◆5 sources
Extinction Rebellion protesters demonstrated beyond the security checkpoint in lounge 1 at Schiphol Airport against KLM's frequent-flyer programme. The Royal Netherlands Marechaussee arrested them for trespassing and took them away by bus. The Marechaussee initially reported 31 arrests, while Extinction Rebellion said 32 people had been detained. The group later said all those arrested had been released and taken by bus to the nearest station. It remains unclear what consequences the arrests will have.
