Amsterdam and Amsterdam Airports
Amsterdam is a flourishing modern metropolis and the Netherlands’ capital, located just 50 miles from Germany, with numerous national and international links. Besides the airport, there are a multitude of hotels, restaurants, bars, theaters, clubs, cafes, shops, and coffee shops all over the city to enjoy. This might be one of the best ways to explore the city by train before going on to one of the other scenic routes.

Due to the high number of international flights coming and going, Centraal is already very busy with four terminals and over 7 million passengers passing through the airport each year.
Of course, it’s not just for business or pleasure In fact, a rail ticket directly to Centraal from Amsterdam Schiphol Airport may be purchased for as little as 4 euros.

The bus stops outside the main Amsterdam Airport, Amsterdam Airport Schiphol.

Lagos Airport
Lagos has become the hub of all flights to the USA. The United States was not always represented here by Middle Eastern airlines. Middle Eastern Airlines used to be their feeder airline to the Middle East.
It is high time this ceased. Every Lagosian, no matter how fat or wealthy, should desire American Airlines to fly to Lagos.
Allow the Lagos Central Airport to be used for regular flights to America.
After three years of staging for the Australian rugby team and then the Rugby Championships, Lagos does not have a single direct flight to America. What is the point of this insistence for the City of Lagos to be made a city of free trade?
Lagos does not need city status to be recognised as an international hub for business, especially when there is a gateway to get there.
Lagos does not require city status to be recognized as an international business centre, especially because it has a gateway.
Commercial service is required at every airport in the world. Without commercial flights, it is impossible to expect any business entity to invest in the city of Lagos to build a better airport. The airport needs to serve an international hub.
Go back to the 1950s when Lagos was declared a city. City fathers decided that the main road linking Lagos to the east and the south was to be a direct link to the city from the West. That road has not been made better since then.
The Lagos State Government must restore the Lagos-Ogun-Delta highway as quickly as possible so that it can serve both the north and south. Also, the highway cannot support commercial flights because of congestion in Lagos.
First Nigerian Airways served the Lagos Airport in the 1950s. It is what we called the Lagos-Kano-Ibadan route. But then, there was a specific port. Lagos now has two ports. Because Lagos has a deep water port, it has a significant edge over Singapore and Dubai.
As a result of their deep-water ports, Singapore and Dubai have been designated as hubs. But Dubai and Singapore are not making anything of it.
