Thanks everyone for your assistance and helpful advice. In the end. I booked a taxi. Five years ago, I would have taken one of your suggestions. But age and physical condition made me take the safe, if expensive, option of a taxi. At least my return flight is not on a strike day.
I am due to arrive in Schiphol Airport at 16:20 on Tuesday next, 10 June. I need to get to Den Haag, either Centraal or Laan van NOI. The revised timetable has now been issued by NS. Apart from the Eurocity to Brussels, getting off at Rotterdam, travelling by public transport will involve at...
Thank you so much for this advice. I contacted a young, computer literate relative and he advised me to do as you suggested. He also told me how to do it.
The worst thing is the worry and stress these criminals engender in old people like me. In future, I will use my iPad for booking flights etc.
My laptop runs Window 10 and has all the latest updates installed. It gets minimal usage and is turned on infrequently. I only use it for booking flights, hotels and restaurants as my elderly eyes cannot see clearly on a small phone screen. I do not visit dodgy sites and in over twenty years...
Thank you for clarifying the situation. We prefer to travel from Den Haag Centraal as it is the train's origin station and we are guaranteed two seats together. We arrive early, get a cappuccino, board the train and relax while drinking our coffee. As we only travel to Amsterdam to visit the...
Tomorrow, 20 June, two of us wish to travel from Den Haag Centraal to Amsterdam Centraal. We are going to the exhibition at the Van Gogh museum. According to the NS journey planner, there are no longer any direct trains after 09:49 which is too early for us. Looking at future dates, this change...
Condolences to all the injured and relatives and friends of the deceased. I am due to travel to Den Haag Centraal this afternoon and am presently in Dublin airport awaiting my flight to Schiphol. It's a terrible shock.
Apologies for a non-rail related question, but presumably then large stores, Albert Heijn say, that do not currently accept foreign debit cards will do so in the future. Is there any word on the timescale of when this will happen and is there an expectation that small independent retailers will...
The two of us live outside the UK. We are visiting a friend in Doncaster on Wednesday 17 August and spending the night in a hotel there. We booked a flexible rate with the hotel and can cancel without cost.
The following day, Thursday 18 August, we are travelling on a LNER train to Leeds...
Coincidentally, or otherwise, within hours of posting on this forum, the pending charge of £10 to RST London has disappeared from my debit card account.
I live in Ireland and am entitled to a Staff Travel card. There is now a charge of £10 for posting it overseas. I phoned RST on 12 May to pay the charge. I was informed that payment could not be taken over the phone, but I would be sent an email containing details of how to pay by credit or...
Talk about one hand not knowing what the other hand is doing! I was given the above information by RST on the phone this morning. This afternoon, I received an e-mail from RST inviting me to register an account at RST Online to enable me to buy priv discounted tickets online. It contained a one...
