5 January, 2021

Royal Schiphol Group CEO Dick Benschop said (04-Jan-2021) he sees "light at the end of the tunnel" despite beginning 2021 in a "very difficult situation" with the extension of lockdowns in the Netherlands and mutation of the COVID-19 virus in Europe and abroad. He said that the government, supported by employer's organisation VNO-NCW, has been working to improve testing capacity in the Netherlands to once again make social activities possible, and also noted that vaccinations have started in the Netherlands in Jan-2021.
