Eurostar is holding its lead-in fare of £59 return for the sixth year running – a 20% price fall in real terms since 2003.
The high-speed passenger rail service from the UK to the Continent said its starting price of £59 return will be available up to four months in advance of travel. There are no surcharges or taxes. It is valid to Paris, Disneyland Resort Paris, Brussels and any station in Belgium.
Eurostar commercial director Nick Mercer said: “We know travellers want good value, so we’re offering them the chance to plan an affordable spring break or summer holiday.”
Eurostar offers tickets from 150 towns and cities in the UK in conjunction with domestic train operators and children under the age of four travel for free.
Eurostar’s lead-in return fare has reduced from £95 in 1994 when services began and dropped to £59 in 2003, which is less than half the price in real terms compared with 14 years ago.
