I bought an airline ticket for klm but it says operated by delta airlines. What does that mean?

KLM is operated by Delta airlines in the US, KLM is a Dutch airline, foreign airlines are generally operated by American airlines (the affiliation not the company) when they are operated in the US, you most likely will be on a KLM airplane still, but it may be a Delta plane
If you provided date and time and flight number(s) I could get you a precise and exact and true answer.
It's usually a codeshare flight. Ticket sold by KLM for a Delta Flight that is also given a KLM flight number.
It's unlikely a KLM plane with Delta crew. There are Delta marked planes operated by smaller airlines into smaller cities. It could also be a Delta flight not codeshared.
There are 3 major global alliances operating in the USA.
Oneworld, Skyteam, and Star
Delta and KLM are both Skyteam along with 17 other airlines
They connect with each other and have financial arrangements. You can get and use frequent flyer miles on any of the Skyteam programs for that flight. You can get and use airport lounges to your status.
It means the plane you're going to be on is a Delta airlines plane that you bought from KLM. I work for an airline. It's just a simple code share agreement. But it will be a Delta plane.
That is very unfortunate for you. KLM is less profit driven than Delta, so the planes are nicer and food is much better. But you never know when you book a ticket now who is going to be operating the flight. I booked a ticket on United recently, and only the legs inside the US were operated by United. The others were operated by Austrian Air, Aeroflot, and finally, Lufthansa (the best).
It means you'll be on a Delta airplane. Airline partners often do codeshares.
It is Delta that has a contract with KLM. It is really Delta with a KLM everything. Weird I know
It will be a Delta aircraft but they code share with Kim.
It is a code-share flight. KLM and Delta are part of the SkyTeam Alliance. Sometimes airlines will allow their partners to sell tickets on their flights. Since the flight is operated by Delta Airlines, you will be boarding a Delta Airlines aircraft and not a KLM aircraft.
KLM and Delta Airlines are both partners. You may have bought the ticket from KLM, but will be flying Delta if it says "operated by Delta Airlines".
KLM and Delta code share (they were partners) you are riding a Delta flight with as Delta crew
- But why turkish airlines didn't allow me to boarding pass? Is it ticket issue or another issue? I have family reunion visa of Brazil. Which is valid 1 years. And i bought one way ticket from turkish airlines.
- Trying to get a plane ticket with Southwest Airlines. When trying to open an account it takes my name ok, but when it comes to the address,? It keeps telling me to enter a valid address. I did give them my correct address! I have tried Chrome, Firefox, and Bing all with the same results. I have tried this many times over two days with the same results. What gives?
- What's the exact meaning of flying in? Does it mean hopping on a plane or arriving at your destination? I recently got asked by one of my friends when I'm flying in. Then I just wondered if he meant by when i'm arriving at the airport or hopping on the plane. any help is appreciated.
- I bought a nonrefundable ticket and couldn't fly because of a panic attack that happened at the airport. Can I still get credit/money back? I was told they would charge me $200 to change each ticket--which is about how much the tickets cost me. Which is preposterous. Other airlines charge $20-$40 to do this in many cases.
