My apologies, I am sure I have posted this before, but have searched and can't find it!!!!!!
My son is flying from BHX to Hato via Amsterdam with KLM this Friday. Does anyone know which terminal he will arrive at from BHX, what terminal he will depart from in Amsterdam, the time involved getting between the two places, and will his luggage be checked straight through??
Again, sorry if this has been answered, but I can't remember where I posted in the first place
please click here.
Hopefully someone will be able to answer your more specific questions about Amsterdam Airport here in this thread.

Hi Sue .. the only previous post I can find in relation to this flight was about Air Passenger Duty .. Hopefully someone will be able to answer your more specific questions about Amsterdam Airport here in this thread.

Walking distance will be determined by where the parking gates of inbound and outbound flights are, however on arrival at AMS you follow "transit passengers"signs and there are many signs and television screens advising passengers of where to go to get their connecting flight.
KLM also advise (sometimes) on the flight from UK to AMS what gate to go to (and zone) for onward connections therefore your son could actually ask on board the flight from BHX if it is possible to advise him on the departure gate for onward flight but only if the time is a tight connection (ie around 1 hour).
KLM will at BHX check baggage all the way through to final destination.

Thanks very much Nivsy for the quick reply And thanks David for finding my original post
Well he is away, and up in the sky safely, so thanks for the instructions In fact he has been in almost constant contact with me since 5.00 a.m. (did he think I might not be asleep!) and I feel I know as much about schiphol airport as I will ever need to
Where on earth is Hato ?
Sorry, Hato is the airport for Curacao in the Netherlands Antilles.
Glad to hear he arived safe and sound. Ask him for a report on KLM long haul!!!
I certainly will, he doesn't come back till 29th March though!
Please be aware that if he buys any duty free drink in Hato he will NOT be allowed to take it with him from AMS to BHX as security will confiscate it (or make him drink it all!). If he is bringing anything home from there, make sure he puts it (well wrapped) in his checked-in luggage and not carry it as hand luggage as their restrictions on liquids etc in AMS are the same as ours.
Cheers,
Jet
Thanks jetnoise, I will hopefully get that info to him!!!!!
