The Gateway

SHOW #2

Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam

Continuing on CNN, new series The Gateway delves beneath the public face of the world’s busiest transport hubs, documenting the day to day logistics of each location, the people who work there and the business of imports and exports, between and beyond borders. This month, the series travels to Schiphol Airport, the gateway to the Netherlands and transport hub that handles up to 110 aircraft per hour making it one of the highest concentrations in Europe and one of the world’s busiest airports. Host Becky Anderson (pictured) meets air traffic controllers, visits the world’s biggest flower market just a few miles from Schiphol and looks at what it takes to ensure that passengers and goods travelling through the airport do so seamlessly and efficiently. With unprecedented access to the people and places that make the airport tick, this month’s Gateway offers viewers a unique look at life at Schiphol.
