Tammy GordonJune 1, 2012Good airport - wifi, shops and a fast train into the heart of Amsterdam - take the train to Amsterdam Centraal Station!

Zafar AbbasSeptember 3Thanks to Brexit, immigration queues are longer than the flight time from UK 🫠Upvoted Oct 8
Visit seafood cafe near the entry, they have very nice rolmops and seafood burgers
✨#IamRomdelacrème✨October 14, 2014They have lockers available If you want to store your luggage before going for a canal walk around town instead of waiting at the airport.- Warm welcome to all #HRTechEurope delegates, speakers and bloggers arriving in Amsterdam. Look forward to catching up with you! Feel free to already connect: Read more
Geoffrey BrownOctober 16, 2011If you are coming from the states, and taking a train, be sure to ask a person at the ticket booth for help purchasing tickets. The machines really don't like US credit cards.- Concourse D is a bit old and unfriendly. Would advise to stay after the passeport control area and enjoy the lot of places to stay before going to your gate.
Gabriel ParreirasJuly 16, 2016Great airport, small but efficient/ nice and good food, nice soveniers
It's possible to go on board with more than 100 ml. Modern technologies!
Doug RuskNovember 17, 2021You can pour your own liquor drinks in the Delta lounge at that airport :)
Train station underneath the Airport, neat and accessible.
You can easily buy train tickets (NS trains) to anywhere in Amsterdam or in the Netherlands!
Gus MoreiraOctober 12, 2014Really well signed airport! It's almost impossible to get lost in here.... If you don't speak English, don't worry! Most of the staff do.
Emile HajemaJanuary 25, 2018Without a doubt the most relaxed and convenient (big) Airport you're gonna find.
Best airport in the world! Love the sustainability corner
AlexanderAugust 15, 2013Check out the green park on the upper floor! It's a nice retreat. And you can buy tulip bulbs too! :)- Warm welcome to all international #SOSUEU delegates! Look forward to meeting you at the Sourcing Summit Europe, September 12-13 in Amsterdam. Read more
StéphanieJuly 17, 2017My fellow cloggies, 3 things to improve: more seating arrangements in the departure area, less cramped and slow customs clearance and waiting 30min for your luggage is not good enough! You can do it!
NisthaApril 10, 2018The airport is very comfortable and much better than most of the European airports
JM MarianoJuly 21, 2013Free 1 hour wifi. Cool. It's easy to move around in this airport, too. The simple design makes perfect sense.
Very nice airport easy to connect to the city and with lots of interesting shops
Andrew ZaengleinJuly 24, 2016If you need a taxi talk to an airport officer so that you can be sure to get a legit taxi.- Find yourself a nice coffee somewhere because baggage can take nearly an hour to be delivered.
David GeeMay 1, 2019Been flying thru here for years. Overall boarding, regardless of airlines, always seems chacotic and unorganized. Otherwise a wonderful airport for long layovers.
Jeff AndersonApril 12, 2013If you have some time to waste, get a fish pedicure at the spa near the casino. It's only 20 minutes, and you'll have fresh clean feet.
New bag scanners at security for G gates. No need to take anything out of your laptop bag!
Danish RahmanAugust 16, 2016Free wifi for four hours is worthy. Comfy lounge and great operations even for tight connections.
One of the best airports of the world. The staff is friendly and helpfull.
Come early for departures outside the EU, especially if you're not an EU passport holder. You go through border control first and then security at the gate for most flights. Can be very slow.
P BJune 29, 2013Absolutely the best major European airport across the board. The Dutch know how to run things!
Picking people up from arrivals costs money, one can actually pick up people from outside departures only when timed right. Parking prolonged at departures is not allowed and strictly enforced.- Müzeyyen AkyüzNovember 11, 2014everything is good in there, costs are of course normal for an airport, but its very big...
Selcuk AkgunOctober 15, 2014If you are very early in the Schiphol airpirt, get one of these sleeping chairs and enjoy it. Feels like business class.
Colin BrownDecember 24, 2013Take some time to visit the Arrivals Hall and the Rijksmuseum, definitely worth it!
Julie WroblewskiMay 28, 2015KLM "automated" bag check is the slowest & most agonizing I've ever experienced. Allow even more time than you normally would since you get funneled through it even if you checked in online
Gotta love the trickling water sound effects enticing you into the WC. Once inside, gents can aim for the famous fly-stickers in the urinals
Great airport but the walk to your gate might take quite a bit, plan for late.
