From Paris, I’ll be travelling to Brussels, Bruges, and Amsterdam before flying back to the U.S. For this leg of the journey, I’m planning on purchasing a Benelux-France Rail Pass.

Does anyone have any suggestions/tips/advice/experience? I’ve compared my options so many times my eyes are starting to cross!

Would it be a bad decision to wait until I get to London to make a choice? Is there really that much of a difference in cost. As I compare right now online, it doesn’t seem to be that much more to book about a week in advance–BUT–this will be during the summer, so I’m just looking for advice. My travel dates are totally flexible, BTW.

Thanks in advance!
Thank you so much for your recommendations! You’ve really helped fill in some holes for me! One more question…

Would you recommend getting my Eurostar ticket now (1 1/2 months in advance) or should I just wait until I’m in London (which will give me about a week to book)? I’m trying not to really commit to a "schedule," and am planning an itinerary that’s fairly flexible as far as travel dates.

I would go for the train, less hassle and more choice in travel times, and no hidden costs like that transport to and from the airports.

The trains and planes will be more filled by the summer, not less, so the price difference between booking early and buying just before you travel will be bigger.
Buying on the day you want to travel can be 10 times as expensive as buying well beforehand. And on top of that comes the risk that all trains and planes are fully booked, forcing you to use an inconvenient time or to pospone your trip by a few days.

For your travel Paris to Amsterdam, compare the price of the pass with tickets bought on the day or shortly before travel, as you will not use your pass a lot and it may be much cheaper to just buy the tickets.
If you buy your tickets for Paris-Amsterdam full price, you pay less than for a pass, and you will have to pay a reservation fee on top of the price of the pass too. And with a little searching you can find tickets for less than €100 even for the day of travel. And by breaking your journey in Brussels, your total travel costs will not go up that spectacular, but the choice in trains, and therefore your chances on cheaper tickets, will improve a lot.
Brussels-Amsterdam costs €37,80 full price or €24,60 for under 26 years of age, and takes almost 3 hours, the Thalys, the fast train takes just under 3 hours and costs €64 if you buy today for todays train, and would need a surcharge on your pass.

Only if you plan on traveling a lot more in France or the Benelux the price of the pass is worth it.

In exercises 43-58, first choose a variable and tell what it represents. Then write and algebraic expression for each word expression.

1. The quotient of the distance traveled and the rate, 50 miles per hour
2. The cost of the dinner plus a tip of $5.45
3. Four centimeters less than Bob’s height
4. The cost of a new car less the depreciation, $1200
5. The distance traveled divided by the time, 3 hours
6. Twice the air distance from San Francisco to Chicago
7. Fifteen pounds more than the average weight
8. The cost of a tennis racquet minus the discount, $6.90
9. Nine degrees less than the average temperature

Thank You this is all

1. The quotient of the distance traveled and the rate, 50 miles per hour
distance=d,time rate=50 velocity(v)=d/t=50miles/hour
2. The cost of the dinner plus a tip of $5.45
total cost-t dinner cost=t; t=d+50
3. Four centimeters less than Bob’s heigh
bob’s height=b c=b-4
4. The cost of a new car less the depreciation, $1200
new cost=n old cost= 1200; n=d+1200
5. The distance traveled divided by the time, 3 hours
velocity=v distance=d v=d/3
6. Twice the air distance from San Francisco to Chicago
x=new distance air distace b/w the 2 cities=y;x=2y
7. Fifteen pounds more than the average weight
new weight=n ave wt=a n=15+a
8. The cost of a tennis racquet minus the discount, $6.90
new cost=n actual cost(a)=n-6.90
9. Nine degrees less than the average temperature
new temo(n)=ave temp(a)-9
