Buying Eurostar Tickets Direct
 
There was once a thread on subject title in which Ben Haines provided an internet addresses that one can use to buy tickets as against getting them from Raileurope (US, much higher price) but can't seem to pull that thread. Also, a number was provided by another contributor which connects to Eurostar London. Does anybody have the info? Calling Ben Haines, please help. Thanks.

website is www.eurostar.co.uk<BR>You can purchase online and pickup at station before traveling. I usually pick mine up when I first arrive so if something unforseen happens the day of travel I have them in hand. Have done this several times, and also called the number on the website in London and booked over the phone also. I had the tickets mailed to me as my trip was a couple of months away. It is really easy to just pick them up at the eurostar counter in London. I checked the site and there is a rate of 59gbp round trip standard class London-Paris with a 2 night or Sat. night stay. It is easy to click straight through to the first class rates unless you notice the place on the lower left of the page and click on standard. Hope this is helpful to you. Love to take the Eurostar.

Thanks everyone. Ben, what about the number/e-mail address of the company in London where you can get eurostar tickets? As I can remember, they will aso deliver to your hotel in London.
