Frequently asked questions about engineering work

Can I claim a refund in case of delays?

Planned engineering work may extend your travel time because it is scheduled in advance. That is why you will not receive a refund if your arrival is delayed due to this.

You can claim a refund if your train is at least thirty minutes late compared to the timetable in the Journey Planner.

How does check-in and check-out work?

If you have to travel via a different route due to engineering work, check in and out at your departure and arrival stations as usual. Checking in and out at the same stations means you will not pay any extra fare.

If you need to check in and out at a different station along the way, you may pay a higher fare. If you have overpaid, you can request a refund from Customer Service.

Are you travelling by NS bus?

Check out at the station where you transfer from the train to the bus. A temporary check-in and check-out point is available by the bus. Use this to check in again. When you get off, check out at the bus stop.

If you continue your journey by train afterwards, check in again at your departure station.

Are you travelling by other public transport or a different train operator?

If engineering work means we advise you to travel with a different operator, your NS ticket will usually be valid with that operator. You check in and out with them and will not pay extra, provided you follow the instructions.

For example, if you travel by metro, you use your NS ticket but must check in and out both on the metro and with NS at your departure and arrival stations.

Can I take my bicycle on an NS bus?

Unfortunately, there is no space for bicycles on NS buses.

Do I have to pay extra if I need to travel via a different route?

You will not pay extra if you check in and out at the same stations as usual.

If you travel with a different operator because we advise it, you do not need to check in and out with that operator. Your NS ticket remains valid.

If you travel by NS bus, you also pay no more than usual. You check out at the train and then check in and out again on the NS bus.

If there is a gap of more than thirty-five minutes between checking out and in, you may pay more because this is treated as a new journey.

If you have overpaid, check the questionnaire to find out if you can claim a refund.

Do you have reduced mobility?

a high step to enter the bus
longer walking distances to and from the bus
possibly more standing while waiting

If you travel with a wheelchair or other mobility aid and buses are deployed, you can use our wheelchair taxi free of charge. Call NS Travel Assistance on 030 235 7822 or chat with NS Customer Service.

If you have a visual impairment and need assistance, we will gladly help you to or from the replacement transport. Call NS Travel Assistance (030 235 7822) or chat with NS Customer Service.
