I will be commutting to Brussels for the next few months. I was told that a number of low fare airlines are flying in between the two cities.
If booked in advance, prices can be as cheap as 50 USD however the flight would be the first flight out of the airport.
Does anyone have a list of these airlines?

BMI, VLM, BA, SN Brussels operate nonstop flights between these cities. http://www.skyscanne… and http://www.cheapflig… should help.

While Sammo doesn’t need this bit of information, for others looking at this route….

Always check www.eurostar.com By the time you add in the cost of getting to and from the airports, luggage fees and taxes, special Eurostar fares may make the train as cheap as flying — and there’s a lot less hassle and discomfort.

I used Eurostar for the 2nd time and the first time as a commuter. I went to Belgium but was pleasantly surprised.
For the benefit of the readers only: If you have an American Express card, the VIP lounge is free to use. Its really nice and has WIFI connections through out.
All drinks, foods, alcohol, newspapers and magazines to carry are all free.

Its amazing how nice my trip was. However my return was a little tough when the leg space is quite limited. If the passenger opposite to you is large, and you too, then once has to enjoy the countryside to take the mind off the leg space.

Door to Door it took me
30 min to St. pancreas
15 min to the tickets and customs and train
2 hours on the train and
15 minutes to the office in Brussels totallying 3 hours to Brussels.

I guess it will be around the same on the plane.

I found it,
I was hoping I had written down the name of the website through whom I had purchased the EuroStar ticket however i cannot seem to see it.
My mistake,

I need to find the website again. Has anyone bought tickets for Eurostar through a travel website? Names will be appreciated.
