I think it’s like Las Vegas and open container laws. It’s a city ordinance that weed is allowed not a national one. And an airport is a national asset even if it is in Amsterdam.
It’s not a city ordinance at all but it is however quite complicated and lots of “grey areas”, the stuff is basically illegal up until the point it magically appears in the coffeeshop, and then it’s illegal over 5g. In any case traveling with it internationally is a big no-no even if it’s between two destinations where it’s legal. This is all very silly of course, hopefully with Germany going legal we’re finally gonna start seeing some progress on the topic, if daddy Germany is ok with it the rest will likely follow.
well, what else do you expect if you take weed through an airport.
B-B-But it was “my security guy’s weed!!! We told them!”.
I take weed through airports all the time. I’m pretty surprised Amsterdam of all places gives a shit.

It’s really not as big deal. Nobody is going after it these days.
This story speaks very much to the contrary.
This story is an anecdote. As the person below says, it was the quantity that was at issue here.
