Well, after three phone calls and a trip to the airport I have learned a few tid bits about KLM :
You have to call to reserve a spot for your rifle in cargo. Actually, call once, call a second time two weeks later and then go to the airport and get a reservation for your weapon. Make sure you get the customer service contact number. You will need to call again to make sure your reservation is confirmed before you fly.
If you plan to use a tuffpak don't plan on putting anything in it with your firearm. Make sure you call, call again two weeks later and then go to the airport to find out they have a strict policy that you cannot have your "personal belongings" in the same case as your firearm. So, that expansive tuffpak can have a firearm and ear protection. That's it.
Thought I would pass this along.
