I hate the check in que for the 6.10am flight from NCL to AMS as its always big. I have got the early afternoon departure a few times and that is normally ok.

What is the NCL 15:55 AMS 18:25 KL964 flight usually like on a thursday?

I can get a connection on the early bird or the 15:55 dept. Which would you recommend?

Also has anyone flown to Milan Malpensa airport? What is the Lounge like?

What would be the best way to get to Milan centre from there at 10pm?

Thanks and a happy New Year to you all.
