Schiphol CEO quits over Amsterdam airport chaos
AMSTERDAM’S Schiphol airport chief executive Dick Benschop announced on Thursday (Sep 15) he was stepping down following months of continual chaos at one of Europe’s largest transport hubs, plagued by long queues and baggage handling issues.

“I am making room on my own initiative to give Schiphol the space to make a new start,” he said. AFP
