KLM Royal Dutch Airlines

Airlines have announced they will file cassation proceedings as the legal row over noise at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport continues.

Amsterdam Schiphol and KLM are embroiled in a row over noise-reduction procedures, with a court verdict on the Dutch government's appeal imminent.

KLM Royal Dutch Airlines has submitted a plan to the Dutch government detailing how it will lower noise at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport without a flight cap.

KLM and other carriers are facing the Dutch government in court this month in an appeal over noise level management policies that could see summer flights cut.

Airport caps and route cuts are becoming European governments’ go-to environmental tools, even if they don’t work.

Objections from airlines have been rejected by the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets.

The Dutch government’s unilateral decision to reduce the number of flight movements at Schiphol Airport by 60,000 from November was egregious and unlawful.

Infrastructure Minister Mark Harbers told Dutch MPs that the government would be appealing the ruling.

A court ruling against government plans to limit flights is good news for KLM and others, but the future is far from certain.

The ruling comes just a day after Royal Schiphol Group, which operates the airport, set out its own plan to become “quieter and cleaner.”

Amsterdam Airport Schiphol has issued a proposal to abandon plans to build an extra runway, ban private jets, and tighten limits on night flying.

Schiphol Group says the cap of limiting the airport to 460,000 annual flight movements beginning with the 2023/24 winter season is "feasible and workable."
