Taxi Dronten to Schiphol

From the Dronten quarters it first goes over the broad Educalaan or the Wisentweg to the N305, the through connection towards Biddinghuizen and Lelystad. At Lelystad-Zuid the car joins the A6 and the long straight stretch over the polder begins: past Almere Buiten, Almere Stad and Almere Poort, over the Hollandse Brug to the Muiderberg interchange.

There the route switches to the A1 towards Amsterdam, at the Diemen interchange to the A9 and through the Gaasperdammertunnel past Ouderkerk and Amstelveen. The Badhoevedorp interchange gives the A4 and immediately after the exit to the terminal.

Those 84 kilometres cost about 75 minutes outside the congestion. The bottleneck lies predictably between Almere and the Hollandse Brug, where all the commuter traffic towards Het Gooi converges; in the morning peak the journey rises to a good 108 minutes.

If the A6 is jammed solid, there's a detour via the N302 and the A27 at Almere Haven, longer in kilometres but sometimes shorter in minutes.

The pick-up area spans the whole municipality: the De Gilden, De Munten, De Boeg and Het Palet quarters in Dronten itself, plus Swifterbant and Biddinghuizen. Addresses by the Aeres university of applied sciences or on the edge of the Wisentbos are no problem either.

Dronten station on the Hanzelijn lies centrally, but whoever wants to reach the airport by train changes in Lelystad or Amsterdam and lugs the luggage along. A car that stops at the door spares that hassle entirely.

Note the full home address when reserving; in the new-build on the south side, street names sometimes strongly resemble each other.

Travelling to or from an event? Around De Meerpaal, Walibi Holland (Biddinghuizen) you can book a door-to-door ride too, useful after the last train or bus has left.
