Schiphol question

I've seen some reviews online talking about what a crowded mess Schiphol airport can be. I'm flying out of there noonish on a Sunday mid-August. In everyone's experience, is getting there three hours early enough?

I think it is. IMHO Schiphol is the best airport in Europe from which I can fly to Seattle directly. The others are De Gaulle, Heathrow, Frankfurt and well Reykjavik - but is hard to get there from Prague (where I usually fly to).

Without any chauvinism: Schiphol can be busy, but is very well organised. Check-in and luggage drop-off are DIY, but with plenty of personnel around to assist you if necessary. Those three hours are enough.

Three hours should give you plenty of time.

Agree....Schiphol is one of the best. Three hours is good.
