Do your shopping before heading to your gate; only vending machines and pitiful cafes after the middle "hub"
Free WiFi, good coffee and best meeting space at citizenM, walking distance from terminal
Benefit the quickSPA services ! Convenient easy relaxing !
Kat KnechtJuly 14, 2013Don't take a taxinto the city xenter for your hotel. Its around 60 euro. Take the tram!
easy to navigate around, free WIFI, pretty neat airport! no wonder they have over 50mil passengers a year
Sometimes it becomes uncomfortable because of the number of travelers, such as today!
If you have a few hours layover, don't be afraid to go on the metro/train into the city.
On the way to D gates, sit on the bench under fake trees playing birdsong for relaxation
Going to Amsterdam Central? Sprinter train takes the same time as a taxi, and saves you 30-40eur.
Enrique Gutiérrez ArzateDecember 16, 2014Marvelous airport, big and crowded and KLM flight attendants are very hot
A huge airport and you may have to walk a lot to get to your baggage belt
Dutch fail miserably in planning- if you do not have a EU passport prep for an extra hour in passport line / 100s of people in line only and only 1 officer for non EU line : (
If you fly with BA, better make sure you know the gatenumber, because it's not on the boardingpass and D31 hits you as a surprise (10-15min walk) and closed is closed at BA:(
Borzou AzabdaftariNovember 30, 2014Security is at the gate, so don't bojangle and get there right before your flight takes off.
Don't be the first (or second) to leave the baggage hall; you'll get your luggage checked.
Security was a breeze! Make sure you buy any last minute knick-knacks before you get to your gate.
Sessions of 15' free wifi on KPN network. Just accept general conditions in your browser once connected.
It is under construction/renovation at the moment. Also gate F05 seems to have an additional security clearance before boarding
Tuba SNovember 15, 2014For families travelling with baby, there is a baby comfort zone where babies have chance to sleep, take a bath and change diaper 👍
Don't forget to grab a coffee at Starbucks before catching your train
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.
Andrej SevkovskijSeptember 21, 2014Good thing is that it has a good connection options with the city center.
Mercy M.January 4, 2015Wi-Fi is sufficient. Dope and Huge airport though needs a better sports bar :) #JS
Dimitris TzourisAugust 21, 2014Quite modern airport. There is a cool birdsong installation along the moving walkway.
Christoph Auer-WelsbachOctober 21, 2013Use the lanes on the sides at the airport to bypass all the travelers and move between the gates quickly
For a quiet coffee shop before the customs: go to the Starbucks near Arrivals 4
Dan PattenDecember 21, 2013Very festive during the holidays! The McDonalds only takes credit cards, they wouldn't take my freshly printed Euros!
Mandy FlemingNovember 21, 2010Rather than buying the overpriced sandwiches, get creative and combine foods yourself in the FoodVillage. I was for instance able to find a fitness baguette + Brie + heated up in microwave, budget: 2€
I’m sure this airport used to be better. Feels like an average experience these days. Central security search often backed up - so leave plenty of time to get through! Aircraft take forever to taxi.
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.- If you’re staying in Haarlem, Bus #300 goes to and from Haarlem.
Roberto MontañoAugust 10, 2014Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is always a great spot for duty-free shopping.
