The group
Two airlines, three core businesses:
• passenger transport,
• cargo transport,
• aircraft maintenance services.
The Group is the world leader in terms of international passenger traffic; it ranks second worldwide for its cargo activities (not including integrators) and is one of the world's major maintenance service providers.
The Group counts more than 103,000 employees throughout the world.
Passenger transport is the Group's main business, accounting for 80% of turnover (2006-07 financial year), with 73.5 million passengers carried, a fleet in operation of 569 aircraft, and 240 destinations worldwide.
The Group structure is simple: a holding company with two airline subsidiaries.
A strategy of profitable growth
The strategy of the Air France-KLM Group is one of profitable growth, based on leveraging its fundamental assets:
- Powerful hubs (Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Amsterdam-Schiphol) linking the medium-haul network to long-haul routes
- A well-balanced network that offers natural protection against economic and geopolitical risks
- The SkyTeam global alliance, highly integrated and growing steadily
- Services that fulfil customer expectations
- A strict cost-control policy
The priority for the Group is to draw on existing synergies between Air France and KLM.
