Public transport from Amsterdam Airport to Passenger Terminal Amsterdam: is there a bus, train or metro?

Public transport from Amsterdam Airport runs mainly into Amsterdam itself: trains run from Schiphol to Centraal in 15-20 minutes and are excellent for a light traveller; a canal-house hotel with stairs, a family with luggage or a day trip to Giethoorn is simpler with a car at the door. Reaching Passenger Terminal Amsterdam from there means a further connection with your luggage, which is where a door-to-door car saves the most time and effort.

Many of our guests have tried the public route into Passenger Terminal Amsterdam once and booked the car ever after. The difference is not only speed but effort: no ticket machines in a foreign language, no stairs with suitcases, no working out the last mile to the hotel. A private Amsterdam Airport to Passenger Terminal Amsterdam transfer starts at the arrivals door and ends at the reception desk, and the fixed price covers the whole vehicle.

About Passenger Terminal Amsterdam

Passenger Terminal Amsterdam (PTA) is on the IJ waterfront at Piet Heinkade, just east of Amsterdam Centraal, about 20 km north-east of Schiphol Airport. Passenger Terminal Amsterdam is the city's cruise terminal, a long building with a distinctive wave-shaped roof on the southern bank of the IJ. Ships berth right on the edge of the city centre, so passengers step off almost into Amsterdam: Centraal Station is a short walk west, and the Muziekgebouw concert hall, the Oosterdok, the NEMO science museum and the canal ring are all close by. Trams run along Piet Heinkade in front of the terminal. The drive from Schiphol follows the ring road and then the waterfront through the modern Eastern Docklands.

If you choose flight tracking, your driver is at arrivals the minute you land.

Why travellers choose Haqqi Tours for Passenger Terminal Amsterdam transfers

Haqqi Tours is a travel company, not a taxi app: the people who confirm your Amsterdam Airport to Passenger Terminal Amsterdam transfer are the same people you can message at midnight when the flight is late. The price is fixed and written down, the driver is a licensed professional who does this road regularly, the vehicle is what we said it would be, and if anything on the day is not as promised, one message to the desk puts it right.

Pickup options and waiting time

When you book on WhatsApp, you choose one of two pickup options for your arrival:

• Flight tracking: your driver is at arrivals the minute your flight lands and waits for up to 60 minutes. If your flight lands at 2:00 pm, the driver is there at 2:00 pm.
• Fixed time (no tracking): your driver arrives at a time you choose and waits for up to 60 minutes from that time. Send us your flight number and we check its real landing times over the past 10 days to recommend the best pickup time.

At most airports the included waiting time is 60 minutes; at some it is 90 minutes. We confirm the exact waiting time for your airport when you book with us on WhatsApp. After that, the driver cannot wait longer: the fixed price is based on one hour of airport parking and the driver's time, and with more than 30 transfers a day, every booking is scheduled back to back.

With flight tracking, normal delays are covered. If your flight is delayed by more than 5 hours, we cannot guarantee a new pickup at the last minute, because the new arrival time is uncertain and other transfers are already scheduled. Message us as soon as the delay is announced: we always do our best to rearrange, but it depends on the number of bookings that day. With a fixed-time pickup, the time slot is reserved for you and cannot be changed on the day, even if your flight is delayed or something unexpected happens.

Two hours before your flight lands, we send you your driver's name and phone number on WhatsApp. If you are still in the air, the message will be waiting for you as soon as you switch on your phone. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
