Is Thalys Comfort worth 2X the price of 2nd Class seats from Paris to Dortmund?
Yes, I know questions of "worth it" are indeed subjective yet I'm still asking.

For a 4 hr, 46 minute direct route on Thalys on Sunday morning, Nov 4 (07:55 - 12:41) for my husband and me, I'm leaning toward the special €35 per person fare in 2nd class if I can get it once we are at the 120 day mark. I will request seats facing each other and hopefully Thalys will assign them to us. As an aside, I just noticed that the cheapest prices for Sunday Oct 28 in the 2nd class cars are already €121.80!

We are traveling on a budget but if the 1st class seats at €70 each (Comfort, not Premium) are that much more spacious, is it something to consider for a nearly 5 hour trip?
