Mumbai: Jet Airways might make Amsterdam its gateway for flights to the US and Canada. At present, the airline flies daily from Mumbai and Delhi to Newark and Toronto via Brussels.
Jet is reported to have sought and secured slots at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport and is in talks with Air France-KLM and Delta Airlines for commercial partnerships and code shares on the European and North American routes. Securing a partnership with the two carriers will be a key factor influencing Jet's decision to launch flights to Amsterdam.
There is no direct flight between Mumbai and Amsterdam after Delta Airlines pulled out from the route earlier this year. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines is a part of the Air France-KLM group, formed after merger of the two companies in 2004. The two airlines operate separately and KLM flies daily between Amsterdam and Delhi.
