Amsterdam to Cape Town (AMS-CPT): nonstop upgrade & award space

KLM flies the AMS to CPT nonstop about 12 times a week. With KLM flying most of the schedule, the long-haul premium cabin opens when that one carrier decides it does, which is why the calendar matters more than the search. 2LNR tracks award seats on KLM across every AMS to CPT date, so you can see whether a seat exists before you move points.

Departure and arrival times are local at their own airport, so an arrival can fall on a different local date than the departure; the duration column is the true elapsed flying time. A dash means the airline has not filed that value in the schedule data we hold. Aircraft are IATA equipment codes as filed, and can change up to departure.
