Hi Cosmo, per my other post to you regarding the Franfurt airport, if you go to www.google.com and type in Airport in Brusells you will get the website for the Brussells airport.

Another website that might be useful to you is http://worldairportguide.com

You can then click on to get the website of every airport in the world.

Hope this is of some help. Happy travels to you!

Hey Cosmo, I have been braindead for weeks so I truly understand! In fact I am not going to Europe this autumn I am so braindead, LOL. Take a break, and do the searches after you feel more relaxed. Right now I am giving myself a break from life to to speak and it is amazing after four days I almost think I have retreived my brain. Best wishes to you.

I tried www.bahn.de, and typing "Brussels Airport" is fine. It automatically gave the name "Bruxelles-Nat.-Aerop".

On www.b-rail.be Dutch and French names are given:
"Brussel-Nat.-Luchthaven/Bruxelles-Nat.-Aeroport
Paris Nord"

If you search under the Belgian railways site in English, put in Zaventem Airport (the official name of the aiport).
At any rate, there are four trains per hour (starting at 6 am) from the airport to Brussels Midi (Zuid) train station where you pick up the Thalys train to Paris. Give yourself about 30 minutes for the train journey to Brussels Midi (cost one way is 2.6 euros). Once in Brussels Midi, walk over to the new wing that houses the tracks for Thalys, Eurostar, TGV and ICE trains (the walk takes about 3 minutes).
