Save £3 on all Eurostar Deals
Author: Alex
I’m going to explain how you can save £3 per transaction on all Eurostar Deals booked over the internet.
It’s quite simple really since the Eurostar company has introduced a charge of £3 per credit card transaction for all bookings by phone, at the station or on the internet. The internet is still the most convenient and easiest way to book Eurostar deals, and sometimes cheaper, but never more costly than the other methods described. Charging for credit card use is a practice that is increasingly common with all kinds of travel companies, including airlines, someof whom charge more than the £3 and add other extras as well. They all do this because the credit card companies themselves levy a charge per transaction, which is picked up by the vendor.
The way to save £3 on Eurostar deals is to use a bank debit card instead when making the internet booking. Cards such as Maestro and Visa Debit Card come in two sorts – bank account direct debit cards and pre-paid debit cards, which are equivalent to electronic cash. By using any kind of bank debit card instead of a credit card the £3 fee is waived, reflecting the much lower costs levied by the banks for this type of payment card so you get your Eurostar deals for £3 cheaper every time.

Author: Alex
The disadvantage with flying, as any regular taker of Paris breaks will tell you is that it can take twice as long to get from Charles de Gaulle airport to your hotel. The Eurostar high speed train on the other hand, offers a smooth check-in, more leg-room than the President’s Bentley, a genuinely decent food and drink menu and the promise of arriving straight into the Gare du Nord in Paris. Or in the case of Disneyland arriving within sight of the hotel at Disneyland Resort Paris.
Through-fares from Birmingham to Paris, Brussels and the resort itself start from around £80 standard return and £210 Leisure Select by choosing Eurostar deals in conjunction with Virgin Trains. There are 12 Eurostar trains a day to Paris, and seven services to Brussels throughout the year. In just 5 hours 20 minutes, you will be in the heart of Disneyland Resort Paris. Very impressive.
Just a couple of hundred yards from the smart Marne la Vallee Eurostar terminal stands the Hotel New York, where the rooms are themed around the US city with stylish furnishings, plenty of room and lashings of American attitude. Local staff are exceptionally friendly, in accordance with the Disneyland vision.

Eurostar Paris Unaffected by Strike
Author: Alex
News reports from France confirm that Eurostar Paris journeys are unaffected by the general public sector strike.
Disruption has swept across other parts of the French transport network in Paris as both public and private sector workers have been on strike to protest at the deterioration of the French economy.
Hundreds of thousands of French workers attended more than two hundred rallies across the country in protest at president Nicolas Sarkozy’s inability to protect wages and jobs.
Postal workers and teachers angry with plans to shed 13,000 positions in 2009 and also court officials have all joined the day of protest alongside transport and local government workers.
Reports suggest however that disruption to travel in the capital has not been as severe as expected. Some 60 per cent of services are operating normally, while Eurostar Paris services are unaffected. So anybody arriving on Eurostar deals to Paris today can expect to arrive punctually at Gare du Nord but may face some delays with their onward journey.
Eurostar Paris Breaks from London at Full Speed in February
The section of the Channel Tunnel hit by a serious fire last September, causing changes to the Eurostar Paris timetable, will be reopened in three weeks time, tunnel operator Eurotunnel has announced.
The part of the tunnel known as “interval six” will reopen in the early hours of 10 February, said Eurotunnel who are responsible for the tunnel through which Eurostar trains travel.
High speed passenger service Eurostar said that from 23 February it would return to a normal timetable with all services to Paris and London operating at full speed. So that’s great news for anybody booking Paris breaks for the near future.
