How do I arrange a Schiphol pickup for a yacht captain and crew with sea bags?
Book Van Class: a Mercedes V-Class seats up to 7 crew with 7 bags for a fixed €125 from Schiphol to any Amsterdam address, VAT included, and larger crews travel in several cars on one plan. The chauffeur waits inside the arrivals hall with the vessel’s or the management company’s name on the sign, the flight is tracked, and the company that books receives every status update and the invoice.

Van Class back to Schiphol is €85. Feadship’s Amsterdam yard on the Basisweg is an Amsterdam address, so these fixed prices apply there too. Prices are per car, not per person, with 9% Dutch VAT included, and the same day and night. Booked less than 12 hours before pickup: +10%. At Schiphol the first 60 minutes of waiting are free, elsewhere 15 minutes; after that waiting is charged per minute at the class's hourly rate (Business €65 an hour). Free cancellation up to 1 hour before pickup.
How much a Van Class car takes
| Mercedes V-Class | Mercedes EQV (electric) | |
|---|---|---|
| Seats | 7 | 7 |
| Bags (class limit) | 7 | 6 |
| Luggage guide from our booking page | 12 × Carry-on or 8 × Standard check-in or 6 × Extra large check-in | — |
Sea bags and duffels vary in size; tell dispatch how many and how big, and we send the right number of cars.
Where crews usually go from Schiphol

What is included in the price
- Flight tracking from booking — a late connection moves the pickup, not the plan
- The vessel’s or company’s name on the iPad sign inside the arrivals hall
- Help loading bags; the car waits about two minutes away under cover in the Privium section of P1
- The first 60 minutes of waiting at Schiphol
- Status updates and the invoice to the management company or agent who booked
Crew arrival, step by step
- Send the crew list. Headcount, flight numbers, number of bags and the destination — hotel, yard or vessel.
- Cars matched to the load. Up to 7 people and 7 bags per Van Class; crews on different flights get separate pickups.
- Met inside arrivals. Sign with the vessel or company name; the chauffeur messages the crew contact around landing.
- Delivered where you need them. Hotel, yard gate or the marina address you give us.
