• Amsterdam – Singapore – Jakarta, 3 weekly, 777-300ER
• Amsterdam – Taipei Taoyuan – Manila, 1 daily, 777-300ER

These destinations and frequencies can change, which is why it is always good to check the latest status with the airline you are travelling with. You can easily do this with KLM’s flight status checker. Passengers are themselves responsible for taking note of local travel and entry restrictions.
