The holiday season has begun and you can tell: it's complete chaos at Schiphol. Yep, the tents are already set up outside and the lines are piling up. Totally frustrating, because there's nothing more annoying than starting your well-deserved vacation with hours of waiting until you get through security and having to keep in mind that you might need to be at Schiphol four to five hours in advance and still stress that you might miss your flight.

Fortunately, Schiphol has now found a kind of solution: you can book your own time slot online. You can do this for free online starting three days before departure, so you have your own time slot for when you can go through security. It's important that you really stick to the time slot, because if you're too early or too late, you won't get in and will still have to stand in that long line.

So here's today's tip: book that slot for free online via the Schiphol website, then you'll head to the airport much more relaxed and the enjoyment of your vacation can start right away. Bon voyage!
