As for your alternative question on “how to get the cheapest fare in Thalys”: the b-europe.com website offers a fare calendar. For each date, it shows the price of the cheapest tickets still available on that date. The cheapest possible fare for a trip from Liège-Guillemins to Paris Nord seems to be €29. These are always “Non Flex” tickets (color coded in green) meaning there’s no possibility of exchanges or refunds. There might be cheaper tickets because there’s a color code for “Promo” tickets (yellow), but I’m not seeing any on the fare calendar now (I’m not sure I ever have for the routes I’ve booked).

You can always book up to three months in advance, so today April 7th, you can book tickets up to July 7th. For that date, the cheapest offers I’m currently seeing are:

I’m not sure about the Liège-Paris route, but in my experience with other routes, these offers don’t last long, especially if you don’t want to travel on a very early or very late train. So your best bet is to book exactly three months in advance.

Eurolines has a direct service between Liège and Paris. It’s a 6 hours ride.

The best strategy to get cheap Thalys tickets is to book early enough. There is only a very limited number of very cheap seats.

There are good train connections from Liege to Lille. From Lille there are frequent tgv connections with Paris. On the website of the French railways there are often good offers for last minutes between Lille and Paris.

If you have time, you could also take the slow train route from Lille to Paris

How about car sharing? A random search on Blablacar shows prices oscillating between 20-30EUR. In terms of time, according to Rome2Rio you are an hour slower than the Thalis, but the fare is a lot cheaper. Moreover your trip doesn’t have to be organised too far in advance, and the price does not vary dependingly.
