Shanker1 Posted March 17 #1 Share Posted March 17 We will be arriving in Rotterdam 6am. We are in a suite and will use private transport from Rotterdam to Schipol. I would like to book a 12:35PM to Paris. Is that cutting it to close? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jim_Iain Posted March 17 #4 Share Posted March 17 Really don't think you will have any problem. We were in a suite and when in Rotterdam - Walk off began at 7:00 AM and as a Suite Guest we were escorted to the Terminal when General Disembarkation began at 7:15. Since we arrived from an EC port there were no customs or immigration formalities. We were using a combination of Subway and Train and were at Schipol Airport before 9:00 AM. We had a 1PM flight to US and our BIL/SIL had a 11:00 AM to Glasgow. We both had plenty of time to check in, security and lots of time to waste.

Security there can be cumbersome, but I think you'll still be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogini06 Posted March 17 #6 Share Posted March 17 Have you considered the train? We took the Thayls high speed train from Rotterdam port to Paris last June. Quick cab ride from the port to the station. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerelmx Posted March 17 #7 Share Posted March 17 (edited) Celebrity transportation to Schiphol from Rotterdam it's recommended for flights after 11:30AM, you will be OK, also you can book a free timeslot for security https://www.schiphol.nl/en/page/timeslots/ Edited March 17 by gerelmx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanker1 Posted March 17 Author #8 Share Posted March 17 We are both very senior citizens. Handling luggage for trains is not a option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mtempelaar Posted March 17 #9 Share Posted March 17 Can I ask what the date will be that you are transferring? There is a rush hour there on weekdays, and if you are going during the weekend of Kings Day, a car could be problematic. Drive is 40 minutes on a weekend, weekday could be double (so says my Dutch hubby). if it were us, we would be taking the Thalys high speed train from Rotterdam Centraal direct to Paris Gare du Nord but I do understand your issue.
