We did not check any luggage. Those checking luggage stood in a different line before they got into the back of the security line. The biggest issue is if you are originating in AMS or are you a transfer. Much easier to transfer. Be sure to allow plenty of time for that process.

We are wondering what to expect for the Security lines at the BCN airport? How long should we plan for those lines. We have carryon luggage. thank you.

We arrived by air yesterday. We flew in from AMS after a 5 day stay there. We are US citizens. We began in the US. We had everything filled out but no one asked for it.

We did not connect. We started in Portland OR five days earlier on Delta and then later continued on to Barcelona on KLM after a stay in AMS. You should not have to start from the beginning.

No we did not. We were flying on KLM to Barcelona after spending five days in AMS

We just flew out of Schipol to Barcelona yesterday and I can tell you our wait in the que was apx 3 hours to get us through Security. Be prepared to stand and stand! The line moves very slowly at times and sometimes stops. They were handing out cold bottles of water and popsicles!! Those that had to check luggage spent and additional 1.5 hrs in that line. They were missing flights and some barely made the flight. Be sure to arrive early. We were not allowed even to get into the area where the line began until about 4hrs ahead of time. Wear comfortable shoes!!

Lunastella… Is there any outside seating off of the Oceanview Cafe so that one could eat outdoors if it’s not too hot?

Brenda thank you. We are counting on being there as well and having drinks with both of you.

Just want to know in the event this happens after all you do just to get to the Port. We will be in Barcelona after dealing with a very busy long line standing event at Amsterdam Schipol Airport. Many folks in close range. Doing our own proctored tests.

Very much enjoying your review. You have a fun style of writing. We are on this same itinerary in two weeks. The Beyond looks beautiful. Trying to pack now as we are leaving home next Monday!!

If we can manage to get our clothes all in to roll aboard luggage for our cruise Can we go directly to the security line without having to stand in super long lines at Schipol since we are not checking luggage. We are flying to Barcelona on KLM. Will Security let you through earlier than 4hrs before your flight?

I’m reading rumors that the authorities in Barcelona are planning to move the cruise port further away from the city. I take it this has not happened yet. Anyone know when this is planned to happen. How far away. Heard that this is similar situation to the Venice cruise port situation.
