Aircrew discount on Eurostar?

[stilton]

I work as a pilot for a major US carrier and need to travel from London to Brussels on the Eurostar in March.

Anyone know if any kind of discount is available?

Thanks.

It will be cheaper to fly, I enquired about costs and the prices were still astronomical with staff discount. I was quoted £95 in second class. Not worth it.

you can fly Ryanair London stanstead to Brussels Charleroi, from london liverpool street station take the stanstead express train then at the other end I think 13euros you can take the ryanair bus to brussels 45min.

FR have not been flying from Charleroi to London (or anywhere in England) after the subsidies they received were declared illegal. Your choices are BA or BD (+codeshares) from LHR, SN Brussels from LGW, or VLM from LCY. The latter comes closest to Eurostar in terms of convenience, unless your starting point is LHR anyway. There are some good one-way fares if you book early and travel off-peak.
