Eurostar restarts direct Disneyland Paris train routes – with bargain fares on sale
EUROSTAR is restarting their direct train routes to Disneyland Paris from the UK from tomorrow.
The relaunched routes, which were paused during the pandemic, mean families can once again travel from London St Pancras to the theme park without having to change.
The journey takes just two hours and 49 minutes, making it an easy option for Brits not wanting to fly.
Not only do travellers not have to abide by strict weight restrictions or liquid rules, but passengers get a generous baggage allowance too.
Kids under four even travel for free.
The routes will run four times a week, going up to five times a week during the summer, and then daily routes during all the school holidays.

Francois Le Doze, chief commercial officer with Eurostar, said: “We are excited to resume our direct Disney service this Friday, as we know how much families value being able to travel with ease and speed from the heart of London to the gates of Disneyland Paris.
“This is another positive step on our road to recovery as we continue to increase the frequency of services across all of our core routes.”
Fares are available for just £39 each way for adults and £28 each way for kids, although these are with limited availability.
The cheapest we could find were fares for £48 each way if travelling in June, with £41 fares in September.
