AMSTERDAM (Reuters) – KLM, the Dutch arm of Air France KLM, said on Friday it would cut 10 to 20 daily flights to European destinations in the coming weeks due to staff shortages.

KLM and Schiphol Airport, which serves as the airline’s hub, have been unable to fill thousands of vacancies since the COVID-19 pandemic.

Schiphol has asked airlines to reduce the number of daily passengers to ease the pressure.

“The measures taken by KLM aim to restore operational stability, thereby relieving pressure on Schiphol and KLM staff,” the airline said.
