Train fares and tariffs / Frankfurt-Brussels-London-Paris-Frankfurt
« on: August 04, 2012, 10:40:14 am »
I am planning a trip for next year and have kind of concluded the course of action I need to take but would really appreciate some advice or confirmation as to whether I am being sensible or not.
All advice seems to be to book directly with the rail companies, eg DBahn, EuroStar as soon as their booking window for the dates I want become available. I have booked using DBahn before and was happy with the process. Questions I have are:
1. Do I book Paris-Frankfurt with DBahn or FrenchRail?
2. My forward from Frankfurt will be during Easter, any particular advice re that travel period?
3. I will be connecting after flying into Frankfurt and am a little concerned that if the plane is late my train booking will be lost, any customer support if I miss the train through late aircraft arrival?
4. Is there a more economical way of purchasing these point to point tickets, Eurail pass seems to be not economical for 1 pax.
