Anxious about £69 Eurostar return tickets!

I'm confusing myself!!!!!
So if we book 90 days before, we still put in DLP (not Lille) and the Eurostar site will come up with options for the indirect service, at (hopefully) cheaper prices?

yes, thats right


If the 2 tickets will be included in the price, any idea how much it's likely to be on the first day to book? Don't want to wait and then find it's only a few pounds cheaper than now and had all that wait and worry for little reward if that makes sense? Can you tell we've only ever booked direct before?!

my indirect fare between Ebbsfleet and DLP, booked through Eurostar as soon as the fares came out at 90 days, was £39.75 per adult, and £37 per child.

Just had a slightly confusing phone conversation with a very helpful man from Eurostar, who, upon discovering that our dates were not available to book yet (15-19th Dec), advised that we should try ringing again in about a week to see if we can book then? I was under the impression that if tickets were not yet available then they would be released with the next block of tickets around May time?!
I was calling to ask about being notified when the tickets became available, but maybe this won't be necessary?
Do you think he was just uniformed about the release of direct London to Disneyland tickets?!

no i think he could be right - phone bookings for up to 13th december were only available a couple of weeks ahead of the online dates showing up, so i would do as he advisedand phone again next week to see if your dates are available.

That's good news; we thought we would have to wait until the summer
