Amsterdam Airport Schiphol

Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is an international airport in the Netherlands. It is run by the Royal Schiphol Group. The airport serves travellers with flight preparation tools, shops, restaurants, parking and links by public transport.

Passengers can plan their trip before they arrive. The airport gives advice on how to prepare for a flight, including security and baggage rules. Travellers can book a security time slot, and the airport warns that waits at security and passport control can be long. It explains what may go in hand luggage, such as liquids and drink bottles, and it explains the new EES border checks for visitors.

Getting to the airport is simple by train or bus. The airport also has parking close to the terminal for early flights or late arrivals. Many travellers use the train to reach Amsterdam. Schiphol gives details of the journey time and routes.

On the ground, the airport offers a wide range of services. It helps families travelling with children, passengers with reduced mobility and anyone who needs extra help. It has dining and shopping areas with well-known brands, and it runs a duty free shop for tax-free purchases whatever the destination.

A Lost and Found team looks after items left at the airport. Staff collect lost items every day, from jewellery and passports to hand luggage and laptops. Passengers can visit a desk between Arrivals 1 and 2, report an item online or ask for a courier delivery. People who find an item can hand it in at a desk or leave it in a special box after hours. Identity documents and driving licences go to the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee the next day.

The airport also speaks to its neighbours and to the press. It says it works to help people live and work comfortably near an international airport.
