Any of you use the Eurostar? was looking for a break and noticed you can travel for a little as £66 rtn if you are under 26 otherwise its £69 rtn. Cheaper than flying and possibly faster they claim lon-paris 2h 12 and brussels 1h 51 If you travel business premier you get lounge access at the stations and even have a loyalty progarm just like the airlines. xx
Don't often use it, as I need one way connections generally and then it costs a lot more.
Business Premier is nice, though, airline type meal bundled in the ticket proce (or was last time I used it.)

@ Beckyboop
Have been on 4-5 times in the last year and it's really good. The service in premier isn't what it used to be (food etc etc) but I guess it's a way for them to make sure that their costs etc is in check. If you get one of the lowest fares it's deffo value for money and immigration is super quick and you get from city centre to city centre. Highly recommended.

Thanks Carlton, can you take your own food and stuff onboard also do they have luggage limits? I am looking at going out Friday lunchtime from work and come to back monday morning and going straight to work and with 20 trains to paris every day should work fine ;) xx

Yes, you can take your own food on board, they also have a bistro car, IIRC.
