Book 24/7 throughout the Randstad and beyond, to Schiphol and back. Land back at Schiphol late in the evening or at night and the rail journey home to Kerkrade, with its late changes, is anything but swift. The taxi takes you home without fuss for the same €305, and the nocturnal hour costs nothing extra. Your flight is followed, so the pick-up time moves with delays; after landing you have an hour of free waiting time.

Your taxi from Kerkrade to Schiphol Airport

Kerkrade occupies the very south-eastern tip of Limburg, hard against German Herzogenrath, which makes the 224-kilometre run to Schiphol one of the longest journeys SchipholRide provides. The fixed total comes to €305 in Comfort (VW Passat or similar), €380 in Premium (Mercedes E-Class or similar), €395 for the Van seating 5-8 people (V-Class or similar) and €650 in VIP (S-Class or similar).

Travel time outside the rush: around 178 minutes, rising to roughly 232 when the roads seize. At such a distance one settled amount is worth its weight in gold: VAT, luggage and the parking at Schiphol are in, and no night tariff exists.

A driver at the door saves you a rail journey with several changes from this border corner. Up to 24 hours before pickup you cancel at no cost.

Your route and departure time

From Kerkrade the driver first threads via the N300 and past Heerlen to the A76, turning north onto the A2 at the Kerensheide or Het Vonderen interchange. From that point it is chiefly A2: endlessly straight past Eindhoven, 's-Hertogenbosch and Utrecht, until the bend towards Amsterdam follows at Oudenrijn or Holendrecht and the A4 to the terminal is reached via the A9 and Badhoevedorp.

Without hold-ups that takes around 178 minutes. The pain points on the A2 are well known: Eindhoven, Den Bosch and Utrecht can drive the rush-hour journey towards 232 minutes. For early flights the taxi therefore leaves amply before the morning crush, and the driver follows the traffic reports along the way.

So give your full address, and the driver can find a suitable pick-up point in Bleijerheide, Chevremont or one of the neighbourhoods right on the border. From there the route runs via the N300 and Heerlen to the A76 and the A2.

For a European flight at 07:00 you want to be at Schiphol by 05:00, 2 hours ahead, which means a pick-up at 01:45: about 178 minutes of off-peak driving plus 15 minutes of slack.

For an intercontinental flight at 19:00 you are inside 3 hours ahead, at 16:00, as Schiphol advises. The A2 past Eindhoven, Den Bosch and Utrecht can stretch the drive in the afternoon rush to about 232 minutes, nearly four hours.

The driver therefore comes at 11:50, with 15 minutes of slack, and follows the traffic information on the way. That way a jam near Utrecht still leaves you on time. From Eygelshoven, Haanrade or Kerkrade-West the same fixed fare of €305 in Comfort applies. The amount does not change with the hour; a night ride or a Sunday trip costs the same as a weekday afternoon.

Pickup in and around Kerkrade

Drivers collect right across Kerkrade: from Kerkrade-West and Chevremont to Bleijerheide, Eygelshoven and Haanrade, and the neighbourhoods flush against the border. One fixed price applies everywhere. Because the town is built against the hills, with steep and narrow streets, it helps to give your complete address when reserving; the driver then chooses a suitable boarding point.

From most spots the through road towards Heerlen and the A76 is quickly reached.

Pickup areas include

  • Kerkrade-West
  • Chevremont
  • Bleijerheide
  • Eygelshoven
  • Haanrade

Stations: Station Kerkrade Centrum, Station Eygelshoven Markt

Business pickups also available at: Bedrijventerrein Dentgenbach · Spekholzerheide. Enter your business address for a direct ride from the office to departures, with an invoice on request.

Travelling to or from an event? Around Rodahal you can book a door-to-door ride too, useful after the last train or bus has left.

“Excellent service for our trip from Schipol airport to Spijkenisse. Communication from the driver was excellent and we managed to arrange a earlier pick up based on his knowledge of how long the immigration queue would be. Very friendly, helpful and would highly recommend”

Frequently asked questions about this route

Fares & booking

Does the price also apply to Eygelshoven or Chevremont?

It does. Eygelshoven, Chevremont, Bleijerheide and Haanrade belong to the municipality of Kerkrade and pay the same €305 in Comfort as the centre. You are collected at home there; state your address at booking and the pick-up time is aligned with your departure.

Pickup & journey time

What is the tariff Kerkrade to Schiphol?

In Comfort you pay €305 as a fixed total, with VAT, luggage and the parking at Schiphol already inside. Premium comes to €380, the eight-seat Van to €395 and VIP to €650. Even across 224 kilometres that amount is settled in advance; queues on the A2 or a night ride take nothing away.

How long is the journey from Kerkrade to Schiphol?

Outside the rush you cover the 224 kilometres in about 178 minutes, just under three hours. Caught in the peak, queues on the A2 near Eindhoven, Den Bosch and Utrecht can stretch it to roughly 232 minutes. For early flights the driver deliberately departs before the morning crush so you check in on time.

Doesn't such a long ride from Kerkrade turn out expensive?

For 224 kilometres, €305 in Comfort is an all-in amount: no meter climbing, no separate parking or night charges. Share the ride with four or more people and the per-person price sinks towards that of the train plus its connections.

And for the very earliest flights it spares a journey with several changes.

Can someone be picked up along the way?

An interim stop is fine, for instance to collect a fellow traveller in Heerlen or somewhere along the A2. Pass the extra address on when booking so route and timing are adjusted to it. A small detour within the region usually leaves the fixed price alone; larger ones are agreed beforehand.

Can I travel on business from Dentgenbach or Spekholzerheide?

Yes, the driver collects you at your company on the Dentgenbach estate or in Spekholzerheide. Give the company name and entrance in your booking. You pay online when booking and receive an invoice with VAT for the business trip.

From Kerkrade, Premium in a Mercedes E-Class or similar costs €380 and VIP €650. Comfort is €305.

Passengers & return journeys

Kerkrade–Schiphol with a group, or after an event at the Rodahal?

With 5 to 8 people you book the Van, a Mercedes V-Class or similar, at €395 for the whole vehicle. VAT and luggage are covered, as are the Schiphol parking and drop-off costs. Any Kerkrade address can be your pick-up point, the Rodahal included.

Put the spot in the comments. Off-peak, allow about 178 minutes to the departures hall.

How do I get back to the hills of Kerkrade after an evening landing?

The driver tracks your flight live and adjusts the pick-up time to any delay. After landing the driver waits 60 minutes free of charge, enough for baggage and customs. You then ride home without changes via the A2 and A76, off-peak in about 178 minutes, and are dropped in your own street.

The late hour costs nothing extra: €305 in Comfort.
