Amsterdam Schiphol has unveiled its largest investment plan amounting to €6bn to be implemented between 2024 and 2029.
The investment will focus on renewing and maintaining facilities such as Pier C, climate-control systems, escalators, aircraft stands, and taxiways at the airport.
The delayed Pier A is now scheduled to open in April 2027, featuring eight narrowbody and widebody gates, security filters, border control facilities, and retail and F&B outlets over three floors.
Despite reporting 31.8m passengers in the first half of 2024, an 11pc increase from the same period in 2023, Schiphol is still below the 34.5m passengers welcomed in the first half of 2019. New CEO, Pieter van Oord, expressed the importance of infrastructure investments to enhance passenger satisfaction, service quality, noise reduction, and employee working conditions at the airport.
