Superb Value of Eurostar

Since 1998, Eurostar train services have won the award for being the World’s Leading Rail Service. Since its opening in 1994, they have served over 75 million passengers, covering over 100 destinations, and offer accommodations for all of your needs.

Eurostar’s main line goes through the Channel, locally called “The Chunnel”, going between the city centers of London and Paris in 2 hours and 15 minutes, and runs every 30 minutes during peak seasons, otherwise roughly every hour. Even traveling at speeds averaging 186 miles an hour, you can still enjoy a nice comforting atmosphere on Eurostar trains. If you get hungry or need to do any of your office work while you are on the train, they are able to meet your specific needs. Hot or cold three course meals are provided to first class, while second-class ticket holders may take advantage of the buffet car, purchase meal tickets, or bring along their own food or drink.

Eurostar train fares from London to Paris start as low as $116 one-way, or $160 round trip, when booking your ticket directly with them. Purchasing of a rail pass does not cover your fare on Eurostar, however it will get you a special discounted rate. As with most travel situations, you can save time and money by purchasing your ticket online. During the peak months, Eurostar has a pre-booking window of four months, but during off-season they extended the pre-booking as far out as nine months in advance. Second-class tickets are subject to an additional fee if you need to make any changes or cancellations.

Some airlines offer special lower rates going in between London and Paris than what Eurostar offers. However, airport taxes can be in excess of 15%, and that is not including extra travel time to get to the city centers. The French Alps, Disneyland Paris, and Brussels are just three of the other hundred or so stations that are serviced by Eurostar.

Therefore, if only for a day trip, or an extended traveling vacation, Eurostar trains are the way to travel. The amenities offered, service, and record of accomplishment that Eurostar maintains, is sure to meet, if not exceed your expectations. Save time and money by traveling with Eurostar, and experience the award winning “World’s Leading Rail Service”.
