Amsterdam Centraal to Paris - Reroute to Rotterdam centraal
Traveling from Amsterdam to Paris with my wife, two young kids (4 & 1), and inlaws (70+) in October. Already had train tickets from Amsterdam Centraal to Paris, which was easy for us to reach as we were staying near the Amsterdam train station.
Well just got an email saying that due to maintenance we can no longer board at Amsterdam centraal and the next available station to board at is Rotterdam Centraal. Which wouldn't be a big deal if it was just my wife and I, but what makes it difficult is the two little kids and my inlaws. So trying to figure out my best option to get to Paris. Have a few options that I'm exploring and have a few questions. Basic options are use other transport to get to Rotterdam centraal and board there, get a driver to take us all to Rotterdam centraal, rent a car and drive to Paris, look up flights to paris.
Is there a local train from Amsterdam to Rotterdam that's not affected by the maintenance? And how easy is that trip?
Are there any regulations to cover any additional expenses that may occur due to the changes?
Edit: Travel date is October 5th.
