Large, clean, fast and with great connections worldwide. Worth investing in Privium access if commonly used.
MarianNovember 17, 2014"If walls could talk," they'd probably be a helluva lot more helpful than most of the #Schipol and #KLM staff!!! #JustSayin
ArtJonakApril 10, 2012Great shopping. Healthy food choices. Super friendly staff. Clean... have loved traveling through Schiphol for nearly two decades now. :)
My home airport! Very efficient! Nice and goes always smooth! Fly in and out of here 20+ xs a year!
Everything is under one roof. Easy to transfer. Be prepared for lines at security/passport control.
Nice, spacious and clean airport. Great hub to all possible destinations. Amsterdam by train 10 minutes away.- Luciana C.March 11, 2012The most beautiful, comfortable and agreable airport. Green rest areas, gread food courts and well organized and with signs everywhere.
Rina Anthony RasolofoniainaApril 25, 2012To connect on the KLM-Lounge wifi, you just have to put the password KLM with the date of the day so if today is the 25 April 2012 the password will be KLM25042012
Frédéric NiessenAugust 7, 2017It is a pity that on the highway instructions are not written at least in English- feels confusing to drive to there if you don't speak Dutch - make an effort please people might come from all Benelux
Very nice airport, a lot of shops, restaurants and interestings about flying like plane constructions etc. Wi-Fi IS free
The "rainforest area" close to the D-gates (right ahead once you get up the stairs) is a great spot to relax.Plenty of power outlets as well
Antonio SponzaNovember 20, 2012Insane security procedures. Get ready to pull-out of your bags/pockets every laptop, tablet, phone, player, headphone, camera, and their power supplies and cords. :-( #epicfail
MohammedSeptember 5, 2017One of the best airports I have seen! It's big, clean, and full of services and shops. ❤️
TingMay 4, 2014One of the nicer airports in Europe. Easy access and connection to the city and beyond.
Bryan PowerSeptember 18, 2017VAR Customs stamp (Global Blue, etc) is all the way at the end of Terminal 3. Need to do this before going through security. Leave at least one hour to get through line
Very nice airport. Well designed, very spacious and easily acessible by train and car.
Careful if you decide to try and buy something from one of the shops having just stepped off the plane. They're for "out going" passengers only. Very strange. Good airport overall though.
ShAugust 7, 2018The gates to the terminals are alot! Near the gates there are nice rest areas The shops & stores are many its like a mall! I didn’t like that it was an airport + train station it makes it very crowded
AMS Schiphol is one of the nicest airports of the world. Plenty of stuff to do after you checked in!
Fatih KuranJuly 3, 2016A unique airport which respects the smokers' rights as well. So many smoking rooms ! 👍
Best airport, you can get everywhere in no time. Train stops right under the airport.
Probably the best major airport in Europe. Modern and easy to navigate.
Jeremy AbandoFebruary 5, 2015Due to the wide area of this airport! You'll need to work on your foot! So Be on your platform on time or at least 15mins before departure.
Selin BaygunesliJanuary 24, 2013Amsterdam is awesome! There are a lot of place to hang around and waste a time before a flight:) everyone here clear to take off!! Here we gooooo :D :D
Duygu YavuzJuly 14, 2022Terminal 3 departures: is very busy but the line moves fast. If you don’t drop off baggages, 4 hours is sufficient to pass the security and passport.
babysmurfSeptember 4, 2011Get a day pass for unlimited use of public transport at the Holland Tourism Information booth. But to reach Centraal Station, you must purchase separate train ticket at the ticket machine.
Michael ArkinsAugust 7, 2014Smartly laid out and easy to navigate airport. If in doubt, walk to the middle of the airport and coordinate from there.
FaisalSeptember 19, 2016The Airport Park has a terrace, where you can enjoy fresh air and watch airplanes. Smoking is forbidden.
Alison CharlesSeptember 12, 2014Great wifi connections and you dont need to go to the airport lounge to be comfortable. Just grab an easy chair and a blabket
There is Albert Hein where you can bring some food & make it hot using provided ovens. Cool!
João PiresJune 15, 2013The airport Wifi is free and you have to re-login every half hour. That is a nice thing, from this airport! Other airports should learn this good service/support
Ah not a bad airport to stop over in... Plenty of shops but chewing gum has been banned and no stores sell it
Nice & comfy "sunbeds" are located at the far end of the D-wing, a great place to take a nap or watch landing planes.
Eric NakagawaNovember 15, 2015Watch out for taxi scammers (unlicensed). They will try to pull you from the official line. The official line is labeled and easy to see. Be careful!
My favorite airport, very well organized and always brand new looking
JohnJuly 22, 2013On your way home don't forget to buy some stroop waffles, particularly if you have kids! Chocolate being the favourite!
Local people and airport services are extremely friendly. Free wifi access, a lot of spots with sockets to charge you laptop.
Emily SkarbekNovember 8, 2014Victoria's Secret, Dutch duty free, and seamless access to the trains. No balloons allowed.
Alex NawarNovember 23, 2014There's a water fountain underneath the stairway that goes to McDonalds on the main floor. Also, there are outlets in the "internet center" behind Starbucks.
Luke SchuelerJuly 24, 2017By far the best airport for international flights! They have great duty free shops!
Baggage and security's check is right at the end at the gate. So ensure you save enough time and not get stuck in the shoppibg areas.
the Capi electronics store near Arrivals 1 takes visa photos if you don't have extras.
Bandar.MJanuary 1, 2017be carful of the taxi driver waiting outside they charge extra. Be sure to get a ride from the stand taxi booth only. I was charged 100 euros to go to central Amsterdam but with the official 48 only.
This is my favorite airport so far. Lors of interesting shops, and everything is well-organized.- Monica CNovember 14, 2016Very modern and clean airport. Lots of shops and restaurants. Dutch design everywhere.
Ashley SimonSeptember 7, 2012Terminal D has a nap area complete with bean bags and reclining chairs. Perfect when you have a layover. Or hangover. Or both.
