Schiphol increases port charges significantly: airline tickets become more expensive
Schiphol will increase airport charges by 37 percent over the next three years, making airline tickets more expensive. Airlines, which pass these costs on to passengers, will pay an average of 2027 euros extra per departing passenger from 15. Despite a voluntary contribution of 100 million euros by Schiphol itself, airlines are critical and are considering an appeal to the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets.
Where can I book a flight ticket for a Schengen visa?
Where can I best book a return ticket for the flight for my Thai girlfriend? Is that possible near the Dutch Embassy in Bangkok? I don't want to pay for the ticket yet, because I don't know if she will get the visa.
Qatar Airways increases number of flights to Schiphol this winter and with it the transfer options to Bangkok
From 12 November, Qatar Airways will increase its flight frequency to Schiphol to fourteen flights per week. This is an increase compared to the previously planned ten flights and is in response to the growing demand. The airline expects to transport around 40.000 extra passengers between Doha and Amsterdam this winter, using both Boeing 777s and Airbus A350s.
I see that Turkish Airlines has favorable rates for business class on the route from Amsterdam to Bangkok with a stopover. The transfer times are also favorable. Who has ever flown with Turkish airlines to Thailand, preferably in business class?
Flying cheap and saving on your trip to Thailand is possible if you are willing to put in some time. Pay attention not only to the cost of your flight ticket, but also to related expenses, such as parking costs at an airport and other matters.

Thailand Visa question No. 066/24: Thai Embassy The Hague – Tourist visa and flight ticket
If we apply for a 60-day single entry visa online, we can extend it for an additional 30 days. Only if we submit the 60-day visa application, can you show a ticket from Thailand with a departure date of 90 days after entry? Or should this departure date be 60 days?
“Political elite hints at exorbitant flight prices: who is still allowed to take to the air?”
Flying, once a luxury that became accessible to many, is now in danger of becoming a privilege of the wealthy. Political proposals suggest drastic increases in the flight tax, with the risk that the average citizen will be left behind. Will flying soon be a distant dream again for most of us?
TB Immigration Info Letter No. 140/23: Do I have to book an airplane ticket to apply for a Non-immigrant O visa?
Request NON O. Have read everything related to required documents. Question: do you already have to book a flight ticket together with your visa application?
Thailand Visa question No. 015/23: Tourist visa – what if return later than 60 days?
I booked 2 tickets for my Thai wife and me from 24/2/23 to 13/5/23. That's 77 days. Is it best to apply for a 60-day tourist visa and then extend it by 1 month before the end of the period? However, on the application forms I have to upload flight tickets and then they see that it is 77 days instead of max 60? Will that not cause me any problems?
Attention when booking a Thai VietjetAir ticket!
Thai VietjetAir operates a large number of domestic flights in Thailand. It is a budget airline like there are more in this country, but unlike most others, this airline does not have Don Mueang as its base, but Suvarnabhumi. This is a good thing for arriving and departing international travellers.
TB Immigration Info Letter 069/22: Requirements around the date of your return flight by airlines regarding a visa
With some regularity, people respond to this blog with questions about an airline's return date policy. I myself had a problem when I left in October with a return date in December. I only had 3 days left on visa. The EVA Air staff was not aware of the fact that if you enter the country before your (Non-immigrant O) visa expires, you will simply receive a 90-day stamp upon entry into the country. They apparently thought that your return date must be before the expiry date of the visa. After a lot of calling and nagging I was allowed to go.
Jan on his way to Thailand (readers' entry)
Finally the time has come, house sold and a few days in a Dutch hotel to finish some business. Long dreamed of going to live in Thailand with my girlfriend at the age of 65 in a small village 25 km below Udon Thani.
Schengen visa question: Do I have to buy a plane ticket for my Cambodian girlfriend?
Dear Rob/Editor, Short question regarding flight. My Cambodian girlfriend (who has been in Belgium for many years) will be returning to Belgium at the beginning of September with C-Visa/Short Stay 90 days. Soon (Monday 29/08) she will receive her visa from the French embassy in Phnom Penh. Now we are going to submit a marriage proposal in Belgium with all the necessary documents (legalized and translated and legalized), which is possible and the city is already aware. My question, should I…
In the requirements for a 90-day visa, I no longer see the embassy (Brussels) asking for a plane ticket. Has that been changed and correct or do you still have to submit it with the application?
New corona wave and plane ticket
Can you get stuck if you are in Thailand and a new corona wave breaks out? Do you need a special, much more expensive, flexible flight ticket in such a case, so that you can possibly change the date of the return flight? Or is it perhaps better and cheaper to take a one-way ticket, so that you are not tied to a return date in the event of a new outbreak?
I want to go to Thailand for 90 days in September. First on a 60-day E Visa and extend it for 30 days on the spot. Can I buy a 90 day in/out ticket in advance or does it have to be a 60 day ticket that runs concurrently with the first 60 day visa and then change if I can stay 30 days longer?
My question, if I have a ticket for 6 weeks, but no visa in the passport, will there be any problems at the EVA Air check-in counter? I want to apply for a visa in Phetchabun at immigration, so that I do not have an overstay. I'm flying from 29-10-2022 to 10-12-22, but EVA Air has to let me pass by at check-in, and also at passport control.
The Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) has rejected the complaints about the increased rates for airlines that Schiphol has set for the next three years.
Thousands of passengers have still not received a refund for their flight that was canceled due to corona. Especially foreign airlines and the so-called intermediaries who sell airline tickets do not pay out. This is evident from inquiries by BNR at three major claims organisations.
KLM is raising ticket prices for Thailand and other long-haul flights due to the sharp rise in oil prices, according to De Telegraaf. KLM will increase an economy class flight ticket by 40 euros. Travelers in business class have to pay 100 euros more.
I can't reach THAI Airways?
Have a ticket to BKK on January 29, 2022. Due to the abolition of the Test&Go program, I cannot fly. Now I want a voucher from Thai Airways or another date to fly. The two telephone numbers where you could reach Thai Airways are simply off! I don't get an answer to email.
