Hi, im really wanting to go this december ive been thinking the 16th to 20th, is this a good week?
Would going a week earlier be any less busy (school holidays?)
How many days before travel do eurostar tickets become available to buy,
I cant seem to find it on their website, I think I remember seeing it was 100 and something??
Thanks ​

Hi

We are going the 2nd -6th December and booked our eurostar tickets 2 weeks ago

If you phone them they are available to book a lot earlier than on the website so we got a really good price 2 adults a youth and a child for 251 pounds on the direct service - when i priced it up with disneyland as a package they wanted double that (i think the only difference was n magical express but to be honest that doesnt really bother us on the way out so i may just add it before we check out )

Good luck !!!

the week of 9th December will be quieter than the week of 16th December, but there won't be a lot in it I guess, unless French or Spanish schools break up before the 21st December?

Phone Eurostar now, if your dates are not out for sale yet they soon will be, and if you book by phone as soon as you can you will get the cheapest prices. Don't wait for the dates to come online.

We hare going on these exact dates
We went at the same time last year, it was busy but not unbearable (but really quiet when it rained)!!!! I dont think the schools have broken up by then, but it will still be fairly busy.
The Eurostar for these dates are being released in August apparently ! phone them and you can provisionally reserve the dates and receive an email when they are going to be released.
Hope this helps x

Thanks for replies.
Went into my local travel agents today and can book the eurostar now with them through disney.
Wont be going on the 16th, the eurostar was far to expensive for those dates.
Aparantley theres no eurostar trains on the 9th 10th & 11th of dec.
Going during the week before the 16th worked out quite alot cheaper, so I
think we will go then hopefully​

going through Disney for your eurostar seats is usually a fair bit more expensive than just booking it yourself with eurostar.

Thats exactly what happened with us - i wanted to book for the 2nd dec adn the eurostar worked out over double the price that eurostar quoted for exactly the same train ??!!

I would love to know how they work out the prices
