Eurostar Strikes

[mrsbenny]

They have offered to change my train to a Paris direct one so I am going to do that after they announce the cancelled ones for Monday.

Are you booked on the direct train or indirect to Lille?

The cancellations for Monday are now on the Eurostar website if you need to check. Hope your train is ok.

I’m on the indirect one and it’s cancelled. Going to book onto a Paris one hopefully.

On hold for over an hour, then the woman from
Eurostar told me I’m on the 10.14 train and will go to gard de Nord. Honestly she didn’t have a clue! An hour and a half later I’m still no further forward! I tried to explain to her we weren’t on that train but she insisted we have been moved but still get off at Lille, get another train to Paris then get the RER!

We are now on the 7.01 train London - Paris. Fingers crossed they leave that rain alone! That was done via Twitter, much more helpful than the call centre.

We arrived yesterday on the Eurostar. Was supposed to be direct but stopped at Ebbsfleet, Ashford and then went via Lille and stopped there too. Not many passengers got on at each of them though. Then onwards to termination at DLP Marne.

Staying at Sequoia Lodge and had the attached under our door this morning (if I can figure out how to post a photo!)

Yes, strike days the train is departing and going to Paris station. We are going on Monday as supposed to be an indirect train getting off and changing at Lille. We decided to swap to a Paris direct one so hoping that isn’t cancelled.

The direct train always stops at those stations! You weren't affected as yesterday wasn't a strike day. On the strike days the direct train is arriving and departing from Paris, Eurostar are sorting everyone out with RER tickets to get you there
