Important information for all Eurostar travellers

The latest about Eurostar services

We’re pleased to report that Eurotunnel, the Channel Tunnel operator, has announced that repairs to the Channel Tunnel, following the incident last September, are to be completed by 10 February. Find out more information from Eurostar's Chief Executive, Richard Brown.
We will need a short transition period before we can implement our new, improved timetable, with additional services and faster journey times.

Therefore from 10 to 22 February, we will continue to operate the current departure times, with the possibility that some trains may arrive earlier than scheduled.

From 23 February, we will operate the new timetable. This date is slightly earlier than we originally expected so there may be changes to train times for some travellers who have already booked.

Therefore if you are travelling between 23 February and 11 March please be sure to check the chart below to see if your departure time has changed.

Basically the new time table is as follows:

Outbound

Leave London @ 9:53
Leave Ashford @ 10:28
Leave Lille @ 12:24
Arrive Disneyland @ 13:30

Return

Leave Disneyland @ 19:37
Leave Lille @ 20:30
Arrive Ashford @ 20:37
Arrive London @ 21:12

I can't wait for Eurotunnel to get back to normal, then I can plan trips without worrying if the times will be different

I can't see why they will change them again as that is the normal times before the fire, so they should all be back to running a normal timetable

Hopefully you will find out before you go

Awww that is disappointing. I like the changed times, getting to the Park an hour earlier and leaving later on departure day. What's not to like?

As more & more people used Eurostar in the past year, I would not be surprised if they add another direct service to Disney in the near future.

wow we are lucky as we come back on 22nd Feb, so are gaining the two extra hours there.
