As Dutchie this is the first time of hearing this. Seeing how it’s designed it will probably not happen though.

I find it consistently appalling how people buy/rent housing near airports and then complain about the noise. A good example is the Denver Airport which was built 17 miles east of Denver. Now there are hundreds of homes and hotels near the airport. I think anyone who buys a house near an airport should have to sign an agreement to NOT complain about the noise, which has dramatically decreased over the last few decades. Of course, if this airport in built in the North Sea, having housing nearby will be nearly impossible.

This is not even a 'plan'. It's pure fantasy.

Netherlands is a kingdom

I live 3km from the schiphol and never had issues with noise or pollution. Its just like a background sound your are used to. It are mostly young families buying houses in new nearby ares who are complaining.

Didn't the Dutch King graduate with a degree in History at Leiden university rather than get a Master's in water management?

Note: There is a small error between 00:01 and 14:47, this small error being that there are no official proposals and/or suggestions made for a new airport. There are no plans or talks about moving the airport. Schiphol will not be moving in the coming decades.

One mstake: the king, Willem Alexander doesn't have a degree in watermanagement. Willem Alexander is a historian (he holds the drs title) and he studied watermanagement. He has no degree in that area (it would have required another 4 years of college) and is not an engineer.

I live next to the airport, in fact I live on the Kaag runway for landings and takeoffs and have not issues with the Airport.. Sure at times its noisy but not all of the time

its already been done with Kansai International Airport in Osaka, Japan! it was an engineering marvel until a problem arises when they found out it is sinking 2 cms. every year! Now the engineers are on a dilemma have to solve this clear and present danger on that said airport.

I am dutch. Never heard of this plan let alone as a concrete plan. But i have been thinking for a long time why not the airport in the sea and using the free space left for great new city planning.

This is actually an interesting option since Schiphol's capacity is stagnating, but the demand is still rising. As a mega-hub of KLM, it would make sense to extend or exchange its infrastructure this way, considering the lack of space to grow on land, noise complaints, and corresponding housing issues. It could potentially, at some point, completely change its hub location as is happening with Dubai international airport changing to Al Maktoum international, a mega hub for Emirates in example.

One issue with Schiphol is that the region does not have a prevailing wind direction. There is a need for a north-south and east-west runway, each some 5 km long. This would make the island rather large and it would have an enormous impact on water currents in the North Sea... not to mention shipping lanes. Also Schiphol has presently 5 main runways (and an aux. one), three north-south and two east-west. Usually one is in service for landing and one for take-offs (depending on wind direction and trying to limit noise in residential areas). On busy days, airplanes line up at 1 to 2 mins intervals for most of the day... For any Schiphol replacement to allow growth of air-traffic, the Island airport would have to have at least four main runways, probably five or six. The circular runway is a nice idea but would require lots of technical en regulatory work. And considering the number of planes, it would need two circular runways at least. It can be done, but the cost estimate will be on the low end... I'd say its more of a 100 billion Euros project. It will be much easier and cheaper to activate existing plans to use the "Outer Schiphol" airport, named Lelystad. Some 50 kms to the east in an agricultural area. It would need way better infrastructure like airport facilities, a railway station etc. Sure, there are tens of thousands of people living in the flight paths, but not 1.3 million.

When I think beyond all limits, you can go a step Furter. If the Nord Sea airport is more located to the southwest, it is logical that this airport gets a connection with Great Brittan. So, this Nord Sea airport is not only an airport of the Netherlands but also of VK. Isn’t that amazing? And it also gives an alternative of the Eurotunnel from Calais to Dover. The location of Nord Sea airport should be between Rotterdam and The Hague on the one site and the Felixstowe at the other site. The main goal of this airport should be long-distance flight, with highspeed train connection with London, Birmingham, Manchester, Amsterdam, Berlin, and Northern Europe.

Hi there, I just wanna say I am absolutely stumped as I lived right next to Schiphol for the majority of my life and I must say you really get used to the noise. At my old place we had a plane fly over at least once every 7-10 minutes and at some point you barely even hear them anymore... I'm sure I'll comment once or twice more if I see something I recognize! Stay awesome man and thank you for unknowingly making my day with this!❤❤❤ Edit: this video topic alone earned you at least one new subscriber. 😊 Edit2: now that I watched the whole video it would have actually been lovely if I hadn't had to get used to the noise... And brother do we need more houses. A lot of young people who wanna move out can't do this because the houses are way too expensive 🫰🏽

I trust the Dutch in doing it the right way for sure.

I love the sound of airplanes

I live here and this is not true AT ALL. Shiphol airport is under a renovation and this project proposal is just bullshit.

The plan for the replacing airport in the Northsea is decades old and wil not be realised because of the costs!

Big mistake from the creator of this video. The airport is not owned by the city of Amsterdam. Royal Schiphol Group N.V. ownes multiple airports in the Netherlands. It is 69,77% owned by the Dutch government, 20,03% by the city of Amsterdam and 2,2% by the city of Rotterdam. If Schiphol airport would move to sea, then land of previous Schiphol airport would be free to use to the local government of Haarlemmermeer, where Schiphol airport is located. There would be no direct benefit for the city of Amsterdam. Amsterdam is only added to the name to make it more recognizable for international travellers. For almost 100 years the name Amsterdam did not appear in the official name

I’m Dutch and I have never heard about this

This is a great idea

Have you ever been to the old Amsterdam airport?

I would love to live near an airport, lie by the pool and watch the planes land all day. Ahhhh.

