Eurostar - London to Brussels with an option to Lille?

Hi all,

I am planning to go to Lille from London using the Eurostar, but if the Lille plan falls through I'll just go to Brussels instead. This is on a one way ticket.

I noticed that prices for Brussels and Lille are the same, so I was considering just buying the ticket to Brussels early (cheaper fares), while ensuring it is a train that also stops at Lille, and, if the Lille plan does materialise, just exit the train at Lille and forfeit the Lille to Brussels part of my ticket.

Apart from making sure that I am on a train that actually stops in Lille, does anyone see a weakness with this plan?

I think it's pretty foolproof but you never know.
