I'd forget it on the way there but with the extra 30mins on the way back it is possible to get into AMS and have a short visit to a coffeeshop such as Central or Voyagers provided things go your way.
You'll need to keep an eye on the time and of course hurry off the plane and out of the airport to the train. If you can be on the train to AMS in less than 30mins after arrival you are on target.
Once in town, hurry again to Voyagers/central, purchase drink, hash/weed cake and a gram of the best stuff you can smell then roll up, drink, smoke and eat. Buy another slice or 2 for the journey back then it is time to go back, again on the train. This bit should take no more than 20mins.
Allow 1 hour to get from the Centraal station to your gate. I generally do it in less but it is nice to have a buffer.
You must be ready to go from the train to the gate without stopping. No left luggage, no checking baggage, no printing of boarding passes. There is no time for any of that.
You can eat your cake on the train or on the plane itself. Never had any problems with weed cake. Just take it out of the wrapper first!
The return leg of your journey will 'fly' by!
Good luck and if anything goes wrong and you take too long getting on the train. Abort and stay at the airport. If you ride the train and it takes too long getting into town you can always go straight back.
A fun little mission but certainly not worth missing your plane for so be cautious.

That does sound a little implausible....? It would be a story for the grandkids though lol.....assuming it's legal by then....probably not :-/
thats what i wa trying to saydude65 wrote:Not implausible at all. It's not like the red cubes are inside the plane or anything.
The idea would be for you to walk out of the airport's security zone, meet gapie, step outside to smoke a few joints and share a few laughs, and then go through security again and hop onto your plane.
Not implausible at all
I only know it is possible because I've done it myself. Also that was before Voyagers so I went down Harlaamstraat which is further away from the station. I had 2 1/2 hours to complete the 'mission' and it was a success.Dimon wrote:This reminds me of a movie ' Mission Impossible " very rich in technical details and well plannedtreetop wrote:jhartsho wrote:Hi all, I live in the US and am taking a course in Tovetorp, Sweden in 3 weeks.
