Centralized security system works very well here. You don’t have to go through multiple times.
Don't be the first (or second) to leave the baggage hall; you'll get your luggage checked.
To ask for tax refund, first go to Tax Customs counter for a chop on ur receipts before queuing at the tax refund counters to get back ur money either in cash or credit card.
The bathrooms by baggage belt 11 are one of the nicest public bathrooms I've ever been in.
Aya MattJanuary 26, 2012stay in touch with your family and friends. you can buy stamps at book shop. letter box is yellow box next to Starbucks.
If you are headed to the U.S., buffer an additional hour for the passport check and the documentation check
easy to navigate around, free WIFI, pretty neat airport! no wonder they have over 50mil passengers a year
If you have a few hours layover, don't be afraid to go on the metro/train into the city.
Free WiFi, good coffee and best meeting space at citizenM, walking distance from terminal
ASeptember 14, 2016Airport very small but very organized. On the down side, we had to wait for 45 minutes for our luggage upon arrival!
Felix YAugust 29, 2017Efficient on departures, it is possible to check-in and clear security within 45 minutes.
For a quiet coffee shop before the customs: go to the Starbucks near Arrivals 4
A huge airport and you may have to walk a lot to get to your baggage belt
Mercy M.January 4, 2015Wi-Fi is sufficient. Dope and Huge airport though needs a better sports bar :) #JS
RoxanneJuly 6, 2013Make sure your hand carry bags are under your weight restrictions or you will have to check something for extra Euro
Meliani ChandraSeptember 23, 2011WOW! My first Euro trip started from this airport. It's a lovely one. Unforgettable :)
Christoph Auer-WelsbachOctober 21, 2013Use the lanes on the sides at the airport to bypass all the travelers and move between the gates quickly- Audrey BRUISSONOctober 31, 2012This airport is a mall in itself! Perfect place to wander, eat & shop while waiting for your flight!
Enrique Gutiérrez ArzateDecember 16, 2014Marvelous airport, big and crowded and KLM flight attendants are very hot
This is a very nice airport!! Just be careful with the people who pretend to be a taxis drivers but they are just people with regular cars trying to make some money.
Fakrul JamilOctober 20, 2016if you flying to Oslo with SAS, you can get your boarding pass at the gate itself. Or online checkin is better.
Security was a breeze! Make sure you buy any last minute knick-knacks before you get to your gate.
Per Tutti!February 28, 2014When you're at Schiphol airport and you want some quality Italian food. Pay a visit to Per Tutti!
Sometimes it becomes uncomfortable because of the number of travelers, such as today!
Dan PattenDecember 21, 2013Very festive during the holidays! The McDonalds only takes credit cards, they wouldn't take my freshly printed Euros!
Do your shopping before heading to your gate; only vending machines and pitiful cafes after the middle "hub"
Sessions of 15' free wifi on KPN network. Just accept general conditions in your browser once connected.
Don't forget to grab a coffee at Starbucks before catching your train
Roberto MontañoAugust 10, 2014Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is always a great spot for duty-free shopping.
.December 15, 2018Worse experience i had in an airport .. very long queues.. on-boarding process is too complicated so you really need to come three hours prior your departure .. and Good Luck because you need it 🙂
Great airport, a little confusing to get around inside without acquiring multiple passport stamps, but who's counting! ?
