We disembarked Rotterdam in Amsterdam on Sunday and I agree that Schiphol is a bit of chaotic mess. It took us over an hour and a half to get us and our bags checked in, get through passport control, and security. The lines were insanely long. And then there was that VERY long walk to our departure gate. It was a very stressful experience. Anyone flying out of AMS should plan on arriving there a minimum of 3 hours in advance of their flight. 3.5 hours would be even better.

I am onboard Rotterdam, currently in Aarhus, Denmark, which is our last port on this 14 night Scandinavian cruise. We will disembark in Amsterdam on Sunday. There has been no talk of Covid on this cruise that I am aware of. The policy when we boarded on May 8th was that masks are recommended. Many people are not wearing them, but DH and I wear them all the time unless we’re sitting at a table by ourselves. We have an appointment for our Covid tests for reentry into the US tomorrow morning. My fingers are crossed that we test negative and can fly home as scheduled on Sunday.
