Texas to Amsterdam to Copenhagen to board ship

[debintexas]

We booked Princess air & there's a very short time from landing in Amsterdam until the flight to Copenhagen. Will we have to go through customs in either city or they both part of Schengen? Thanks in advance--so much helpful information on this site!

Hi Deb,

I have no answers for you--- but we need to book airfare this week and I would also like to know :confused:

I have not flown your itinerary, but IIRC last time we flew to Europe we did an immigration check after our first leg. If you do not get a more confident answer here, you may want to post on the cruise air forum...there are many more experienced flyers there.

Immigration will most likely be in Amsterdam because both Holland and Denmark are Schengen countries.

What does your travel agent tell you?

Denmark is indeed also a Schengen country. Which means you will go through passportcontrol in Amsterdam (since this is your 1st stop in a Schengencountry), but customs will be done in Copenhagen.

Often there will be a special section at Amsterdam Airport for passengers with shortconnections.

Your luggage will be labeled all the way to Copenhagen and you donot need to take care of that in Amsterdam.

We always go through passport control in Amsterdam when we connect. Fortunately, there was a short connections line (which I don't know why every airport doesn't have) and it went very quickly. Security in Amsterdam is at the gate.

Hi,

We also have a short 1 hour 40 minute connection in AMS in late June. Our Itinerary is ATL-AMS-CPH on Delta / KLM. This information has been helpful and a bit reassuring. I have heard it is a very long walk from the International terminal to the connecting flight. Luckily there are several later flights to CPH in case we do miss our connection. Glad to hear that there is a short connections line at passport control.

In the past we experienced a missed connection at CDG which was not a pleasant experience so this time we are routed through AMS hoping for better luck.

Will be interested in others experiences connecting through AMS.
