Apparently they are so short of staff that they have reduced the number of movements per hour, hence the cancellation of flights by KLM.

They already did but they clearly still can’t handle the amount of movements currently happening.
 
I am travelling to AMS for my plane spotting day trip on the day of the Kings coronation (Saturday 6th May) Yeah I know, it is quite controversial going on this day, however it was a choice of either watching a grown up man given a crown on his head and listening to a load of stuff I just cannot connect with (aka religion) or doing something I can connect with (aka plane spotting) and plane spotting won.

However I am only in AMS for 4 hours so will I make it to the roof top terrace or will I be spending my time getting through arrivals/passport control, loooooooooooooooooooooooool

I will let you all know how I get on.

I might watch some of the highlights from the Kings coronation on the various catch ups when I get back, ha
 
Hopefully they won’t win against their plan to ban private aircraft movements from 2025 also.
 
I know where you mean. Do you have to go through security too get there?
 


The Dutch High Court has now ruled in favour of the government meaning that potentially from as early as next year flights could be limited to 440k vs the current maximum of 500k.

With KLM handling about 80% of Air France-KLM flights between the UK and CDG & AMS, I wonder if we may see that split shift more equally.

Of the 17 UK airports that KLM serves, Air France serves just 5, so could we see Air France launch some more CDG to UK routes...
 
The Dutch government completely collapsed yesterday and is to resign en mass to the King over immigration issues causing a general election probably in September. The current government is/was a coalition of four separate parties so forming a new one will probably take time and who knows what or any effect on potential flight restrictions it may have.
 
Had a great time yesterday planespotting at Amsterdam Airport. I used the Panorama Terrace which does give some good views of part of the airport. Not so good for takeoffs and landing shots but still great to get so close to the aircraft! Amsterdam has some really good variety of airlines including dedicated cargo ones as well!

Thanks! There's more on the media section!

That's what inspired me to go, it was a place i'd thought about doing previously but never got around to it. Trying to restart my hobby after a hiatus. The trip reminded me how much i love travelling and watching planes.
