Re: DMZ Amsterdam - 5 Days Off
Anyone from Belgium going? How?
Thalys is expensive...
Damn wish one of my friends had a car, hopefully one of them will have one then.

Re: DMZ Amsterdam - 5 Days Off
We're probably going for weekend amsterdam, saturdaynight with joy orbison etc looks nice too..
And if we go will be with car, we're living in ostend.. car is gonna be much cheaper then public transport, trains are dirty expensive in holland ..

Re: DMZ Amsterdam - 5 Days Off
Parking in amsterdam is pretty expensive and it eventually takes longer than with the train
40-45euro back and forth (think from ... - antwerpen included) It's always from antwerp to amsterdam centraal, every hour
edit: normal train he not the thalys, with thalys you're there 15min faster and 50eur poorer

Didn't know there was a direct one to Amsterdam. At least, the routeplanner on the b-rail site didn't show one.. Only thalys.poepsnor wrote:Parking in amsterdam is pretty expensive and it eventually takes longer than with the train

Travel time by train from Brussels is 2:45 though, which is actually longer than going by car.

And 40-45 is a decent price. If you're going by car with 3 people, you would pay 40-45 per person for gas prices too.
EDIT: Do you know where I can check the prices? B-Rail only shows prices for national traffic.
EDIT2: Nevermind found it, apparantly you need to go to the NMBS Europe site.

Re: DMZ Amsterdam - 5 Days Off
No way Antwerp/Amsterdam is 40/45. I've traveled for about that price from Enschede to Antwerp and back, and Enschede's on the other side of the country.NilsFG wrote:Didn't know there was a direct one to Amsterdam.

Though I do know that international travel by train has increased with like 7 euros last year in Belgium.

Re: DMZ Amsterdam - 5 Days Off
tickets all booked up, apparently you have to buy a one month membership for 3.50 euros when you get the ticket on ticketmaster so i wouldnt skip it
Re: DMZ Amsterdam - 5 Days Off
You can get the membership at the door. That's not gonna sell-out. It basically just handles service costs of the venue and shit. Or it's supposed to, at least.

Re: DMZ Amsterdam - 5 Days Off

since recently we have one party at the krush club, organised by one87, first time we had youngsta and S.P.Y. over and the second time was only dnb with Nymfo, was pretty nice i thought, but almost no crowd on the party, which sucks actually..
me and friend want to start organising a real good dubstep party here at the coast, i think with some better promo we can get ppl to come from all over the coast and west-flanders, no? i think promo has always been the problem over here..
why'd u wanna know, living in ostend, thinking of coming to ostend?
Re: DMZ Amsterdam - 5 Days Off
Going to this! Making a 5-6 day super long weekend trip with a few friends and hitting up DMZ and Joy Orbison nights!!
Re: DMZ Amsterdam - 5 Days Off
Does every person need a membership or what?
Re: DMZ Amsterdam - 5 Days Off
Yes. It's comparable to the service costs of most venues.NilsFG wrote:Does every person need a membership or what?
But in Amsterdam's case, it's really just a way to leech more money out of you.

This is gonna be an expensive trip. 50 for trains, 19.50 for the tickets, 50-60 for hotels. And then a lot more for alcohol and the shops.
Think me and the mates will need to couchsurf.
Re: DMZ Amsterdam - 5 Days Off
Yeah, good luck with that. o.o Amsterdam is amazing, but so fucking expensive.NilsFG wrote:Lol I can see. 3.50 is quite a lot for service costs.Genevieve wrote:Yes. It's comparable to the service costs of most venues.NilsFG wrote:Does every person need a membership or what?
