KLM is to take delivery of two Boeing 777-300ERs in spring 2015, one from Boeing and another from Air Lease, taking its total 777-300ER fleet to 10 aircraft.

It has also extended leases on three 737-800s and one 777-200ER that are already operating in KLM’s fleet.

A KLM spokesman confirmed that the Dutch carrier has ordered one aircraft direct with Boeing. This is due to arrive in April 2015.

The Air Lease aircraft, also a new 777-300ER, will be delivered in March 2015 and will remain with KLM on long-term lease.

The spokesman said that the two additions will take KLM to a total of 10 777-300ERs.
