[b]BRUSSELS (Bruxelles) - LONDON | EUROSTAR train[/b]
Information for Interrail, Eurail travellers and persons with normal train ticket.



[b]UPDATE:[/b] [u]https://rail.cc/en/train/brussels-to-london[/u]



[b]TIMETABLE:[/b]
Several daily connections.
There is a [b]special passholder fare[/b] for travellers owning a valid InterRail or Eurail 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 65 / £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. But sometimes you will find very cheap normal Eurostar tickets:
[u]https://rail.cc/en/train-tickets/france/fr[/u]

Or 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.





:idea: [b]Avoid the EUROSTAR - use a ferry:[/b]
