Flights from California to the Netherlands: the best tips from KAYAK users

Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from California to the Netherlands 
LawrenceFlew with United AirlinesSFO-AMSJun 2024
Better stay up the night before tire yourself out before or you will have trouble sleeping on the plane, since you are taking off at 3pm local time but arriving around midnight origin time and morning at the destination.
DiamondFlew with DeltaLAX-AMSJan 2024
Put some media on your phone and iPad...the wifi worked on the way there but not the way home...its finicky (unless u pay for it). There aren't that many options for the player in front of you. Also bring your own headphones with the appropriate jack that can plug in, they may not have one for passengers for free. Food is good but they may run out of what you want.
