Direct Amsterdam – Tbilisi flights: what you should know
Besides Georgian Airways, the Dutch low-cost carrier Transavia also flies nonstop between Amsterdam and Tbilisi. It opened the route in 2024 and operates it seasonally, several times a week. In other words, on this route you are choosing between two nonstop operators, so it is worth comparing both schedules and fares before you book.
Because schedules on seasonal routes change from year to year, always double-check the flight days and times at the moment of booking.
Distance and flight time
- Distance between Amsterdam and Tbilisi: roughly 3,200 kilometres.
- Nonstop flight: about 4 hours and 30-50 minutes.
- Connecting flight: from 7 to 15 hours or more, depending on the length of the layover.
Keep the time difference in mind as well: Georgia is 2 hours ahead of Amsterdam in summer and 3 hours ahead in winter. The arrival time on your ticket is given in local Tbilisi time, which is why it is further from the departure time than the actual flight duration.
The airports: Schiphol and Tbilisi International
Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS) is one of the busiest airports in Europe. It consists of a single large terminal divided into several departure halls. Queues at security can be long in peak season, so it is better to arrive at least 2.5-3 hours before departure. Schiphol has a direct train link to central Amsterdam, and the journey takes about 15-20 minutes.
Tbilisi International Airport (TBS) is roughly 17 kilometres from the city centre. To reach the centre you can take city bus No. 337, which runs via Liberty Square and Rustaveli Avenue, or a taxi – the ride normally takes 20-30 minutes.
Baggage: what to pay attention to
Both low-cost and full-service airlines serve this route, and their baggage rules differ considerably:
- The cheapest low-cost fares often include only a small cabin bag; checked baggage and a larger cabin bag are charged separately.
- Full-service airlines normally include checked baggage in their economy fares.
- Adding baggage at the airport is almost always more expensive than adding it when you book or during online check-in.
- On a connecting flight, check whether your baggage is tagged through to the final destination or whether you have to collect and re-check it at the transfer airport.
When are tickets cheaper?
Demand on the Amsterdam – Tbilisi route peaks in summer (June to September) and over the New Year holidays, and that is exactly when tickets cost the most. Late autumn and the end of winter are comparatively cheap. If your dates are flexible, compare departures a few days earlier or later as well – the difference is often significant.
Visas and documents
Citizens of the European Union, including the Netherlands, do not need a visa to enter Georgia and may stay in the country for an extended visit. Georgian citizens travelling home from the Netherlands need no additional documents beyond a valid passport.
In any case, before you travel, check:
- the validity of your passport;
- the transit rules of the country you connect through (Turkey, for example), if you plan to leave the airport during your layover;
- the terms of your travel insurance.
