About This Route

Amsterdam charms with concentric canals, gabled houses, and bike-friendly streets dotted with major museums. Tulip season in spring is the postcard time to visit.

Amsterdam-Schiphol is well connected to New York, and the nonstop crossing runs about seven and a half hours. KLM and its partner Delta dominate the route, with United and JetBlue also flying it from JFK and Newark. To save, look at April, May or September, when fares ease relative to the tulip-season and summer peaks. The Netherlands is part of Schengen, and Schiphol's compact, single-terminal layout makes onward European connections straightforward. With a six-hour difference, plan for a morning arrival after an overnight hop. Comparing JFK and EWR pricing is smart, since both airports offer frequent Amsterdam departures.

Pro tip: Book 3-6 weeks in advance for the best deals. Tuesdays and Wednesdays are typically the cheapest days to fly on this route. Avoid traveling during peak periods like Thanksgiving, Christmas, and spring break for lower fares.
