How long is a direct flight from Amsterdam to London? +

Direct flights take 1h 15m–1h 25m. Prevailing westerly winds make this leg marginally slower than London→Amsterdam. LCY and LHR approaches are fastest from Schiphol thanks to direct routing over the North Sea.

Dutch passport holders can visit the UK visa-free for up to 6 months (tourism, business, study up to 30 days). From January 2025 an ETA (Electronic Travel Authorisation) is required — apply online, cost £10, valid 2 years with multiple entries. See gov.uk/eta.

How do I get from London airports into the city? +

LHR: Elizabeth line £12.80 (40m to Paddington/Liverpool St), Heathrow Express £25 (15m). LGW: Gatwick Express £19.80 (30m to Victoria), Thameslink £12 (35m). STN: Stansted Express £23 (47m to Liverpool St). LTN: Luton DART + Thameslink £17 (45m to St Pancras). LCY: DLR £3.60 (22m to Bank).

Can I fly business class Amsterdam to London? +

Yes — KLM Business (Schiphol Crown Lounge access, excellent for long-haul connections) and BA Club Europe both operate AMS–LHR. Worth it only for the lounge access, especially if you're connecting onwards; the 75-minute flight gives you no real time to enjoy the cabin.