Could you show the sources you used to create this video? I can't seem to find any news articles referencing this project, which is surprising considering how expensive it is. It may be because articles referencing it in Dutch, but you'd think that there would at least be 1 reliable article in English...

great concept, a circled runway. that saves a lot of space

I think it’s a good idea, but it’s too ‘perfect’ to work out. If they would do a airport on the northsea I think they would need to go all the way, like a boat or train to multiple places in the uk (because schiphol is already a place where people transfer a lot)

There always will be a problem of noise it never-ending even if they made far away from shores, they would kill coral or even sea life ,also there will be an ongoing cost to maintain the island its not a solution , making it on a land would be better with finding solution for the same problem without creating new challenges with island, for example make huge state of art sound barriers and many solutions could put into test.

I live in Amsterdam southeast just 2 stop with The train from SCHIPHOL🇳🇱

Turkish tulp please

It makes sense

This idea has been moved away from years ago and never came past the 'idea' stage. It is not happening, The designs used are unofficial concepts.

Imagine deciding to live near to a very large airport or under one of its approach / departure routes.....and then complaining about the noise!

I live under a route to Schiphol airport, i see all the planes from Ireland, The UK and North/South America fly over. If this gonna happen, there will be no planes fly over my house wich i will be sad of. On the other hand there will be more room for building houses.

If they directly update their Windows system…..

With the increasing use of digital meeting and communications and decline of hub and spoke airline model, I doubt we need another airport. We aren't even going to use the already finished airport in Lelystad.

One of the suggestions I want to make is that there is multiple miss match in the script and the video 4:16

I wonder if this project will ever be done???

6:21 sheephole airport?🤔😂😂😂

Nice video ⚘️ thankyou

Well...its gonna wreck employment in the local region. The airport in its current location provides a decent amount of jobs to people living in close proximity. Unemployment is gonna skyrocket...

The Netherlands is not a 'Dutch Republic' as shown in your presentation, but a Kingdom

This sounds ridiculous, the north sea is famous for vile, strong and unpredictable winds. Building an airport right in the middle of it is a stupid idea, not to mention the insane amount of soil needed at such depths. All of our waterworks are at much shallower depths, this includes the Tweede Maasvlakte harbor extension mentioned in the video.

I live next 2 schiphol and my mum works there XD

Lawdy… who’s gunna tell KZfaq ain’t no body care about ‘em ads right at beginning at every single video? lol

Didn’t they learn from Kansai or Kobe airport

How old is this plan?

I am Dutch, and this is at most an idea, definitely not a plan, so the video is somewhat misleading.

More than 20 years a go was the same idear all ready so it is to late

I live here. No such project exists. Completetely fake video. Don’t understand who would put energy into such thing.

1:24 Dutch REPUBLIC??

Can they stop building these airports ON water? Especially since we all know water levels are rising???

Have a look at schiphol airport

Er zijn mensen die er net onder schiphol wonen om vervolgens schade vergoeding eisen

I hear a lot of terms used in greenwashing environmentally destructive projects.

that's never going to happen lol, only some MPs of the FvD mentioned it last year

The idea to built a new international airport in the Northsea is very old. I think it will happen one day, because Schiphol cant grow anymore, and the already bought airports in Flevoland for example are failed (for now)

This is clearly an ai, the method of storytelling and language used is boring and repetitive. Nevertheless, interesting to watch

This will likely never be built tho

If you make a video about a topic try to properly pronounce the names of places you're talking about this just sounds funny and unprofessional...

I recon this video is purely AI generated. Never heard of these plans, a lot of footage is not from Schiphol or the Netherlands. As another commenter said; Pure fantasy. And when, oh when can they get the pronunciation right ! Oh.. yes its AI as well.

Wished you wouldn't say SHEphol /SHEEPhol or KanZai. Let's learn how say them correctly.

Will never be built lol

Japan did it first

Not gonna happen….to expensive…and if they say 46billion it’s gonna be 92billion…

Is this the largest airport in Amsterdam ?

I advise strongly that you first learn how to speak Dutch words BEFORE making a video. It is hilarious now and does take the quality of the video down.

Stupid projekt to the gabage can.. The noise from turbofan jet engines has been constantly decreasing over the last 50 years

Osaka airport is sinking into the sea😂😂😂

Yep, this channel is proof the multiverse is real. Can KZfaq please remove these AI based channels? This is totally not a topic over here. Maybe do another topic on which mountain is trully the largest or which country is trully the smallest. Base your topics on facts dude. Not randomly generated AI topics. Use your own brain!

Is it a joke? A foolish project. It must be scrapped immediately. The location in question is entry to Ijmuiden, The North Sea Canal and the Port of Amsterdam. It is the 4th busiest port in Europe by total cargo tonnage The draining of Markermeer was politically dropped in 2003. It was planned that part of Markerwaard was to be used for a relief airport. The noise from turbofan jet engines has decreased continuously over the last 50 years and will continue to do so for the next 50 years. Schiphol is conveniently and centrally located close to the customers. Motorways, roads and railways are built close to and under Schiphol. Many companies within many industries are located in and around Schiphol. All the customers and all the employees have to commute much longer = negative economic and environmental social interest. The construction site itself outside the North Sea and the demolition and removal of the existing airport will cause a huge additional emission of CO2. Roads and railways must be built through national parks out by the North Sea. The wind farms that have been built out in the North Sea must be removed again, even if they have only been there for a few years. They have cost billions of € to build.

Misguiding low effort video.. this is just not whats really happening, we wont see these ever

nonsense video😂😂😂
