Schiphol: busy but manageable, don’t come too early | Inland

According to the spokesman, there are no significant problems as far as known on Saturday morning. There has also been no widespread complaint about the airport on social media. Schiphol advises travelers to check with their airline how far in advance they are expected at the airport, also to avoid unnecessary waiting.

Those who travel via Schiphol have been dealing with queues that are so long that some even miss their flight for weeks. Airport CEO Dick Benschop will have to answer to the House of Representatives for the chaos, which arose partly as a result of staff shortages. According to the airport, it will remain busy every day until the summer holidays.

Schiphol recently came up with an action plan to prevent crowds and long queues of passengers during the summer period. For example, Schiphol wants to recruit more security personnel, make the employment conditions more attractive for employees and improve the flow of travelers in the terminal. This concerns, for example, coaches who help people through security more quickly and improved information provision. Agreements are also made with airlines about reducing flights and rescheduling flights.
