This site includes a facility to look up air fares for the entire KLM/Northwest route system but as with so many similar sites you have to enter precise flight dates and times (leading you to fear that a reservation will be made even when you just want to look up prices), the response time is very poor, the operation very vague and unreliable and the resulting prices apparently very far from being competitive. A particular problem with this site is that each flight is listed repeatedly under its various flight numbers, once as a KLM flight, again as a Northwest flight and for the feeder flights to Amsterdam yet again as a KLM UK flight.
