[b]LONDON - PARIS | EUROSTAR train[/b]



[b]TIMETABLE:[/b]
Several daily connections: [ux]https://rail.cc/en/train/london-to-paris[/u]
There is a [b]special passholder fare[/b] for travellers owning a valid InterRail ticket.
The [b]passholder fare is non-refundable[/b] but is exchangeable once before the departure of either leg, subject to seat availability at the time of request.



[b]Passholder fare:[/b]
[b]SINGLE one way: EUR 70 / £57,50 for a single[/b]
[b]RETURN: EUR 130 / £100[/b]



[b]Where to buy:[/b]
[b]1) [/b]You can not buy the ticket to the special InterRail fare online. Often you have cheaper special price tickets here - cheaper than the Interrail reservation fare: [ux]https://rail.shop/beurope[/ux]

Directly at the Eurostar website.
[b]2) [/b]At a Eurostar Terminal
[b]3) [/b]At the contact centre on 08705 186 186 (in the UK only) or +44 1233 617 575 (international calls).

[b]The ticket to the special passholder fare can not be purchased online!!![/b]



All tickets are sold subject to availability.
All tickets purchased over the phone are subject to a £5 booking fee.
As long as you are in possession of your pass on the day of travel, it is not necessary to validate it first.





:idea: [b]CHEAPER normal tickets[/b] (update by SiDUDe):
If you can book in advance you can usually find much cheaper advanced normal tickets, sometimes as low as half the pass holder price for a return, although you have to commit to specific trains on specific days.
Cheaper tickets via: [ux]https://rail.shop/beurope[/ux]




:idea: [b]Avoid the EUROSTAR - use a ferry:[/b]
[b]UK (Dover) - FRANCE (Calais)[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/en/ferry-london-paris-england-france/f1222[/u]
[b]UK (Harwich) - NETHERLANDS (Hoek van Holland)[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/blog/from-london-to-amsterdam-with-the-dutchflyer/[/u]



[b]IMPORTANT UPDATE:[/b]
Due to the unclear situation about the ferry fares simply use an inexpensive overnight coach:
