Can confirm. I used to fly from City to Schiphol on a regular basis, the reality is a 2-3 hour journey on each end once you factor in travel to the airport (even from Docklands), hanging about, security (and this was before 9/11), late flights, and then just getting out of Schiphol into a taxi to start your journey to the financial centre. Amsterdam being "just an hour away" is a complete myth, much like any other flying for business in Europe.
