Airlines like Ryan Air and Easy Jet offer rock bottom fares on flights from London to Paris and other cities. These fares will definitely be cheaper than the rates offered by Eurostar, but there is more to it than just the basic transportation costs. A Eurostar train will transport you directly from St. Pancras Station in central London to Gare du Nord station in the heart of Paris in 2 hours 15 minutes.

On the other hand, if you’re travelling by air, you will need to consider the additional transportation costs to and from the airport in London and Paris. Since the airports in London and Paris are located on the outskirts of the respective cities, you will incur additional costs for that commute.

You will also have to factor in the extra time for check-in and security check before your flight at the airport and the general hassle of the overall experience. In contrast, with Eurostar, you need only arrive at the station 30 minutes before the scheduled time of departure. All these factors considered, a journey by air may just turn out to be as expensive as a train journey. Taking the Eurostar will also be much quicker and more hassle free.

Another advantage of travelling by Eurostar is that you get to enjoy the scenic countryside of southern England and northern France. Meals and refreshments are served on board Eurostar and you can find a selection of magazines and newspapers that will help you pass the time. Overall it is a journey that you will enjoy. However, if you still prefer to fly, there is no shortage of cheap discounted fares for London Paris flights.

London Paris Train or Eurostar Train is the best option to explore Eurostar European Connections. It is always advised to check for Cheap Eurostar Tickets before doing Eurostar Reservation
