    That's the same outbound flight I pointed out in my link in the previous post, just with a slightly earlier inbound, and £8 more expensive

    ha ha sorry...didnt click on the link....sound minds etc. Apologies.
  • Thanks to both of you! Thats quite a nice flight actually, both connections are pretty speedy. I'm probably booking it tonight so will let you know what I go for once I've had enough quick shop about.

    Yes, those KLM flights look good. For the sake of £8, I would take the earlier inbound as Schipol isn't a fun place for a tight connection.

    Depends what gate I guess, but sometimes 30 mins can be a push. The great thing about having all your flights with the same airline though, is you don't have to worry about boarding passes or luggage, you just get off of one plane and onto the next. I've made 35 with no problems before.

    What?! 35 connections in a row?!

    35mins transfer. Schipol is one of those places where I always have to cross everything I have that my luggage ill come out the other end.

    China Southern are alright though - watch your luggage allowance though - even in business KLM tried to charge us a fee for excess, despite the three of us totalling less than our allowance.

    Very odd behaviour out of Beijing
  • Thankyou all, decided to fly out of London City as it's closer and I've never flown from there before. Still changing at Amsterdam though. Was just over £500 once I'd been charged for paying on my credit card.
