Nielo Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Thank youvery much for your advice :-)One last question: I was thinking about buying the I Amsterdam Card because I`m going to stay in Amsterdam for three days. It includes free transports. I couldnt figure out if this includes the subway, too. Somehow I dont get the transport system in Amsterdam Do you know anything about this? I'd never heard of that card before, but I looked it up and it does include the subway (but they call it 'metro' on this website). It doesn't include the train though. And yes, the transport system in Amsterdam is pretty confusing, especially since they're in the middle of changing it. It's very annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are saying exactly the opposite from me . Obviously not every one feels the same about it. You are probably talking about changing to the OV chipkaart, I don't like that either. I still don't have one . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellody Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 (Just remember that when you take the subway in Amsterdam, you're gonna have to use a public transport chipcard). you need a chipcard? i just gotta get from the station to the venue, do i have to buy a chipcard for that, aren't there any single one-way tickets? Really? They don't want small big girls at all anymore? seems like it. at least in paris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IngievV Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Thanks a lot for explaining! I like that system, sounds good! (I am not sure if Ingie and FD are doing the number thing, I just thought I read smt like that.)

You are probably talking about changing to the OV chipkaart, I don't like that either. I still don't have one . Yeah, that's what I mean. And being a student, I'm forced to use the damn thing. But otherwise the system is fine. If you're used to it, that is. I've seen a lot of tourists completely boggled by just the sight of a tram. you need a chipcard? i just gotta get from the station to the venue, do i have to buy a chipcard for that, aren't there any single one-way tickets? I believe it's possible to just buy a chipcard for a day at the subway station. Kiddos, anyone willing to join in with the Alice gift? The book & cd thing? Yeah, that sounds cool. I'm in. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monie Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I just need a single ticket from Amstel station to Bijlmer ArenA, do I need a chipcard for that? If you go by metro, yes. But as Nielo said, there are day (or even hour) chipcards availabe, they cost like 2 euro 60 or something like that. If you go by train (which is possible as well) you can buy a train ticket (you have to have a credit card or something like that for that).

I'll get the 2 euros 60 one then, I think that's the one Bianca mentioned to me.

Monie Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 You do? Paying cash is possible too, or you could buy it online. Where I live you can't pay cash anymore. But there are stations where they have selling points with real people who sell tickets so Rose will be allright. The internet option is great as well.

Yeah, but the ticket machines (I'm having a complete black out concerning the translation of 'kaartautomaat' ) still accept cash too. (Although, only coins, so I see your point.)

If you go by metro, yes. But as Nielo said, there are day (or even hour) chipcards availabe, they cost like 2 euro 60 or something like that. pfft, a chipcard for just a few stations by metro?! can you just buy them at normal ticket machines and pay cash there? don't wanna queue for ages at a counter to buy a stupid one-way-ticket!
