Arriving on a KLM flight
When you land on KLM, your driver follows the flight using your flight number and plans around the actual landing time. After passport control and baggage reclaim, you’ll meet at the agreed point, or in the arrivals hall if you’ve chosen meet and greet.
Connecting with SkyTeam partners
KLM is a member of SkyTeam. At Heathrow, airlines from the same alliance are often grouped in the same terminal, which can make connections easier. Don’t assume it for your onward flight, though: check the terminal for each leg on your booking, and allow for a terminal change if one is needed.
