From Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, a direct train departs to Utrecht Central Station every 15 minutes. Travel time is 30 minutes.
We advise you to buy your e-ticket in advance, this is easier and cheaper than buying a ticket at the vending machine. A single way ticket costs 9,50 (price level May 2020).
Note that a return ticket is only valid for travelling on the same day, so you will need to buy 2 separate one way tickets per travel date.
