Why Amsterdam Airport Is So Busy (Even With little Population)

Amsterdam Schiphol Airport is among the busiest airport in the world, but the city that it is in, Amsterdam is not even in the top 10 most populated cities in Europe, yet the airport manage to have millions of passengers every year competing with massive cities like London and Paris.

Used to fly via AMS and its a great airport for traveling. This video has a few misses. First Netherlands is in Schengen and many people outside Amsterdam will go to other countries to fly such as Brussels. Next as part of KLM is their partnership with Delta airlines. Delta has turned Amsterdam into a massive hub and has flights to Amsterdam throughout the US. Given its geography Amsterdam is a great connecting airport for North American travelers going to Europe, Africa, and even certain parts of Asia.

[@AndreGerritzen]

Fun Fact für Schiphol and KLM: The king of the netherland has a commercial pilot licence and he flies minimum twice a month as a copilot the keep his licence. So when you are flying with KLM from or to schiphol there is a chance the king is in the cockpit. :-)

[@andrewgc19881]

What's also important is you can get a train from most of the country which terminate at the airport. You can't really do that in the UK.

Schipol and Paris are also used as transit airports by UK passengers from airports that are too close to London to have flights to London such as Cardiff, Bristol, Southampton and Norwich.

Amsterdam really serves the whole randstad region (and you can argue the whole country) since Schiphol has flights the other airports in NL doesn’t. Btw the randstad region is 9 million people and includes Rotterdam. It’s about the same land area as the London metro but has more farm land seperating the urban areas.

[@VV-mq6cq]

Exactly. De Randstad is a metropolitan area which covers (most of) the western part of the country. For the rest of the country, it depends which airport is closer. It’s sometimes more convenient to either travel to Brussels or the airports near Düsseldorf or Cologne/Bonn. The video makes it sound like Amsterdam is The Hub for The Netherlands and that’s simply not true for various reasons.

[@strafrag1]

People in the Netherlands don't fly domestically. They take the train.

I fly KLM a lot and it always strikes me how many passengers are non-Dutch transit passengers. Many Scandinavians travel within Europe with KLM over Schiphol airport Same for British and East Europeans. And obviously the inter continental travelers to literally ALL continents. When a plane is delayed the crew always announces the transit passengers' connecting flights and gates. That's when I notice the diversity of passengers on board.

I went to Europe on a trip in high school. We flew into Gatwick, south of London. I had no idea it existed until I got there. A few days in London, then by bus to Paris and then on to Amsterdam. So all three cities. And we flew out of Schiphol. Amsterdam is great! It has a real small town, countryside feel. Another thing you overlooked is the days of the Dutch Empire. All of the Dutch colonies around the world led to the start of KLM. And of course, the VOC. The Dutch East India company. And Royal Dutch Shell. For a "small country" the Netherlands has a worldwide presence. Like France and Britain and (UGH!) America. Here where I live on the East Coast of Canada there was a KLM ticket office. Amsterdam to Toronto and the return flight was Toronto-Halifax-Amsterdam. To load seafood on the return was the story. It was like that for a few years but they closed the KLM office here.

London Heathrow runs at full capacity, so if there's any kind of weather problems the delays get really bad, something to consider if you're connecting there from Scotland.

It’s a true shame that the government wants Schiphol to shrink and lose its current position while the countries around us move on and grow their airports. One thing I’d like to mention about the video is that there’s 3 other airports in the country with international flights of which one is in the north (Groningen, Eindhoven, Rotterdam, Maastricht). They do have flights outside Europe too (Turkey, Morocco etc). The difference with Schiphol is that they don’t have long haul flights :)

[@johniii8147]

Yeah shrinking the traffic at AMS doesn't really make sense.

[@georghuppertz5727]

You can shrink Schiphol if you take out the many flights to Paris, Brussels, Luxembourg, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, etc. These flights mere exist to fill other planes and are perfectly replaceable by a train.

[@szabopal85]

​@georghuppertz5727 as a flight traveler I am not sure I would like to travel by train instead of plane to catch another flight.... if there is a delay with the train I would miss the second flight without any compensation, if the first flight is delayed the airline simply rebook my second flight, i do not want the inconviniences of carrying 3 luggage from train station to airport, stress about waiting time at luggage drop off and securitiy check lines at an airport I do not know well etc etc.... i do agree that trains should replace flights everywhere where it is reasonable but combining longer train trips with flights can work only if the train trip is also covered by the same airline as the flight before/ after to achieve similar level of comfort and I do not think that this will happen anytime soon

Not everything you said in this video is correct. The Netherlands has 5 commercial airport which serve passenger aircraft. One of them is actually in Groningen/Drenthe, called Groningen Eelde Airport. But since Amsterdam Schiphol has most intercontinental flights for the Netherlands, it serves as the intercontinental hub. All the other airports do have international flights (not domestic flights as you had called them) to other destinations in Europe, mainly served by low-budget airlines such as Transavia, Ryanair and Easyjet, but also by charter airlines such as TUI and Corendon.

The map doesn’t show all the London airports, Heathrow, Gatwick, City, Stanstead and Luton. That’s a significant factor in the South East of England. However as many long distance flights go from Heathrow thats often the option for many UK travelers. But Heathrow has poor public transport access. There’s no direct access by rail other than from the capital. And that is what Schiphol gets right with its rail connections. And that why people outside of London often connect on KLM City Hopper to Schiphol. It’s quicker and cheaper than UK rail. Much as i like the single terminal concept at Schiphol there has to be limitations to its growth. There is already a lack of gates with many short haul KLM flights going from the Fokker Farm. Although KLM manage it reasonably well, it’s hardly ideal.

So many things wrong in this video. Saying that there are no commercial airports in the north (waving at you Groningen Eelde) or further south (hello Maastricht Aachen Airport) is BS. Apart from that, a lot of people in the east and south travel to airports on the other side of the border because of good and direct connections (Weeze, Düsseldorf, Bonn-Cologne, Brussels and Brussels South) so they don't use Schiphol in the first place. Next to that the most important thing is missing; the reason why Schiphol is so busy is because of it's role in the intercontinantal hub-and-spoke principle thanks to mainly KLM and the partnerships it has struck in the past decades. This has made Schiphol a major base for flights in and out of Europe to other continents and therefor it is a huge transit airport. About 35-45% of the annual passenger numbers (71M) are having a transfer on Schiphol, so don't go in or out from the Netherlands. And that is what makes Schiphol such a major airport compared to it's humble location.
