二位小姐别着急。

Answer

区别不是很大 
两  后面接【个】
二  后面接【位】
but we use 两 more often in real life

Answer

一般说二位小姐说明她们是一起的，两位小姐有可能她们不是一起的

Answer

Actually in morden chinese grammar it shoul be 两位小姐.  The saying 二位小姐 is kind of old usage remains. Sometimes you may find it in traditional books or novels. Or some palces like beijing, the restaurant waiters may say 二位 too. Eg 二位里边请。really not often used. in one word, please use 两 with measure word
