Johnson Fayiah, a 26-year-old passenger on the flight, was arrested and charged with attempting to smuggle the Class A drug and was remanded in custody at Antrim Court this week.
The three previous cocaine seizures all resulted in the arrest of Amsterdam passengers.
In October, a 56-year-old Dutch man was accused of smuggling £30,000 worth of the drug. Another Dutch national was arrested off a flight in early December and accused of importing £30,000 worth of cocaine.
A Londonderry man was arrested in mid-December after travelling back from Holland. He is accused of trying to bring more than £2,000 of the drug in.
John Whiting, the assistant director for criminal investigation in HM Revenue and Customs, said the seizures are one part of "protecting our communities from the violence and corruption that always accompanies the trade in illegal drugs".
