TGV Fares Raised?

Anyone have any insight on a raise in TGV fares? I ask specifically about the piccilo fares you could buy 90 days out for 29Euros. We were finalizing our itenerary and considering a few days in Paris. From past research on sncf.com I'd seen those fares from Switzerland if bought well in advance. We would be going from Bern to Paris. Now instead of them being 29, they are 45 Euros.

Any thoughts? Or any ideas if those fares might come back? The sbb website has a similar price, 70-75sf I believe. We would be traveling around the last week or so of May.

Fares have not been raised. There are only a certain number of seats allotted for discount fares like Piccolo. When they're gone you have to pay the standard fare.

Thanks Tim. That's what i'd thought about the fares. I guess when I was checking in the past they just lasted a little longer and we are still about 81 days out for our trip I think. Oh well.
