    IMHO one way to reassure people is to improve train service in Schipol, offer direct train trips to/from more European cities.

    Schipol act as a hub, a lot of people fly to Schipol just to take a connection and fly to another city.

    Many connection could be train-flight, rather than flight-flight.

      I’d like to see a direct connection Schiphol-Frankfurt. There is already a direct connection Schiphol-Paris, there should be air-rail tickets sold on this route just like there are Brussels-Schiphol

          And by then everyone else probably uses a different type of train magnetic super speed something and the Germans will still not have entirely figured out how electric power and rail work together.

          I spend a lot of time there and it’s amazing how bad people are at planning. There’s this fetish for rules and protocol, even when it’s entirely unpractical.
