In 2026, train travel in Belgium remains relatively affordable but saw a scheduled price adjustment on February 1st. A Standard Ticket for a single journey between major cities like Brussels and Bruges typically costs between €16 and €22, depending on the distance. For those over 65, the "Senior Ticket" offers incredible value, capped at a maximum of €5.50 for a return trip anywhere in the country if you have the "Train+" subscription. Young travelers under 26 can utilize the "Youth Ticket" for a flat rate of around €7.50 per journey. Frequent commuters often use the "Standard Multi" (formerly the Rail Pass), which provides 10 trips for roughly €99, bringing the cost per trip down to under €10. It is important to note that tickets purchased on the train involve a surcharge, so using the SNCB/NMBS app or station kiosks is always cheaper. Supplementary fees for bringing a bicycle (€3–€5) or a pet (€3) remain in place. For international trips, like the Eurostar to London or the night train to Berlin, prices vary wildly based on booking time, with "early bird" fares starting as low as €79.
