If you’ve been saving Delta SkyMiles, you may be wondering: Can I use them to book a KLM flight? The answer is a resounding yes. Because Delta and KLM are partners in the SkyTeam Alliance, you can use your miles to fly with KLM to destinations across Europe and beyond.
For seniors, this is a fantastic way to stretch your travel budget, enjoy comfort, and make those long-awaited trips happen. And if the booking process feels confusing, don’t worry—help is just a call away at (831-298-4213).
KLM and Delta have been partners for years, sharing routes and rewards through SkyTeam. That means your hard-earned miles don’t just work on Delta—they open doors to international adventures.
Travel experts often highlight that international partner flights can deliver some of the best value per mile. For example, a round-trip Delta fare from the U.S. to Europe might cost $1,200, but using SkyMiles on a KLM-operated flight could save you hundreds, with only a small tax or fee to pay.
Real-world story: Susan from Ohio booked a KLM flight to Amsterdam using Delta miles to visit her daughter. Instead of paying cash, she used 60,000 miles and paid just $95 in fees.
Booking a partner flight is easier than you might think. Here’s how:
Visit Delta’s website and sign in with your SkyMiles number.
If you’ve never logged in before, Delta’s website will guide you through setting up your account.
Select the “Shop with Miles” option before you search.
Enter your departure city, destination, and travel dates.
Look for flights marked with the KLM logo in the search results.
Choose the flight that works best for you.
Confirm your details, then use your SkyMiles balance to pay (plus taxes and fees).
If booking online feels overwhelming, call Delta—or reach out at (831-298-4213) for support.

Mileage prices vary. Saver awards (lower mileage levels) are available if you book early or travel during less busy times. Standard awards cost more miles but can still save you money.
Most international tickets include small surcharges, usually between $50–$150 per ticket. Compared to paying thousands for airfare, this is still a bargain.
Example: A senior couple flying Atlanta to Paris on KLM might each use 60,000 miles plus about $90 in fees.
Here are a few easy ways to maximize your rewards:
Book early (6–10 months ahead) for better mileage rates.
Be flexible with dates—mid-week flights often cost fewer miles.
Use Delta’s “Flexible Dates” calendar to compare mileage costs across different days.
Consider miles + cash if you don’t have quite enough SkyMiles.
Call for help if you’re unsure—there’s no shame in asking.
