Conference Programme The Network Planning Society

In 2020 the 6th edition of the Network Planning Society, hosted by the Route & Business Development team of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol took place in Utrecht. An inspiring two-day event, where we updated and informed our airlines about the latest updates at AMS, with plenty of networking opportunities. Location for this year’s edition was the city of Utrecht. Part of the social programme was dinner with all delegates in a typical Dutch venue. See the Event Highlights for a impression of this NPS edition!
