    Free 30 minute WiFi from KPN but the trick is that you can sign up twice to make it 1 hour. Graag gedaan!

    Enjoy the tarmac taxiing. May be one of the world's longest gate approaches.

    Careful, every gate departure area has its own security process. Get ready to sit for a long time with no access to bathrooms or water once you go in.

    The somewhat verbally aggressive and self-entitled security people rummaging through your stuff are actually quite harmless :P

    BE AWARE!! of people offering taxi services in the arrival hall, they will rip you off... in front of the airport there's the only official taxi pick up place it is safe and controlled.

    Not all trains go to Amsterdam Central Station. Read the info boards before you take the escalator down to the tracks, to avoid running around like crazy ;-)

    Flight from SFO --> AMS on KLM economy plus can be very bad or fine. Broken tv, no wifi, and no outlets in their older planes. Food is questionable.
