What does and does not fly

No holiday flights yet

Lelystad Airport today handles business traffic and private flights, plus gliding and flying schools. There are no holiday flights. The cabinet decided on 30 January 2026 that they may come, and the minister is aiming for October 2027.

We mention it because there are taxi firms already advertising holiday flights from Lelystad today. Anyone booking on that basis arrives at a terminal where nothing departs.

What is there: the Aviodrome. That aviation museum sits on the grounds and makes a day out in itself — with a group in the van it is an ordinary ride for us.

Going on holiday? Then this year you are not leaving from Lelystad but from Schiphol or Eindhoven. Do call — we will find out where your flight actually departs from.

When the fare does not apply

A fixed fare belongs to a fixed ride. If the ride differs from that, we charge the actual kilometres — that is fairer than stretching a fare until it means nothing.

With a stop on the way
the route becomes longer than this fare covers; the booking form then works out the actual route.

Frequently asked questions

Can I fly on holiday from Lelystad?

Not at the moment. The cabinet decided on 30 January 2026 that Lelystad Airport may open to passenger flights, and the minister is aiming for October 2027. Until then only business and private flights depart. If you are going on holiday this year, that will be from Schiphol or Eindhoven.

Where do you set us down?

At the General Aviation Terminal, Arendweg 7. That is where passengers get in and out; the airport office is on the Emoeweg and you do not need to be there. If you are going to the Aviodrome, we drive up to the entrance.

Will you drive a group to the Aviodrome as well?

Yes. Eight people fit in the Mercedes V-Class. For more than eight we put on more than one vehicle; ask us for a price and they will travel together.

How long does the ride to Lelystad Airport take?

Eighty kilometres from Heemskerk, a good hour. The route runs along the A9 and the A6 past Almere. Around Amsterdam traffic can build up in the rush hour; we allow for that when setting the pickup time.

How do I pay?

With the driver, cash or debit card in the car. The amount is already fixed the moment you book, so nothing is added afterwards.

How many of us can travel?

Up to four people in a saloon or estate, five to eight in the van. Both amounts are in the table above; you choose how many are travelling when you book.

Is luggage included in the price?

Yes. Suitcases, a folding wheelchair or a pushchair come along at no extra cost. A child seat or baby seat costs € 12.50 per seat, per ride — choose how many when you book, and they will be ready. Bringing your own costs nothing.

When do I know the ride is confirmed?

Straight after you send it you get word that the request has arrived. We then check it and send the confirmation, usually within the hour. Only then is the ride confirmed. In a hurry? Call +31 251 74 32 23; we answer day and night.
