hope it's appropriate to ask a question about the eurostar chunnel train here. would anyone know the best way to travel from paris-to-london-to-brussels on the eurostar train without spending an arm and a leg? from what i can gather, you must return to your city of origin to qualify for an affordable fare, meaning that i could only go to paris-london and return rather a triangle itinerary to include brussels. does anyone know a way around this? thanks.

Looking at the Eurostar fares, it seems the best way is to buy the following:
1. Paris - London single (Eurostar)
2. London - Brussels single (Eurostar)
3. Brussels - Paris single (Thalys)
(Single=one way)

The singles seem to be half the price of a return, but it is apparently cheaper to buy Eurostar tickets in France, so buy all three while you're in Paris.
