Schiphol International Airport is the largest airport in the Netherlands, the third in Europe (after London's Heathrow airport and Paris's Charles de Gaulle airport) and is also among the largest in the world. The airport handles over 63 million passengers yearly and this number continues to grow. Schiphol is located in the municipality of Haarlemmermeer and can be reached in less than an hour from other large cities, such as Utrecht, The Hague and Rotterdam, both by car and by public transport. The capital city of Amsterdam is 20 minutes away. The airport is often chosen as a location for national and international companies, but it is also an ideal location to rent meeting rooms and to organize conferences and events in one of the many business centres and business premises that are located here.
