braxx20 Posted October 12, 2013 #1 Share Posted October 12, 2013 How far is it from the port to the airport and what charges might we find? Many flights to US leave in AM and wonder if we can get off ship in time to catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re train: know you have to put your luggagew into and from the train yourself. During rushhours trains will be very busy. Stay with your luggage at all times,watch all your belongings, pickpockers love trainrides too. Try to do your checkin for the airline the night before to save time.

huntersyaya Posted November 8, 2013 #5 Share Posted November 8, 2013 We took the train. It was so simple and FAST! (And we both had two pieces of luggage but no problems at all) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye 6 Posted November 19, 2013 #6 Share Posted November 19, 2013 we also used the train. From the port you walk uphill over a bridge and a cab to the train station would be a good idea if you don't want to pull luggage. We are in our 60s and were able to do it with a couple stops. Pretend you are just looking at the scenery. The train is very easy to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ine Posted November 28, 2013 #9 Share Posted November 28, 2013 any recomendations for transfers from Ijmuiden port to Amsterdam airport? Since cabs will be expensive for this ride, your best choice probably is the shipstransfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iamthesea Posted December 2, 2013 #11 Share Posted December 2, 2013 We have an early flight and need a fast efficient way to transfer. Are there any car services that can carry 4-8 passengers, plus luggage? I would think the ship's transfer would be expensive. I assume there is one airport and one cruise port? We are sailing Celebrity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ine Posted December 2, 2013 #12 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Send this taxi company an email with your request: http://www.tcataxi.nl/en/home.html\ or this one: http://www.schiphol.nl/Travellers/ToFromSchiphol/SchipholTravelTaxi.htm Taxis in general take 4 persons (and not that much luggage) so you need a bigger one.

Ine Posted December 3, 2013 #14 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Although it did work with me, another try http://www.schiphol.nl/Travellers/ToFromSchiphol/SchipholTravelTaxi.htm or you can go to the website of Schiphol airport, http://www.schiphol.nl/index_en.html and go to the link to and from Schiphol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
