Questions from people who book at Schiphol more than once
I book here every couple of weeks. Does anything get simpler?
The messages get shorter, because the thread already holds your usual address, length and name. The rules stay the same: each visit is agreed on its own, and every booking at Schiphol is confirmed by half the fee in advance.
Can I set up a standing booking for every Tuesday?
No. Each visit is agreed separately, because each therapist decides each booking separately. Regulars simply write at the start of each week once their schedule is certain, and the reply usually comes back within minutes.
How long does it take to reach a room at Schiphol?
That is agreed in the thread before anything is fixed, because the journey depends on the hour and on where she sets out from. In central Amsterdam, arrival is forty to sixty minutes from a confirmed booking.
Do you cover the business district at Schiphol-Oost and Schiphol-Rijk?
Yes, by arrangement, like the rest of Schiphol. Give the address in the first message and the journey time is agreed before the booking is confirmed.
Is Schiphol more expensive than the city?
No. The rates are the same: 180 euros for one hour with one guest, 270 for ninety minutes, 360 for two hours, 540 for three and 1,250 for the eight hour block. Nothing is added for the journey or the hour.
Why is a deposit always taken at Schiphol, even for regulars?
Because every Schiphol booking commits a therapist to a longer journey, and that rule applies to every guest equally. Half the fee goes ahead once the hour is agreed, and the remaining half is paid on arrival.
Is there any booking where no deposit is taken?
One: a returning guest asking for one or two hours later the same day, at an address in central Amsterdam. That booking is paid in full on arrival. Anything at Schiphol, longer, further ahead or on a peak date takes a deposit.
How is the deposit paid?
By card, Revolut, Wise or cryptocurrency. Bank transfer and PayPal are not used, and cash cannot be a deposit. The exact amount and details appear in the thread after the booking is agreed.
What happens if my flight or schedule changes?
Cancel more than twenty-four hours ahead and the whole deposit comes back. You can also move a booking once, free, to a date within fourteen days, if you ask more than twenty-four hours ahead. The terms set out the rest.
What if I cancel on the day?
Inside the final twenty-four hours, before she sets out, half the deposit is kept and half returns. Once she is on her way, the deposit is kept, unless the hour is taken by another booking, in which case it is repaid.
I work on a crew rotation. Can I book at odd hours?
Yes. Give the start time in Amsterdam time, not the time your body is keeping. Bookings at any hour of the night are ordinary, and the rate does not change.
Can I ask for the therapist I saw last time?
Yes. Start the message with her name. If she is free, the booking is agreed; if not, the reply says so and offers another hour with her or another name.
Can my partner join me for the last night?
Yes. A couple with one therapist is 360 euros an hour, and with a therapist each it is 720. Both guests must be twenty-one or over.
What does the house need from me?
An address, an hour, a length and a name or a line about the evening. Never a passport number, a photo of a document or your employer's name.
Does she come up to the room?
Yes, as any visitor does. If your hotel asks visitors to be met in the lobby, say so in the message and she will follow that.
Are the rates the same on a peak date?
Yes. The figures do not change, though a peak date such as King's Day or a large conference week always requires a deposit.
My meeting moved and I need to cancel tonight's ninety minutes at Schiphol-Rijk. What does it cost?
Ninety minutes for one guest is EUR 270, so the deposit was EUR 135. A cancellation sent today, inside the final twenty-four hours but before she has left, keeps EUR 67.50 as fee already earned and returns EUR 67.50. Sent yesterday, with more than a day to go, it would have returned all EUR 135. Sent after she has set off, the whole EUR 135 is kept as fee earned, unless the evening goes to another client, in which case all of it is returned. If you can show the loss was smaller than the part kept, only that smaller figure is kept. Moving the booking instead, with more than a day's notice, to a date within fourteen days costs nothing.
I have booked with the house every week for months. Why do I still pay a deposit at my airport hotel?
Because a room at Schiphol, in the business district or at an airport hotel is one of the seven kinds of booking that always carry half in advance, whatever the history. Each one is arranged on its own, with the journey time agreed with you before anything is fixed. For two hours at EUR 360, EUR 180 goes ahead by card, or by Revolut, Wise or cryptocurrency, and EUR 180 is paid at the door. The booking paid wholly on arrival is a returning guest's same-day hour or two at an address in central Amsterdam.
An early report came up and I ended a two hour session after one hour. Is the second hour refunded?
No. A session ended early, by either side and for any reason, stays payable for the time reserved. Both hours were reserved for you, she travelled out to reach you, and by that point in the evening the second hour cannot go to another guest. Beyond the fee for the reserved time, nothing further is asked. If you know before she sets out that one hour is enough, say so in the thread, and the booking simply becomes an hour at EUR 180.
I have booked with her many times. Does she still decide what the session includes?
Yes, every time. However many visits have gone before, she states her limits at the start of this one in her own words, and they hold until she leaves. She may decline any booking, before it reaches her or after, without giving a reason, and she may end any visit whenever she chooses. If a limit she has named is pushed, the visit ends on the spot; the fee for the reserved time stands and nothing more is added. The terms put this in formal wording.
She knows me by now. Might she still ask for identification?
She might, and familiarity does not change that. The guest who books and anyone else in the room must be twenty-one or over, so a photo document may be requested at the door on any visit. She looks at it once and gives it straight back; it is never copied, scanned or photographed, and nothing from it is written down. If she is not satisfied that everyone present is twenty-one or over, she leaves without starting the session. The age statement covers this in full.

Most of these came from the second or third message someone sent, once the novelty had gone and the practical questions were left. They are answered here the same way they are answered in the thread.
