#6 Same here. Just did a bank transfer Monday and it hit my bank on Wednesday. One tip, let your bank know that you will be using paypal and that paypal will be sending money to your account, and in some cases taking money out of your bank account. #7 For me in India, it takes about 3-4 working days and sometimes in just 2-3 days.
Travel from Brussels to Amsterdam direct on the high-speed Thalys train. Offering great service, amenities & e-tickets, Thalys is the way to go from Brussels to Amsterdam. In Brussels be sure to visit the Grand Place and then go looking for the Mannekin Pis statue to discover what costume he's modeling.
Due to work on the high-speed line in The Netherlands, trains will not stop at the Schiphol station. The Schiphol station can only be reached by local trains departing from Rotterdam. To reach Paris, Brussels or Antwerp, you must purchase a ticket from Rotterdam. Print then your travel confirmation to travel free between Rotterdam and Schiphol. This will be your ticket.
