Most flights from Xiamen to the Netherlands connect via Singapore Changi Airport, which is close to the city centre and offers a free transit tour for eligible layovers. For shorter connections, you can stay airside to enjoy themed gardens, rest areas, children’s play zones, and a wide range of dining and shopping. For longer layovers, consider joining a transit tour or unwinding at an airport hotel or lounge. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Xiamen follows China Standard Time (UTC+8). The Netherlands uses Central European Time (UTC+1) in winter and Central European Summer Time (UTC+2) from late March to late October. This means Amsterdam is typically 7 hours behind Xiamen in winter and 6 hours behind in summer.
