Hi - Can someone please help me with the best train option using global pass from paris to bruges. We are planning to start around 8 am and return same day by 8 pm. We are planning this late September , should I book/reserve the tickets now itself?

Check the timetables. You can either go via Brussels or Lille:

- 27€ Eurostar to Brussels (passholder quota, book ASAP) + regular train

- 10€ TGV to Lille-Flandres (rarely 20€, never sells out) + 2 regular trains

The latter option would give you more flexibility as seats are available on the day. For example:

- TGV Paris-Nord - Lille-Flandres 07:44 - 08:48

- TER/IC Lille-Flandres - Kortrijk 09:09 - 09:45

- IC Kortrijk - Bruges 09:55 - 10:44

I wouldn't leave later than that. Be at the station at 7:30am.
