I plan on taking the train from Paris to Bruges. By ordering early, I may be able to get a discount. When entering a sample date 90 days early, this is what I am finding:
Paris to Bruges - 87 Euro - no discount
Paris to Brussels ABS (all stations) - 87 Euro - no discount
Paris to Brussels - 25 Euro (MINI fare)
Obviously I should buy the cheapest ticket. My question is, do I still need to buy a Brussels to Bruges ticket or is this included? Is there a reason for the discrepency? Thanks for your help.

Paris to Brussels means Brussels... a ticket to Bruges won%26#39;t be expensive and you could just buy it when you arrive at the Brussels station. You might need to go from Brussels-Gare Midi (Zuid) to Central and then change for the train to Bruges, I don%26#39;t remember. You can probably get the price by using the Belgian rail site: www.b-rail.be/
Note: the discounted r/t ticket between Paris-Brussels is most likely non-changeable and non-refundable, so make sure your return trip is timed to allow adequate travel time to and from Bruges.

The new Thalys %26quot;mini%26quot; tickets are extremely cheap, but only available in very limited quantities for a few journeys (from Paris to Germany/Netherlands/Brussels/Antwerp/Liège). The conditions for use: only one way available; in Comfort 2 only; and they cannot be changed or refunded.
