And because of the layout of the airport with a seperate escalator up to security from that area, you are also be able to use priority security at AMS as a bonus feature.
Keep in mind: this is only the case for non-schengen flights on KL, AF or DL. |
What is the policy on +1s? I have two upcoming trips this summer on KL. The first one has 5 more people without status so I don't expect to be able to go through the SP line, but in the second I'm flying to ABZ with just a companion: any chance we'd be allowed to both go through the SP lane? I have Elite Plus status through ITA (don't laugh), which I think KL recognizes quite well.

It’s The Netherlands. “Holland” is one of 2 provinces, North (Noord) Holland and South (Zuid) Holland.

It is in fact also the case for Schengen flights on AFKLDL as the SkyPriority check-in for that is the same one in Departures 2. You simply take a right after security instead of going left to passport control.

Apparently Schiphol and the unions have found an agreement to move forward, however travelers should still expect long lines and delays over the summer.

captain told us that there is no security personnel from Schiphol that can "unlock" the right doors (D-pier is dual, schengen/extra-schengen).

Holland is exactly half as many letters , everybody gets it, and only the pedantic get upset. So I'll continue using it, just as I'll keep saying Turkey, whether Erdogan likes it or not.
Thanks for the heads-up, though. I've lived in both provinces, I've looked at them from above 1,000+ times, and somewhere I have an Atheneum diploma with an excellent grade for geography (my written exam essay was on the history of air navigation in Johan |

Would be great if they found an agreement to move their customers in those queues forward.

It's not going to help solve anything in the short run, but this Benschop clown should be booted out forthwith. That he spent his time hobnobbing in Davos, taking his family on vacation to Portugal during the Meivakantie (spring break) catastrophe, bobbing around in a boat on Amsterdam's canals on Koningsdag, attending a gala dinner in DC, etc. etc. is bad enough, even though he claims that he "could always be reached". This runway maintenance planning really takes the prize. Work that easily could and should have been done during the pandemic was not only postponed in true Dutch penny-pinching style, but then rescheduled for the busiest periods of this year. Surely there's a penalty for sheer bloody-minded idiocy? At least this once? Johan |
For those planning flights from Amsterdam airport this summer.
Rijksoverheid shows the dates for annual school holidays: https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/onderwe...ties-2021-2022 You can get an impression which weekends ( the actual start of the school sumner holidays) (per region) will become busy at Schiphol airport. Besides departures, don't forget about the expected increase at arrivals. So be warned! https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...1a09dac30.jpeg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...2a13b9be5.jpeg |

this Benschop clown should be booted out forthwith? By his same maintenance budget and logic the emergency [EJECT] button has also been made redundant |

It doesn't change the fact that using "Holland" to refer to the country is antiquated and incorrect. The official name is the Netherlands. |
