Grand opening of the KLM office in New York City with Audrey Hepburn and Mel Ferrer

On 5th avenue, New York s famous boulevard, KLM has moved into a former department store and has the lower 5 floors converted into office spaces. The interest in the opening was very large, this was partly due to the presence of our Dutch film star Audrey Hepburn, who would perform the opening act She was accompanied by her husband, film actor Mel Ferrer. The modernization of its settlement was necessary for KLM not only from a representative point of view, but mainly because of the increasing share in transatlantic air traffic. Ambassador Dr van Royen, recalled that in his opening words Audrey will then press a button, causing 68, 000 lights to flash behind the glass wall decoration. In the hall there is an openwork globe with aluminum segments that represent the continents. Our national airline is once again showing its best side here.
