Interesting suggestion.

I looked into it and it is not as convenient as STN. The airport is horrible but the train only takes 40min if you time it right. If you're unlucky it'll take 1h20m.

AMS-NWI-AMS flights are offered for around 230EUR (that is KL fleecing the Dutch customer base) but the train takes between 1h20 and 1h40...

I might wanna try it out one of these days but I am not certain it is worth it.

Thanks for the suggestion.
