Busy at Schiphol today: take delays and cancellations into account

It is very busy at Schiphol today. Staffing levels at security today are lower than what Schiphol had requested of the security companies. As a result, there is a shortage of security personnel and the number of waiting travellers is increasing, especially in Departures 3. Schiphol has asked several airlines to cancel some flights today between 16:00 and 23:00.

Employees in the terminal are doing everything they can to ensure that everyone can travel today, but unfortunately there is a chance that travellers will miss their flight due to long waiting times. We regret the situation that has arisen and understands the disappointment and frustration that it may entail.
