| | Schiphol Airport (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22) |
 | | Located south of Amsterdam, Schiphol aims to be a European mainport, competing in passenger and cargo throughout with Heathrow International Airport in London, UK, Frankfurt International Airport in Frankfurt am Main, Germany and Charles de Gaulle International Airport in Roissy, France. |
 | | Because of the intense traffic at Schiphol, more and more holiday-carriers have moved some of their flights to smaller, nearby airports, such as Eelde, Rotterdam, Eindhoven Airport and Beek. |
 | | Thalys International operates a TGV rail service between Amsterdam, Schiphol, The Hague HS, Rotterdam, Berchem Rail Station (Antwerp), Midi Rail Station (Brussels) and Gare du Nord in Paris. |
