I went through AMS as a pax a few weeks back, I will at all cost avoid that airport in the future.
The amount of noise in AMS airport is unbearable, no matter were you go, there is badly tuned TV monitors sending out static noise mixed with CNN, the rolling walkway is constantly blasting "mind your step" at about 100 db's and the intercom system is constantly sending out useless messenges at an unbearable loud sound level.
Sorry AMS, but you must be cheating to get those best airport awards.
