- Make sense to split German and cross-border travel in Cologne or Aachen.
3
- It also makes sense to restrict KA->Cologne segment to IC. There is a
4
a bit slower, but often cheaper EC train. Total time is about 5:30 as
5
compared with 4:30 with ICE.
6
- Aachen to border city Welkenraedt costs 4 EUR. Inner Belgium tickets
7
costs 7,60 EUR if used with Rail-pass (10 tickets). However, this requires
8
RE usage between Aachen and Liege and adds 1 more hour at least.
9
DB has often has similar offers (~ 14 EUR) allowing faster trains.
10
Also there is Belgian Aachen ticket for roughly 15 EUR without train
12
- There is Weekend Aachen ticket in Belgium which allows travel from/to
13
Aachen for half price (~ 8 EUR).
14
- Inner-german 1 way ticket costs 1000 points, international - 2000. The
15
return ticket only doubles the price. In my opinion it worth buying ticket
16
until Aachen if the price is above 35 EUR.
