Practical tips for AMS.
Four arrivals halls under one roof
Arrivals Halls 1, 2, 3, and 4 each serve different airlines. Confirm which hall the client is exiting before driving.
Schiphol Plaza for longer waits
Schiphol Plaza connects all four halls and the train station. Cafés and benches make it the natural waiting area when flights are delayed.
P1 short-stay is closest
P1 short-stay car park is a 2-3 minute covered walk to any arrivals hall. Avoid the kerbside set-down, which moves traffic quickly.
