TartanTon Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 There are no trains Saturday or Sunday from Schiphol to Amsterdam. Buses only and journey will take longer if anyone has any connections to catch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deedee Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 It's not taking that much longer. Bus to Sloterdijk then train onto Centraal. Roughly half an hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dundeelad88 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 www.suntrasfers.com can get 6 seater for £34 thinking taxi drivers might put prices up into centre knowing the trains are off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flure Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 It suggests here that there will be "limited" train services. http://www.prorail.nl/schiphol Looks like they are working on one track at a time and the other track will have to handle two-way traffic, cutting volume. Only overnights Sundays, Mondays and Tuesdays are there no trains at all because they'll close both lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jock strap Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Can you not just get the driver to meet you in the Limousine Mr Flure ? Can't ever imagine you having to ride in the peasant wagon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deecie Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Surely the limo is just there to take you from the jet to the chopper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
