I agree that CDG is very bad for Transfers, AMS is a great airport, i can't believe anybody would say a word bad about it
My nemesis is BKK, its one hell of a struggle in and out. Took us 2 hours to get the short distance from the aircraft to the back door, and back in again took forever with all the fussing around we did, going through countless security checks, checkin desks, everything. It really did **** me off
