Sustainable Transport Amsterdam Schiphol : Bigger, Greener, and Ready to Roll

If you’ve ever parked at Amsterdam Schiphol’s P3 Long-Term Parking, you know the drill: squeeze onto a shuttle bus, clutch your bags, and hope your seatmate doesn’t ask for directions in Dutch. Well, good news, folks—Schiphol has upgraded your shuttle game with spacious new electric buses that are as green as they are roomy.

Say Goodbye to Diesel Drama

Out with the old and noisy diesel models, and in with the 18-meter zero-emission electric beasts, courtesy of Arriva Touring. These buses are charged primarily by solar panels on top of the P3 parking garage, so you can finally brag about riding a bus powered by the sun.

What’s New?
  • Sustainability That Shines: These buses don’t just sip solar power—they guzzle it. And if the sun’s playing shy, Schiphol throws in some extra green electricity to keep things rolling.
  • Room to Breathe: With 18 meters of space, there’s plenty of room for you, your luggage, and maybe even that duty-free bag of Gouda.
  • 24/7 Service: No changes to the schedule, which means you’ll have a ride to your terminal at all hours—because who doesn’t love a 3 a.m. flight?
A Team Effort

This eco-friendly upgrade is a joint venture between Schiphol and Arriva Touring. Schiphol’s in charge of the solar-powered charging infrastructure, while Arriva brought in the Solaris-manufactured buses. It’s like the dream team of sustainable mobility.

Why You’ll Love It

Not only are these buses better for the planet, but they’re also better for you. No more crowded aisles or awkward shoulder-bag collisions during peak travel times. And let’s be honest, there’s something satisfying about gliding to your terminal in an 18-meter solar-powered chariot.
