The Panorama Terrace and Fokker Experience - See the planes up close

The panoramic terrace is the perfect place to go plane-spotting. From here, you have a great view of the planes in the C, D and E piers. You can also see out over Aalsmeerbaan and Oostbaan. There are also telescopes that you can use to see the planes up-close, so bring 50 cents or 1 euro. Entrance is free.

Sit in the pilot's seat

You can see an authentic Fokker 100 KLM Cityhopper plane on the Panorama Terrace. You can get unique insights into the cockpit and hear reports from the control tower, which will make you feel like a real pilot. Check the baggage hold and learn about the history of the Fokker aircraft. Entrance is free.

Building a sustainable future

The Panorama Terrace has two small wind turbines and a few solar panels. A dashboard shows how much energy has been generated by both sources. Royal Schiphol Group is building a more sustainable future. The wind turbines and solar panels are a playful way to show this to the public.
