Already, in August, the company added 39 trains for journeys between the UK and the continent. And Eurostar is now planning to step up the pace in the autumn. From September, there will be five daily return services between London and Paris. Three other daily return services are also planned on the London-Brussels route, including one extended service to Rotterdam and Amsterdam.
The new transport plan will guarantee greater flexibility for business trips, with the first train arriving in London from Paris at 8.32am and the last train leaving London for Paris at 7.01pm.
" Eurostar (...) is adding routes to its transport plan in response to an increase in demand following the abolition of quarantine measures for fully vaccinated passengers returning from France. "explains the company's management.
