    If you're totally pissed off and frustrated trying to get behind the gates, instant relief can be found by awarding the service a big fat 1 at the voting machine. Payback: it helps a little :-)

    Head up towards lounge #52 and near the meditation area are lay down lounge chairs. Comfortable for long layovers

    The baby lounge at Schiphol is amazing. There are small sitting spaces and cots in individual curtained off pods. Also a kitchen area to warm up milk or food. Brilliant.

    Tip: if you're like me and want bottled water on a flight, save $5 in coin to buy from machine after security

    Big airport. Both Sheraton and Hilton are attached to airport property. Lounges are super far from gates.

    If you have to get a boarding pass for joint KLM/Aeroflot flight: don't go to T5 (Aeroflot), they're useless. Can't even look a flight up by number! T4 are much better (KLM). Self check-in also works

    Airport has a lot of interesting places to kill time. Areas to sleep. Its a lot of walking though. And every thing there seems expensive / overpriced - don't believe the "Special Offer"!

    If you don't have bags to check, go around the big mess of lines directly to the passport checkpoint. And there's no waiting in security lines since security checks are done at each gate.

    If you're just passing through, have lunch/dinner before you go through passport control. The food is much better than it is in the international terminal!

    Its a single terminal but very huge. Make sure you have minimum 60 minutes time for transfer by KLM else you could miss your connecting flight.

    Great way to connect from US to France. As well as France to Gremany.

    The free wifi sucks. If you have the time head over to the KLM lounge free wifi. You have to be business class to enter but you can still chill outside and pick up the signal. Password> KLMddmmyy

    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.

    Undercapacitated and uncomfortable. If you have an alternative destination, i suggest you to prefer that one.

    when the screen shows “boarding” for easy jet, you might still wait 10-20 minutes in the queue at the gate.

    Pass from Albert Heijn Supermarket at the ground plaza, before security if you want to save some money on food before flight.
