5I don't think it is terribly relevant in this case but it might be useful to specify when you booked the flight: Did you book it before Canada imposed restrictions? Did the travel advice from your foreign ministry (or from the Dutch foreign ministry) deteriorate between the time you booked the flight and now?– RelaxedCommented Aug 31, 2020 at 10:15

4You may not be able to get a refund, but most airlines (and I'm pretty sure this applies to KLM) provide the option of cancelling and getting a voucher valid for future travel. In some cases, said voucher can be redeemed for cash after a year, but the specifics vary a lot based on the airline, the destination, when the ticket was booked, whether the specific flight was cancelled, etc.– jcaronCommented Aug 31, 2020 at 10:15

2KLM doesn't seem to be offering Covid-19 refunds or vouchers (except for "package deals") but they are offering rebooking with no change fee. The catch is it must be rebooked before the original departure date.– Michael HamptonCommented Aug 31, 2020 at 14:19

1@MichaelHampton I don't think this is correct. KLM does offer vouchers for customer cancellations due to Covid-19; see klm.nl/en/trip/refund. In May 2020, my wife and I cancelled several KLM inter-EU flights that were scheduled to fly in June 2020; we have received vouchers that may be redeemed until December 31, 2021, and allow the paid-by-voucher flights to occur after December 31, 2021.– DavidRecallsMonicaCommented Aug 31, 2020 at 19:05

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. air-travel), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
