Thank you. Have never been to disneyland Paris, only the disney in Florida. Am looking at the two nights with free meals and wasn't sure about the one stop with Eurostar. I know the direct one includes the disney express service, but it am not sure whether the extra cost is worth it when I can pay £19 return for the disney express on arrival at the disney train station.

i wouldn't worry about the disney express both ways, you can drop your bags off at the train station lockers yourself on your last day in the morning, they don't cost much and then you can just go collect them on your way to your train when you leave DLP.

We've always flown to DLP as we find it easier from birmingham. Catch the early flight at 6am, always get a taxi at cdg drop our cases off and been in Magic Kingdom by 10am.

me too, love the first flight of the day (we go from Luton), in the parks for opening time, and a nice evening flight home on our last day, it really helps make the most of your time at DLP.

Disney Express not worth it.

Pay 11 Euros per room (not per person) on the day you check out, and the hotel will take your bags to the station for you. Much better value.

does that work for the indirect Eurostar Gill? I've only ever used it for the direct Eurostar, as I understand it the Disney Express luggage area at the train station isn't open all day, just at set hours.

Yes. Doesn't matter what time your train is or whether it is direct or not. There is always someone there and they will open the shutters for you to collect your bags.

We live in the North Midlands and have always driven or gone via eurostar. I love not having to worry about baggage allowance, pushchairs, transfers. However we haven't booked our transport for next year yet (been waiting to see what transpires in Calais tbh) so we may consider flying if the price is right.
