It all depends on what you prefer and cost for you. We are from the north east and can only go during holiday times and self drive using euro tunnel. We love it. We sometimes book hotel English side for the night and get the early train the next day or we drive through and book a hotel close to Disney (cheaper than the extra night in DLP). This year we've added 2 days on at the start so can have a chilled few days before hitting the parks.

i'm in the Midlands and I've done it several ways in the past, my favourite is Easyjet from Luton (thats about 2 hours drive from me) as they do several flights a day into CDG. I haven't yet driven all the way with either ferry or Eurotunnel. I have done Eurostar from Ebbsfleet though, thats cool and doesn't have to be mega-expensive if you book early.
I wouldn't rule out an evening Easyjet flight out to CDG either from Liverpool for example, as you can get fairly cheap hotel rooms near DLP for your arrival night, then move to onsite early morning next morning for your park time to start . |

I live in herefordshire and tend to fly from Birmingham, which is about 1 1/2 hrs drive for me. We tend to get the cheapest flights from there. I have researched flying from Bristol and Cardiff but never found flights at a decent price. I have driven to ebbsfleet once and caught Eurostar but the drive home was awful...i was so tired I swore I'd never do it again, it's just too far.flights for us tend to be around £100-130 return.

We flew from Birmingham last time and have booked the same this December. The airport is 45 mins from us so it’s very easy. We would like to try the Eurostar but as flights are so easy for us we haven’t got round to it yet!

We have in the past got train from Durham to kings cross, stayed over night at travelodge then travelled the next day on the Eurostar. The Eurostar is getting more expensive so we have got the train to Manchester and easyJet flight from there but next year I’m planning on going may half term for my birthday and booking flights from Edinburgh and just getting train up from Durham and taxi to the airport or airport hotel depending on flight times.

The advantage of Eurostar is that the station is literally next to the parks so you can arrive and go straight in. If staying onsite your luggage can be sent to the hotel, and if offsite there Is a left luggage place at the parks.
I guess you need to look at timings for the rest of the journey as to whether it makes sense. |
