Schiphol Airport API

API

Official API for Schiphol Airport's flight & logistics data

Overview

The Schiphol Airport API provides real-time and historical data for Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, including flight arrivals/departures, aircraft movements, airline details, terminal/gate information, and airport facility data. It uses RESTful endpoints with JSON responses. Key endpoints include /flights (filterable by date, airline, or destination), /airlines (metadata), /terminals (layouts), and /gates (availability). Ideal for travel apps (live tracking), logistics optimization, or passenger planning tools. Authentication requires an API key, with rate limits on free tiers and paid plans for production access.

script.js JS


fetch('https://developer.schiphol.nl/')
  .then(res => res.json())
