KLM online check-in

KLM check-in opens 30 hours before departure. You can check in on klm.com or in the KLM app with your booking code and surname; your boarding pass arrives in the app, by e-mail, or can be printed.

Step by step

Open the official KLM check-in page, enter your booking code and surname, choose or confirm your seat, and save the boarding pass to your phone. Travelling with hold luggage? Use the self-service bag drop at the airport. Check-in itself is already done.

Tips for KLM flights from the UK

KLM flies from many UK regional airports to Amsterdam; connections onward are usually through gates at Schiphol without re-checking bags. Track your KL flight live on the KLM flight tracker, and check your departure airport’s live board, for example Bristol departures.
