New Year disruption for Eurostar services

29 Dec 2015 by Jenny Southan

On January 6-7, no Eurostar services will operate to Brussels Midi. Instead, they will only run to Lille Europe and there will be an amended timetable.

For those travelling from London St Pancras to Brussels Midi on the evening of January 5 at 1934, train 9158 will instead terminate at Lille Europe.

Those already booked on this train will be re-booked on train 9148 departing at 1704. The alternative is to change your reservation free of charge to a different date or receive a full refund upon cancellation.

Eurostar says: “You have up to 60 days to exchange or refund your tickets, however we strongly advise that you do so before Sunday the January 3.”

Those booked to Brussels Midi on January 6 or 7 will have to change their travel dates or cancel for a refund.

People travelling to Lille Europe will also experience disruption over these dates. On January 6, the 9116 and 9158 trains from London St Pancras have been cancelled, as well as the 9113 and 9149 services from Lille Europe.

On January 7, the 9116 from London St Pancras has been cancelled, as have the 9113 and 9149 from Lille Europe.

Eurostar says: “If you are booked to travel between London St Pancras and Lille Europe on one of these cancelled trains we have automatically re-accommodated you on to the next available train as shown below in the table.

“If this is acceptable to you, please go to the manual check-in at least 60 minutes before the new train departure time, where we will issue you with your new coach and seat details.”
