How much do you spend getting to A'dam?

[Willjay]

It's the exchange rate and the cost airfare that gets me every time. I think they should bring back the Guilder, those were the good old days.

Yea this low exchange rate is bad! & expensive flights are a drain on me also,KD.

Believe me when I say it may not seem that much of a bargain sitting in the same coach seat for 12hrs, good luck "waking up and your there" lol

Then factor in munchies for the coach travel to and from the bus station and whatever expenses there are it's actually not that much of a bargain (sorry for sounding so negative it's just I have personally done the trip)

Yup, I have sleepeze and I generally am a very heavy sleeper. I have done 15-18 hour coach journeys before and it's not too bad. Bring a sandwhich, some pepsi and crisps and its sorted. And I get half price travel from the train station up to London so it's about £1.50. Then I have a friend in the Dam who's meeting me and my partner so free travel there. All in all looking about maybe another £10 extra tops.

£56 return on Eurolines from Victoria to Amstel. Book the night coaches each way, smoke a couple of fat joints before boarding at each end, sleep through the journey. Only problem is dealing with the frenchies on both sides. Aside from that, our coach driver was selling damn good Belgian beer for a euro and I managed to pick up a pair of skullcandy headphones on the ferry for half price. Not so bad really!

July's trip costing a lovely £50 including debit card fee with easyjet from Edinburgh...gosh I cant wait until october when they start again from Glasgow!!!

[Balou]

My latest flight cost me $903. I could have a kick ass trip if I lived in the UK.

It all depends how you travel; the cheapest being the Coach from London since you don't pay so many taxes, but it's possible to get trains all the way there, or Rail and Sail Packages, or low cost flights with most carriers. Some people drive there, but the fuel costs would put me off making the drive.

[EpistemicInvariant]

$340/person from ES to dam; that's round trip and in USD. Then tack on just south of $600 for hotel in dam and that's an expensive trip.

[strawberrysoul]

BusinessFirst is nice, last time I flew 18+ hours in economy and that sucked as Im almost 6'4, the freaking guy in front of me had his seat back the whole effing trip!
I looked at business class but went for first class for my first time ever, cant wait! Good Luck Balou
Super jealous of u UK guys I would be in AMS every month at least if it was that cheap and quick
