If you're flying KLM, are you also flying Air France?

If you're flying KLM, are you also flying Air France? - 1

Added (1). It sounds like an odd question, but the reason why I'm asking this question, it is because Air France KLM is now one company, even if KLM is Dutch and Air France is French.

Air France-KLM is a Franco-Dutch airline holding company incorporated under French law with its headquarters at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Tremblay-en-France, near Paris.

Air France Cargo and KLM Cargo, the two freight subsidiaries of the group, merged their commercial activities. The Joint Cargo Management Team now operates the organisation worldwide from the Netherlands.

They are Sky Team partner airlines and you can collect frequent flyer points for Air France when you use KLM. They also have code share flights, but you're flying on KLM literally.

Air France and KLM merged in 2004 to form the group Air France-KLM, a so-called holding company (a "mother" company)whose the French State was the main shareholder (17% at that time).

The airlines Air France and KLM remain two separate airlines. However, since they belong to the same shareholder (they are fully owned subsidiaries of the group Air France-KLM), they share quite a lot of activities and resources.

Do you know this?
--- The mother company Air France-KLM has also stakes in other airlines such as Virgin Atlantic, Kenya Airways, and many other airlines in the world.
-- The airlines Air France has also its own subsidiaries such as Transavia France, Hop! And Joon, all of them being some kinds of low cost airlines.
-- The airlines KLM has also its own subsidiaries such as KLM cityhopper and Transavia Netherlands.
-- Since 2017, Delta Airlines (USA) and China Eastern (China) have become shareholders of the mother company Air France-KLM, whose the French State remains the main shareholder (14 % now).
--Air France, KLM, Delta, China Eastern, and many other airlines are part of the international airlines alliance Skyteam.

Nope

Not necessarily.

No, the two airlines merged, bug have still retained their individual identities. Similar to how IAG works with BA & Iberia
