Eurostar launches UK through-fares
Eurostar has launched through-fares to France and Belgium from 68 major towns and cities in the UK.
The high-speed train’s booking system has been linked with those of seven UK train operators: Virgin Trains, First Capital Connect, National Express East Coast, East Midlands Trains, Chiltern Railways, Hull Trains and London Midland, meaning travellers only have to book one ticket for their entire journey.
The through-fares are available up to 84 days in advance and include travel on London Underground for passengers needing to transfer to St Pancras International.
If travellers miss a train due to a late-running connecting service, they will be able to travel on the next available Eurostar or domestic train at no extra cost.
In the second half of 2008, Eurostar and the UK train operators will extend the range of through-fares to more cities, as well as from continental towns and cities for business travellers and holidaymakers heading inbound to destinations across Britain.
Return fares start at £67.
