtkohti, kompenseeris mõnevõrra meie reisijateveo negatiivseid majandustulemusi.

Me tervitasime 3.7. aasta esimese kuue kuuga 2021 miljonit reisijat. See on palju vähem kui 6.7. aasta esimesel poolel vedanud 2020 miljonit reisijat, kuigi tasub mainida, et äritegevus püsis 2020. aasta esimese kahe kuu jooksul pärast seda suhteliselt normaalset. mis suleti peaaegu täielikult.

Hooldusdivisjon on kogenud ka hilinenud taastumise mõju – tulud kolmandate isikute lepingutest vähenesid 49%, 225 miljoni euroni. Meie kaubaveoäri oli taas tugev, käive kasvas 57% 974 miljoni euroni.

Kohandatud reisimeetmed Euroopas on klientide jaoks positiivsed
Recovery was delayed and did not take place as anticipated, only materializing in the first half of 2021, with the coronavirus pandemic coming in waves, accompanied by strict travel restrictions, including compulsory tests for transfer passengers in the Netherlands. This caused uncertainty among customers with regard to booking. Moreover, the strict entry restrictions imposed by many Asian countries and the restrictions on Europeans traveling to the United States remain in force.

On positiivne, et Hollandi valitsus muudab 8. augustist oma Euroopa-sisese reisimise poliitikat. See pakub meie Hollandi klientidele suuremat kindlust ja tagab, et reisivõimalused sõltuvad vähem nakkuste arvu muutustest.

The need for harmonization of travel regulations within Europe remains essential. Our customers need clarity and predictability.

KLM-i kriis on pakkunud soodsa pinnase innovatsiooniks, mille näiteks on meie Upload@Home teenus, mis võimaldab klientidel kontrollida oma koroonaviirusega seotud dokumente enne väljalendu üha suuremasse hulka sihtkohtadesse.

"Our results for the first half of 2021 are rather chequered, but the first signs of recovery are becoming clear. Especially during the first months of the year, recovery in overall passenger traffic was hampered by delays. At the same time, our cargo results have remained strong and we have focused on cost control, benefited from state support programs (NOW), and we saw European passenger traffic recovering at the start of summer. The coronavirus pandemic has lasted longer and been more unpredictable than anticipated. It is therefore even more important to remain agile and innovative. We are achieving this, among other things, by expanding our network with destinations where we expect to see demand recovering first.
The agility, resilience and wide array of initiatives that KLM staff have demonstrated and undertaken in the past six months have helped to contain losses. In addition, we are pursuing investment in digitization, customer service, sustainability and product to ensure that KLM is ever-ready on the road to recovery.”
