Veel groen, meer kunst en zelfs speelplaatsen voor de kids: we werken hard aan de nieuwe A-pier. Dankzij de nieuwe pier stijgt de capaciteit op Schiphol, waardoor we meer vliegtuigen kunnen parkeren en afhandelen. In totaal komen er zeven nieuwe gates bij: aan de noordkant vier voor narrow-body vliegtuigen, aan de zuidkant drie voor wide-body vliegtuigen.
With a green focus we are working on a sustainable future for Schiphol
The new pier will be the most sustainable at Schiphol, thanks to design elements such as biomaterial, insulating glass, reusable plastic and marble rubblework tiles. In addition, there are 4000 square metres of solar panels on the roof and the toilets are flushed with captured rainwater.
Upon completion, the new pier will be 370 metres long, 40 metres wide and 20 metres high with a floor area of 57,500 square metres.
By equipping the seven new gates with MARS (Multiple Apron Ramp System), we can deploy them more efficiently and thus handle up to eleven aircraft simultaneously.
Passengers will soon be able to make use of thirteen security lanes. We are creating a separate lane for crews.
The project also involves the construction of two bus stations – one for transfer passengers and one for arriving passengers.
We are constructing four conservatories, each containing three trees. That way, we bring a bit of nature indoors.
BAM will start work in September. In the first phase of the project, we will be making plans together with BAM and determining the expected costs for the completion of the pier.

We are working hard on the pier. The facade exterior and the gatehouses are almost complete. Glass has been installed in the facade.

Building the new pier and terminal at Schiphol involves an awful lot of paperwork. Jeanine Mocking is the permits coordinator and ensures that everything is applied for and sorted on time.
