Air France-KLM will pay €368 million in March 2026 following a final judgment by the Court of Justice of the European Union, upholding a previous decision made in 2017 against 13 cargo operators. This includes the group's airlines Air France, KLM, and Martinair.
The judgement was related to past practices from over 20 years ago that were considered to be anti-competitive in the air cargo sector.
“Air France-KLM confirms its commitment to comply strictly with competition rules while constantly ensuring the effectiveness of the prevention system that it implements in the framework of its general compliance policy,” said the group.
Provisions had been made for the fines, which total €368 million including interest. The full amount will be paid in March this year.
