Irina ChevzhikMarch 25, 2019Very big and nice airport. Not very easy to find train to Amsterdam. Watch out around and be attentive !!! Take your smile and relax !!!
Sal GApril 10, 2019Nice designs and there is a fast line between the gates, but shipping bags takes a long time to arrive mostly. At all it’s a very good airport.
Tania M PollokJanuary 15, 2017Best airport to have a long layover. Comfy seating areas in the duty free shopping zone. Drinking fountains at restrooms. Friendly security personnel.- Huge airport, we’ll laid out for being an international hub. Some of the gates are far removed from restrooms & food courts so plan ahead.
Thisara De SilvaJanuary 19, 2015Nice airport, huge but you don't feel its busy though its really busy, and there are pretty good shops where you can buy souvenirs and stuff about Amsterdam.. And the other best thing is FREE WIFI
- Big nice airport. Exhaustive security check, it takes time to go through it and find your gate, so be cautious and go with enough time. Easy to reach from Amsterdam Centraal train station, costs 3.90€
Amsterdamers, leave a bit of space in you bags or carry your AH reusable bag for your trip to do groceries from the AH at Schiphol plaza on your way back.
Loving the new Jetsons style area for security check, replete with wall and ceiling gardens 😍 #cglifestyle
Tips: Enjoy the free Wifi, take home some delicious Stroopwaffles, and relax upstairs at the meditation lounge with stretch out reclining chairs! Peaceful and relaxing!
Banu DnzrNovember 1, 2016The dutyfree shops are limited and the airport closes at 11 pm. If you have a transfer flight you will be directed to a very far corner. The staff is friendly and helpful
Pat TaskerDecember 16, 2022Super clean. Super nice. Fairly easy to navigate but HUGE. The D concourse has over 85 gates!
Mismanaged airport. Expect extremely long security queues. We waited over an hour (1h)..
Angelos IoannisMay 31, 2013Park cafe on the upper level has very tasty and healthy burgers though a bit expensive. Try burger with avocado instead of cheese.
Brendan ElliottJanuary 4, 2018It’s huge so leave plenty of time to get to your gate. The lost and found department were very helpful (yep I left a bag at the airport and didn’t have time to go back before boarding. They found it!)
Staying for a few days around Amsterdam? Get the 2-3 day travel pass from the visitor center, also includes airport transfers and night busses
Muid LatifNovember 14, 2016Never felt sucha pleasant experience here. Smooth and efficient transition. Staff are super accomodating and friendly, airport is perfect by design.
Enormous airport with everything from food to clothes to accessories, food, bars coffee just name it , it has it all
One of my fav airports to fly back from the US via. No security on a return trip and speedy automated passport control! Plane to gate in 15 mins ;)
Love this airport one of my favorites - amazingly well organized - security check at gates is brilliant and makes travel a joy - Charles de Gaulle and JFK could learn a lot from this airport.
Alise KJanuary 5, 2015Huge! Time flies by very fast. Be sure to go there well in advance to get a chance to see everything. There are plenty of store in terminals as well. Don't miss the Iamsterdam sign just outside.
Mariana MMMarch 31, 2017Amazing airport with all services: free wi-fi, reading and resting places, shower cabins, sleep cabins. All kind of shopping can be done here.
The NS ticket machines here take Apple Pay, so it's one of the few places I've found to load € onto the OV chipkaart without a chip & pin credit card!
The food court is upstairs! Don’t get lost in the bars on the ground floor - try the vegan falafel wrap
- If you plan to shop for 25 € or more, download the Schiphol app, search for your departing flight and choose to track it. You will then get a 5 € discount voucher.
- This is how any airport should be. Modern, quick check in and luggage drop off. Also security to the gates went like a breeze! Love it!
The best spot is betwen sections D and G, nicest seats, bathrooms, and restaurants. Well worth the walk
DesigualJanuary 14, 2013Welcome to Amsterdam! Desigual is always here to welcome you back or welcome you in your first time in town, look for our wallpapers in the airport and discover the New Collection.
Terminal 3: even if you don't have any lounge access you should go to the 2nd floor right after the passport control. Those meditation center lounge chairs are quite comft
Friendly airport. Well organized. A very good shopping experience both arrivals and departures. Schiphol Plaza is a very convenient groceries place too.
For lunch buy a freshly baked roll in the bakery section and a warm meatball in the butcher's section in the the Food Village Supermarket behind Starbucks for one of the best meatball sandwiches.
Zoha ShafiqSeptember 29, 2019You don’t have to take off your shoes, take out liquids or your laptop here the TSA process is insanely efficient and I would go through it 800 more times if I could.- Best European airport, clean, free wifi and nice duty free zone. Nice place to transit to
Swen GrahamJanuary 2, 2015KLM lounge is upstairs and the best place to kill time between flights but there is also a casino if that's your thing.
It's huge but well organized, clean with free lounges where you can lie down after an exhausting flight while waiting for a transfer. Thumbs up!
Cicero QuirinoOctober 2, 2014Impressive! One of the best in the whole world! Matter of fact, visit Schiphol, itself is already a trip that worth the passage to Netherlands
Agus PurwantaraNovember 24, 2016Very comfi, lots of nap chairs, duty free shops are great with very helpfull, polite shop attendants
Bijan YoungFebruary 1, 2019Hub and spoke layout at its extreme. All sensible and readily retail. Ideal stop for chocolates and gifts for those back home.
Olivia IntanJuly 11, 2016Busiest, and the most strict and secure airport in Europe. They have a body scanner machine and do manual search on your body so DON'T you dare! 😈😈
Brian PowersFebruary 13, 2015Train station right inside the airport. Easy to go directly to the city center. If you have some time between flights, go check out the city!
Annix L.January 25, 2018Water and soft drinks slightly cheaper at "Fine Food" shops (EUR 2-2,50). Also frozen herring and Tony's Chocolonely chocolates. Smoking areas inside bar/restaurants.
Holly_louSeptember 5, 2018One of the better international airports, lots to do and places to eat whilst waiting for your flight- Hedonist TravellerApril 1, 2018Huge terminal with plenty of stores and activities, probably the best one in Europe to get stuck in for a long connection. There's even a casino for those who are into that!
- Yann PersonJune 10, 2016Huge airport but really easy to navigate through. Once you're done with security, there are a Starbucks and a Burger King :)
Perfectly run airport and amazing lounges and duty free shopping. If you are traveling this is a great airport for stopover.
Michael MurungiSeptember 15, 2014I love Amsterdam. The view from above as we land is divine. And it's because the Dutch pushed back the ocean waters and made it that way. Imagine what else is possible.
C0_okieAugust 18, 2013The best airport I've ever been to. Free wi-fi, lots of sockets for charging stuff, iPads free to use etc.
Elica KirilovaJuly 5, 2017One of my favorite airports. Very organized. It have everything - restaurants, shops, relaxing zone and etc. Very clean and protected. ❤️🇳🇱
Elena Martinez-BaudritJune 9, 2015Great airport! Take notice that perfumes and liquors in the dutty free shops here are more expensive than in Paris or Rome. Besides that, super!
Stavria K.February 6, 2017Amazing tulip corners! Bulbs and the flower itself! The deli is kind of expensive, but has unique traditional products.worth it!
