Planning to be in Paris in the springtime? SNCF (the French national train company) is running several promotions this week. Promotional fares are for journeys from Paris over the next few months.

The best deal is the €66 round-trip fare to London, per person, when you travel with a buddy. You have to reserve before April 10 to get this fare, and it’s not valid for all trains.

Other great deals include €19 one-way tickets (again, per person, assuming two people traveling together) from Paris to Brussels, Bruges, and Liège. Another good deal: €30 per person will get you and a chum one-way tickets from Paris to Lille or Dijon. The key to the lowest fares is flexibility with your travel days.

Use a credit-card to reserve your journey online in advance. You can pick up your ticket on your departure day from an automated machine at the train station.
