Les Petites Maisons



We went to Washington and came back from New York on KLM since there was a nice promotion. At the end of each flight the flight attendants present its “WorldBusiness Class” passengers with a choice of blue-and-white Delftware houses. They are porcelain reproductions of old Dutch canal houses or from its overseas dependencies and a new model is issued every year since the creation of KLM. There are now 89 of these porcelains filled with the Dutch liquor called Bols jenever. A nice touch if you actually ask me even though if you are a frequent flier with KLM you surely don’t know what to do with them after a while. (On the picture models 11, 33, 52 &53).
