Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS) is the Netherlands’ main international hub and typically handles most intercontinental and European flights, served by full-service carriers like KLM and many global alliances alongside several low-cost airlines. It’s located about 17 km southwest of central Amsterdam; travel times to the city center are usually 15–25 minutes by train or 30–45 minutes by taxi, with train fares commonly in the low–mid range for regional services. Schiphol offers extensive transfer facilities and shopping but can be busy and occasionally hectic during peak hours; its convenience for connections is a clear advantage, while crowds and walking distances between gates can be drawbacks.
