Eurostar On-board check-in

[Guest]

Hi, I have only just discovered this fantastic site and am off to DLP in 2 days time! We are travelling from Ashford on Eurostar and have the express service so will be checking in on board. Can anyone tell me do they issue your breakfast 'passes' at this time or do we need to get them from the hotel later? We've always checked in at the hotel before having flown, so this is a first for us. Thanks very much.

Did you book your Eurostar package with Disneyland Paris direct or independently. It works differently either way!

And, welcome to the Dibb!

Hey JRJ!

Welcome to the DIBB!

Yup, you will get breakie allocation on board, but as you might expect its first come first served. If you can managed to get their attention and put yourself "at the front of the queue" as it were, you can negotiate for the early, more popular slots.

Brilliant, thankyou. Is there a marked area for the check in or does it just 'happen' - sorry about my naivity - I'm just a bit worried that we could miss it and end up having brekkie at 9am (not ideal I know).

We booked our hotel with Disneyland Paris and added the express check-in with them later, once we'd booked our Eurostar tickets.

Then you're check in should be at St. Pancras.
Just follow the signs

No,definitely boarding at Ashford so it's on the train somewhere I hope. I'll just look out and follow the crowd!

Thanks again

They'll be a Disney team wandering up and down the train.
Do yourself a favour and see if you can find them

Sorry to disagree with you James but on our trip in January aboard Eurostar and booked entirely through Disney we didnt get our breakfast passes until we picked up our rooms keys when we returned to the Santa Fe after the parks had shut.

In previous years we picked up our entire package (room key/tickets/breakfast passes at the Eurostar station (Waterloo the last time we went by train), now they do it on board the train and just issue tickets and food vouchers if applicable. They obviously have your details and seat numbers as they approached our group and asked for me (lead booker). Im sure for Ashford they did the same.

See more...

Ah. Thanks for the update.

Like you say - this seems to be a change in procedure.

On the times we went on Eurostar (admittedly, some years ago) you got the lot done and dusted either at Waterloo or on the train.

Seems things have changed a bit. Im getting old...

hmm was a pain though when we got to the Santa Fe as 2 of the days they only had later slots available, have to confess we were a bit naughty and went earlier but didnt have a problem.
