FIP query

[tiptoptaff]

Hello,

Apologies if this in the wrong place. Looking at doing a London-Hamburg trip in March, with FIP. Does anyone know where i can do a price enquiry? We're considering it over flying as one of our group doesn't like flying. Know it'll be more but want some numbers!

thanks

FIP card or coupons? If you can get coupons for Belgium and Germany just the Eurostar to do and fares should be on the RSTL website. If buying tickets expect a DB advance from Brussels is cheaper than a FIP fare, DB website should do the job. FIP is off the Flexpreis only.

The Amsterdam route may be an option now too rather than ICE from Brussels and change. The Amsterdam-Berlins have a barcar if can use that to sway opinions to make it a rolling day of drinking!

Thanks, I'll have a look in to that. How far ahead can you book ICE tickets?

Generally 6 months, but times are liable to change so always check back!

London-Amsterdam-Hamburg will be slower and you won't AFAIK get a through fare from London on the DB site (however, as the situation for London Special tickets beyond November is uncertain, that may not be relevant). And if you are talking FIP that's another ballgame.
