About the Fokker 70
Fokker Services describes the Fokker 70 as a development of the Fokker 100 with many shared systems. Fokker built 47 aircraft from 1994 to 1997. KLM began operating the type in 1996.
Seating capacity
Fokker Services lists up to 80 passenger seats. The same guide gives a mixed-class example with 12 first-class seats and 60 economy seats. The actual capacity depends on the operator’s layout. EASA records an evacuation demonstration for up to 85 passengers for the F28 Mark 0070.
Cabin layout
The passenger cabin has one aisle. In a five-across arrangement, two seats sit on one side and three on the other. The pair has a window and an aisle seat. The group of three adds a middle seat. Check the aircraft’s seat map for the layout on your flight.
How to recognize a Fokker 70
Look for a narrow fuselage, two engines near the tail and a T-tail. The Fokker 100 has a similar shape and a longer fuselage. Use the registration and full model name to confirm the variant.
Variants and related aircraft
