KLM History: Route Khartoum - Mauritius - Batavia (1949) In 1949, KLM opened one of its most ambitious routes: from Khartoum, across the Indian Ocean to Mauritius, and onward to Batavia (today’s Jakarta). ✈️🌍 These flights connected continents in a post-war world hungry for speed, adventure, and global connection. It marked a bold step in aviation history—linking Africa, Asia, and Europe with Dutch wings in the sky. #aviationhistory #KLM #worldaviation #travelbackintime #historyfacts #airlinerh
