What’s a Rich Text element?

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

BRAND STORY

As the world’s oldest airline, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines has been at the forefront of global aviation for over a century. Founded on the idea that ‘the ocean of the air unites all people’, KLM’s mission is to connect people, businesses and cultures, with respect for our planet and future generations. Our customers are the heart of our brand, and our 28,000 people are at your service.  

What makes us world class

We are very proud to be recognized by APEX as the highest scoring World Class Airline in sustainability. Transforming to a net-positive impact on our planet is imperative not only for KLM, but for the entire aviation ecosystem. We are fully committed to this, and actively engage our customers and partners in this shared responsibility. APEX validation of this commitment is another step towards achieving this important objective.

What makes us world class

In the wake of the global COVID pandemic, safety & well-being have re-emerged as critical deciding factors for many passengers. Reassuring our passengers that traveling is safe, our planes are clean and the air in our cabins is refreshed through HEPA filters. This has been invaluable in encouraging the willingness to fly after such a difficult period.

What makes us world class

At KLM, we strive to deliver a consistently exemplary guest experience in both Business and Economy Class on brand integrity, comfort, engagement, presence, personalization, attentiveness and F&B execution. In the fall of 2022, KLM will introduce an all-new Premium Economy-class under the Premium Comfort brand, offering further choice to passengers.
