Any Eurostar Paris deals?

Planning to travel to Paris on Eurostar in mid-March (2 adult and 1 child). Looking for train tickets only. Any deals around?

Thanks!

  • https://www.airmiles.co.uk sounds odd a airline site selling EUROSTAR tickets but they do. Click on the EUROSTAR link on the left of the home page and pick your seat.

    Recommend 1st class leisure, not always that much more expensive than standard if you pick the right train and the food is excellent.

    Sipping champagne as you travel through the French countryside as the sun sets is magical.

    But is it any cheaper than going to the Eurostar weebsite?

    Anyhow the only way I know to cut the cost of Eurostar tickets is to pretend not to be British. This involves removing the cookies that Eurostar installs on your machine & when you go back into the Eurostar website say you are American, French or Belgian instead of British & repeating the process for each different country

    The website always has an option to allow you to see all the possible fares so it's easy to work out which, when converted to GBP, is the cheapest.

    The only caveat is that sometimes the cheapest fares aren't available for the time & date (or even nationality) you want to travel so you might have to change nationality to get the cheapest tickets
