I just checked, and it does show a fare (actually three:
London-Special 118 Euro (not refundable), Sparpreis 50 London 119,30
Euro and Sparpreis 50 London First Class for 236,80 Euro). Well, when
it is a RETURN from London, with a GO from Cologne. No trips starting
in London. These special prices are only available for trips using ICE
to Brussels, not with Thalys.

The web site tells the user that the tickets are mailed normally
within 2 or 3 days. Online ticket (printing ticket with computer at
home) is not available. I guess that is because of the check-in
procedures of Eurostar which requires their own special tickets for
that. This airline on wheels..


Cheers,
