Online booking - be aware
It's crazy how websites unwittingly hide journeys from you that you might be trying to book. And it's all to easy to find examples of this.
Tickets for TGV trains, as well as a number of other trains in Europe, have just gone on sale for January, February and March.
And given that the year is 2026, one would think that technology would allow you to find and book the journeys that you want to, online.
However, all too often, that simply isn't the case. All too easily, I've found an example to show you, so that you don't get unwittingly fooled.
Let's say you want to travel from London, via Paris, to Cluses - going on Saturday 23rd January 2027. From Cluses station, you are a 25 - 50 minute transfer from the resorts of Les Gets, Morzine, Avoriaz, Samoens, Les Carroz and Flaine. All home to some wonderful skiing.
So you look on The Trainline website.
