The airport is gigantic. Flying in from a European country and getting your luggage and then out felt like it took nearly as long as flying in from the US and having to go through customs. The walk to the baggage claim from the FinnAir terminal was incredibly long and the baggage took what felt like forever. There are tons of restaurants and shops here. Unfortunately if you need to eat gluten-free, this airport really doesn't have options. They do sell the cheese that is for sale at all the gift shops around Netherlands here after security and at a cheaper price than many tourist shops and even the cheese factory itself in Volendam. Security and immigration are definitely a hassle here with their questions. Be prepared for Dutch bluntness. You have to be blunt right back with them. I had a new in box water filter in my carry-on because I went to a remote cabin in Finland for a week. Security tried to give me a hard time about why I had a water filter as if that's somehow contraband. Just be very direct to the point it comes across as rude (for Americans) when responding. I had a mini mental hair clip the size of my thumb print go off and I had to get a pat down and they almost made me take it out of my hair to get scanned. Some issue with the new European passport and fingerprint scan thing (EES) flagged me so I had to talk to immigration. Naturally the line for everyone who got flagged happened to be the immigration officer trainee line so it took 3-4x as long as the other immigration officer lines because staff was walking the trainees through what to ask and type. I was seriously worried I'd miss my flight. My husband didn't get flagged and had time to order food and eat it at a restaurant downstairs in the terminal, that's how long a passport check after security took. Flying in isn't bad but omg flying out is a hassle and you'll need to give yourself extra time with the new EES system implementation. Latest visit: June 2026

There was a very long queue at security and the security staff were overwhelmed and stressed. An improvement in this area is necessary My flight was delayed by 40 minutes.

There was only one person in the duty free shop, which means you might have to wait for ages. Also, there are no self-service check in machines for flybe, so you have to queue with people who are checking in luggage.

This airport has a lot of connectivity to other airports throughout Europe and north Africa. We recently caught a direct flight from Eindhoven airport into Marrakesh, Morocco for our seventh marriage anniversary trip and it was so very convenient for us. Some of the boarding procedures struck me as odd because since this is a very small airport, you are made to stand outside and walk to your plane. I have done this another small airports but we were made to stand outside in the freezing rain for a long time due to slight miscommunications before we got the green signal to board our plane. If they could iron out these small inefficiencies, I would give this airport five stars.

The digital directory screen was very easy to follow once we looked online to see which train we needed. There are intercity trains and sprinter trains which are slower or quicker because of the number of stops I think. We needed the 11:13 train on platform 5a to Uitgeest. We were t hungry yet but if we had been, the station has multiple places to buy pastries or snacks for travel. We only had to wait on the platform for about 15 minutes. The seats were comfortable and had options for 2 together or 4 facing each other for families. The ride was very smooth with only 2 stops before ours.

At the gate, they had us in separate lanes for when we would board and cameras compared our photograph with what they had recorded when we checked in, making for a streamlined process. My husband and I sat in the aisle and middle seats of the middle section of seats. Leg space was standard, as were the touchscreen,audio jack, and USB my plugin available per seat. We watched an animated movie called Batman Aztec: Clash of Empires which cleverly adapted the Batman mythology to the time of Hernan Cortes and Montezuma. Then we read some, and napped some, and I also watched F1. The 9 plus hours passed quickly, during which KLM staff served us two meals and a snack. The staff were cheerful and helpful, and overall the travel experience was very pleasant! We were tired because we only slept 3-4 hrs, but very satisfied. Highly recommend KLM!

I was told by their agent that they will give refunds on meals and hotel if we submit original receipts. This was back at the beginning of January 2026, and we submitted and uploaded everything online. To date, I've been calling them to check on the status, and every other week, they tell me they will escalate the claim and check back with them later. It has been over three months, and they continue to give you the same b.s. excuses to check back later. Online, under my account, it says the case is closed, and I can no longer make a claim as the date has passed, and their computer automatically closes the case. My family and I will NEVER book with them again. They will NOT reimburse any refunds, and they are a bunch of liars!

My fifth time catching a Delta flight out of Amsterdam. Two to Boston, one each to Detroit and JFK…read more Now I'm flying to the mothership, Atlanta. And unlike the first four times, I'm no longer a Diamond Medallion after a job change and significant downturn in my personal flying travel. This is how most passengers fly. My train to Schiphol was delayed so I didn't have time to hit up a lounge and I didn't have time to pick up anything along the way to the gate. It was a fast walk from the train platform, a priority queue at the ticket counter to check my bag (a ten day trip that was too big for a carryon plus two bottles of French wine), a rush through security and then more fast walking through terminals to the gate. I arrived in time to watch the Delta One cabin board. Fifteen minutes later, everyone was on the aircraft and the doors closed. It was organized chaos as too many passengers standing in the way ("gate lice") but the ground services team doing their best to keep an aisle clear. On board my Airbus 330, we pushed back on time, spent some time on the deicing pad, and then we were off on one of the closer-in runways (not the famous Polderbaan that seems halfway to London). On board service in the cheap seats was good from the flight attendants. We had drink services, lunch (I chose a decent cheese ravioli over a chicken curry hoping to avoid spilling it) and a light dinner (a cheese toastie). The wifi worked well, the power outlets worked well and while I didn't manage to sleep, I did get a doze in between movies on this ten hour flight. Improvements? Not much that's within the airline's control. The terminal could be roomier. The passengers could sit until it's time to board. Europe could be closer. Flights could be cheaper, I suppose.

There were several delays but that was all. To get to the nearest train station you have to take a bus to Düsseldorf. The price for that is 14 EUR. It takes you an hour and a half.

Good parking possibilities, too. Weeze was a military airport once. It is very close to the Netherlands, to the Dutch border. I would always go from here again. Remember: Weeze is not Düsseldorf!

We used KLM Crown Lounge 25 (one of two KLM lounges at Schiphol Airport, the other being KLM Crown…read moreLounge 52) during our layover in Amsterdam. We had flown in from Las Vegas (9 hour and 5 minute flight, the longest flight I've ever been on so far) and were waiting to board our flight to Budapest to start our two-week long journey to Europe. I'm probably going to get a ton of heat from saying this, but this here was my first time traveling outside the United States, and Amsterdam Schiphol was the very first European airport I've been in (while this is true, Hungary actually ended up being the first European country I've stepped foot in). This lounge also wasn't a very far walk from our assigned gate. This lounge is huge and they have plenty of seating all around. While I didn't get the chance to try their food, I ended up trying their coffee, which will always be my go-to drink anytime I end up inside of an airport lounge. From what I've been told, the coffee in Amsterdam is really good, and being the coffee lover I am, I'm looking forward to it once we actually make our way back there. Using the coffee machine was a little confusing at first, but eventually I got the hang of it. Showers are included if you're just coming off a very long flight and require a connecting flight. The restrooms here, while smaller than the ones I'm used to back at home, are also clean and very well kept. We may return to this lounge on our way back home to Las Vegas, depending on what gate we may end up in.
