Travel Essentials
YYJ: PDT · AMS: CEST
When it's 6:00 PM in Victoria, it's 3:00 AM (next day) in Amsterdam.
Canadian passport holders enter the Netherlands and the Schengen area visa-free for up to 90 days within any 180-day period. ETIAS travel authorization will be required once the EU system launches. Passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond the planned departure from the Schengen zone. This applies to European Netherlands only; Aruba, Curacao, and the BES islands have separate entry rules.
Trains depart directly from inside the terminal (Schiphol Plaza) to Amsterdam Centraal every 10–15 minutes (15 min, €5.70). Direct intercity trains also serve Rotterdam, The Hague, Utrecht, and Eindhoven without requiring transfers. NS Hispeed connects to Brussels (1h 50m) and Paris CDG (3h 20m).
Taxis use a meter; Amsterdam Centraal costs €35–50. Ride-hail apps (Uber, Bolt) are cheaper at €25–40. Car rental agencies are at the terminal. Bus 397 to Leidseplein is the budget option (€5.50).
Temperate maritime climate, mild and frequently overcast year-round. Winters are cold (0–7°C) with regular rain and occasional snow or freezing fog. AMS handles de-icing efficiently but heavy snowfall (rare) causes cascading delays across the network. Fog is the primary winter disruption risk, particularly November through February.
Summers are warm (17–24°C) with long days and moderate rain. Thunderstorms in July–August cause brief but sharp delays. Strong crosswinds from the North Sea affect small aircraft year-round. Pack a waterproof layer regardless of season.
