Flying with Kids Made Easy: KLM's Bluey Keeps Families Happy in the Air

Traveling can be stressful—from packing and planning to the flight itself. It's even more challenging with young children: crying babies, restless toddlers, ear pressure, and judgmental glances from other passengers. But does every trip with kids have to feel like a nightmare? Absolutely not, especially when flying with KLM.

As a trusted airline with years of family travel expertise, KLM introduces its adorable mascot, Bluey, to make journeys enjoyable for children. On intercontinental flights, kids receive a Bluey play set packed with games, coloring pencils, a key ring, stickers, and a comfy sleeping mask to combat boredom and ensure restful naps. European flights come with a Bluey passport cover and activity book. During peak holiday seasons, families can meet Bluey at Schiphol's dedicated family check-in desk, where little ones get their first delightful surprise upon dropping off luggage.
