What are the best airports to travel to Amsterdam?

Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS)

Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is the main international airport in the Netherlands and one of the busiest airports in Europe, making it a premier choice for private flyers arriving and departing from Amsterdam.  It offers comprehensive facilities and services for private jet travellers, including dedicated fixed-base operators (FBOs). Private flyers can expect amenities such as executive lounges, VIP services, customs and immigration clearance, aircraft handling, and hangar facilities.

Rotterdam The Hague Airport (RTM)

Located around 40 miles southwest of Amsterdam, Rotterdam The Hague Airport (RTM) serves both Rotterdam and The Hague. Its convenient position between these two major cities makes it a popular choice for domestic and international flights, particularly for private jet travel. Although smaller than Schiphol and slightly further from Amsterdam’s city centre, RTM offers FBO services, customs clearance, aircraft handling, and executive lounges, making it a favored option for both business and leisure travellers.

Lelystad Airport (LEY)

Lelystad Airport (LEY) is a regional airport located in the Netherlands, specifically in the Flevoland province. It serves as a hub for general aviation, private flights, and smaller aircraft.
