KLM Royal Dutch Airlines
On October 7, 1919, the Royal Dutch Airlines for the Netherlands and Colonies was established by deed at the notary H. Stoop’s office in The Hague. The starting capital of 1.2 million guilders was funded by eight businessmen, including Frits Fentener van Vlissingen and Anton Kröller. Lieutenant-pilot Albert Plesman became administrator and later director. Queen Wilhelmina granted the designation ‘Royal’ to KLM in formation on September 12, 1919. The first KLM office was opened on October 21, 1919 on Herengracht in The Hague.

KLM’s first commercial flight was on May 17, 1920, operating from London to Amsterdam. On arrival at Schiphol, the De Havilland DH.16 G-EALU (also known as DH 9A), piloted by English pilot H. 'Jerry' Shaw, was leased by KLM. In the following years, the fleet grew with its own aircraft, many of them Fokker, and routes expanded to more European destinations.

KLM flew to Batavia (present-day Jakarta) for the first time on October 1, 1924, marking the longest point-to-point route for that pre-World War II era. During this period, KLM grew to become the third-largest airline in the world, after Pan American Airways and Imperial Airways.

In 1945, after World War II, KLM resumed scheduled services and, in 1946, became the first European airline to offer scheduled services to the United States. The service to the Indies also recovered, with aircraft such as the Dakota and Lockheed Constellation.

In 1960, the first jet aircraft entered the fleet, the Douglas DC-8, later followed by the smaller Douglas DC-9 for European traffic.

In 1971, KLM introduced the Boeing 747 (still with the short upper deck converted into a bar) and in 1972 the DC-10, the start of KLM’s widebody fleet. The network expanded to include nonstop destinations on all continents. Despite a small domestic market, KLM grew to become the fourth-largest carrier in Europe.

For domestic air travel, NLM Cityhopper was established in 1966, and from the mid-1970s also operated regional flights in Europe. Since 1991, after a merger with Netherlines, this subsidiary has flown under the name KLM Cityhopper. KLM has also become increasingly dominant in Dutch aviation with stakes in Transavia and Martinair, which became wholly owned subsidiaries in 2003 and 2008 respectively.

Cooperation with other airlines became increasingly important. Since 1993, all flights between the US and Europe have been operated as a joint venture with Northwest Airlines (now part of Delta Air Lines). In the 1990s, there were also discussions with other European carriers, including British Airways and Alitalia, about far-reaching cooperation and even a merger. This ultimately led on May 5, 2004, to the merger of KLM with Air France to form Air France-KLM. Through this merger, the company was also included in the SkyTeam alliance. On February 27, 2019, the Dutch state owned 5.92% of KLM shares.
