  • Directions from airport:
    Train transport to and from Schiphol is convenient, simple and fast, with the Schiphol train station located directly below the main lobby of the airport. You can purchase domestic train tickets travel the yellow ticket machines near the platforms at Schiphol Plaza as well as from the ticket offices near the red/white-checked cube at Schiphol Plaza. All tickets, unless when asked for a non-dated ticket, are for use on the day of purchase. The average travel time to Amsterdam Central Station from Schiphol, or vice versa, is 15 minutes. Be sure that you indeed take a train bound for Amsterdam Central Station (Centraal Station, or CS), as other stops, such as Amsterdam Lelylaan, Amsterdam Sloterdijk, may sound similar. You will know when you have arrived at CS when you see historical church steeples and canals (e.g., the modern office park station is Sloterdijk). In theory, the conductors on all trains to and from Schiphol call out stations in Dutch, English and sometimes other languages.
