The new video shows Santa decking the halls on December 16, where travelers were greeted by jolly old St. Nick in a KLM-inspired blue suit and a surprise box of gourmet treats specially curated from eight different countries waiting in their seats. 

“KLM wanted to do something special for our passengers flying to Amsterdam for the holidays and share the joy of discovering unique treats from some of the most fascinating destinations in the world,” said Marnix Fruitema, senior vice president North America Air France-KLM. “KLM wishes everyone a joyous holiday season and New Year filled with unforgettable journeys.”

KLM released the video in an effort to capture the excitement and humor of Santa making his way through JFK to deliver an unexpected holiday gift. “Try The World” boxes containing gourmet culinary products were placed on all 600+ passengers’ seats onboard both of KLM’s two daily direct flights from JFK to Amsterdam, and included Moroccan Orientines Cookies, Swedish Ginger Snaps, Italian Pannetone and Japanese Soba noodles.
