ok, if there is nothig else "officially" to discuss, lets close for now and Freso and I will continue.
Freso
We (well, you) will need two "travel zones" (1 and 2).
ruaok
really wow.
Freso
So that's 36 DKK per 24-hour per person.
kloeri
ruaok, Freso: anything I should ask CBS? I'd like to poke them again just to make sure we're on track
Freso
So about 10 € for 48 hours of free travel if at least 25 people join in.
chirlu`
“Please order the Travel Passes at least 6 weeks in advance”
ruaok
at least.
Freso
chirlu`: Ah, snap. :p
ruaok
heh.
and we're also not 25 people.
if we can travel in groups of 3-5 that would be ideal.
Freso
Also, we're not quite at... yeah.
Okay. Next option.
There doesn't seem to be group tickets per se.
At least I can't find any info about it. :/
ruaok
ok, everyone, thanks for your time. stick around if you want to hear about the intracacies of the CPH public transit system. :)
Freso: can we buy single tickets in advance?
kloeri
Freso: maybe try calling DSB perhaps?
ruaok
and the machines at the station closest to us… can they take chip-bank cards? From spain?
I know the offical bank card won't be accepted.
Freso
ruaok: VISA?
ruaok
but my personal one from spain should be.
Visa Electron.
Which seems to be a big deal.
kloeri
Freso: or maybe the local tourist information?
Freso
I think they should be able to.
ruaok
ns.nl doesn't accept that.
at all.
Freso
kloeri: I could try and call DSB on the morrow.
ruaok
Freso: please do.
Freso
ruaok: Anyway.
ruaok wonders how trustworthy DSB is.
ruaok
for the US you would call three times. if the stories all lined up, you got the truth.
if not, call back until some sort of story congeals.
kloeri
I'd expect visa elextron to be accepted as it's not all that uncommon for young people in Denmark to have that
ruaok
kloeri: good to know.
Freso
If they confirm that there are no group tickets, the options I'd recommend are basically either city passes or "10-trip tickets".
ruaok
and since I arrive before most people, I can check things out and try and anticipate problems
can 10-trip tickets be shared between people on the same ride?
ruaok loves that feature
kloeri
should be fairly easy figuring out in advance which cards are accepted at the stations
ruaok
if so, that is a good solution.
Freso
A city pass is either 24 hours (80 DKK) or 72 hours (200 DKK) for zones 1 through 4 (the airport is in zone 3, you will stay in zone 2 and CBS is in zone 1 - you won't need zone 4).
