Multiple Daily Flights
BA runs more than 8 flights a day to Amsterdam from two London airports. That kind of frequency means you can pick a departure that fits your schedule, whether it's an early start or an evening hop across the North Sea.
Quick Flight Time
At just over an hour in the air, it's barely enough time to finish a coffee and a magazine. London to Amsterdam is one of Europe's shortest international routes, and BA makes it effortless.
Two London Airports
You can fly from Heathrow Terminal 5 or Gatwick South Terminal. Having both options is useful depending on where you live or work in the London area.
Onboard Service
Even on this short flight, BA serves a complimentary snack and drink in Euro Traveller. Club Europe passengers get a proper meal with drinks from the bar.
Wi-Fi Available
Most BA short-haul aircraft now offer Wi-Fi for purchase. On a flight this short, a quick messaging pack is usually enough.
Seatback Power
USB charging ports are available on newer A320neo aircraft, so you can keep your phone topped up during the flight.
Avios Earning
This route earns Avios through the BA Executive Club. Amsterdam falls in Distance Band 1, making it one of the most affordable Avios redemptions in the network.
Smooth Connections at Schiphol
Amsterdam Schiphol is a single-terminal airport with excellent rail links to the city centre. You can be in central Amsterdam within 20 minutes of clearing arrivals.
London Heathrow (LHR)
At least 5 direct flights daily to Amsterdam Schiphol, departing from Terminal 5. This is one of BA's busiest short-haul routes from Heathrow, with departures spread across the day.
London Gatwick (LGW)
Around 3 direct flights per day from the South Terminal, operated by BA EuroFlyer. A solid option if you're based in South London or Surrey.
Euro Traveller (Economy)
1 checked bag at 23 kg per passenger (included with Plus, Semi-Flex, and Fully-Flex fares; not included with Basic fares)
1 cabin bag up to 23 kg (56 x 45 x 25 cm) and 1 personal item (40 x 30 x 15 cm)
Club Europe (Business)
2 checked bags at up to 32 kg each
1 cabin bag up to 23 kg and 1 personal item, plus priority boarding and lounge access
Infant Baggage
Infants travelling without their own seat are allowed 1 checked bag at 23 kg (not included on Basic fares). A fully collapsible pushchair or car seat can also be checked free of charge.
Sports Equipment
Sports equipment, musical instruments, and other large items may require advance notice and are subject to additional charges. These are assessed based on their size and the route.
Baggage
Additional baggage charges apply if you exceed your allowance. Pre-purchasing extra baggage online is cheaper than paying at the airport. Charges vary depending on the route and fare type.
Cheapest Months to Fly
January and February are typically the cheapest months for BA flights to Amsterdam. November is also good value. Avoid the spring tulip season (April to May) if you're watching the budget.
Peak Travel Periods to Avoid
King's Day (27 April), Easter, summer holidays, and the Christmas period see the highest fares. Amsterdam is popular year-round, but summer weekends are the priciest.
When to Book for the Best Prices
For the best fares, try booking 4 to 8 weeks ahead. This route is so frequent that last-minute availability is decent, but prices tend to spike closer to departure.
Sales & Promotions
BA regularly includes Amsterdam in its sale promotions, especially during the January sale and Black Friday events. Weekend break deals with BA Holidays can be good value.
Price Alerts & Deal Tracking
Track fares via BA.com or through a travel agent. Tuesday and Wednesday departures are usually the cheapest days to fly this route.
