Free WiFi at Schiphol Airport

How to connect to free WiFi at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, how long a session lasts, and where to charge your devices.

Is there free WiFi at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol?

Yes. Schiphol offers free WiFi across the whole terminal, landside and airside, with no data cap (checked September 2026). Select the network named Schiphol_Free_Wi-Fi, open a browser page and accept the terms on the landing page. If the login page does not appear, type any non-secure web address into the address bar to trigger it.

  • Network name: Schiphol_Free_Wi-Fi.
  • Each session lasts 4 hours; simply reconnect for another one.
  • No registration fee and no data limit.
  • Coverage includes Schiphol Plaza, all lounges and piers, and the train station.

How fast is the airport WiFi, and where can I charge?

Speeds are fine for messaging, browsing, video calls and streaming, though they drop at very busy gates. For heavy uploads or a long video call, sit near a pier wall rather than in the middle of a crowded lounge.

Charging points are built into many seats in the departure lounges and piers, and there are power tables and USB sockets around the food courts and Holland Boulevard. Sockets are the standard European two-pin type, so bring an adapter if you carry a UK or US plug.

Is the free WiFi safe to use?

It is an open public network, so treat it like any airport hotspot: avoid online banking or entering card details without a VPN, keep your device firewall on, and make sure you join the exact network name. Schiphol will never ask for a password or payment on the login page.

Tips for staying connected at Schiphol

  • Download boarding passes and maps before you land in case the login page is slow.
  • If the connection stalls, forget the network and join again to reset the session.
  • Use a VPN for anything sensitive on the open network.
  • The KLM app and Schiphol app work fully on the free WiFi.
  • eSIM data is a good backup if you need a reliable connection in the piers.
