X-mas at SPL

Post by Polecat »

Maybe a simple question for schiphol-regulars, but I reckon the X-mas days are quiter at SPL. But is it really calm and boring or just slightly less traffic?

normally the first X-mas day a lot of flights are cancelled. The second day there is some more traffic but still less then a normal day.

Sometimes you have a lucky catch but that is it.

Not only during X-mas, but the whole week and first days of the new year, lots of flights are cancelled.
