Eurotunnel

We are going to Paris from 10th May to 16th May which works out at around £160 for a return Eurotunnel ticket.

However if I book two short stay tickets; a 10th May return 11th May and a 15th May return 16th May this works out at £106.

Does anyone know if it is possible to do this? Or do they monitor your travel at all?

Thank you in advance.

    Using only the return portion of a ticket may not be possible as they may cancel the whole ticket if the outward portion is not used.

    The ferry companies usually have clauses that if the return portions of fares are not used they will charge you the difference between what you paid and the single fare. I'm not sure if Eurotunnel does the same but I wouldn't be surprised. Have you checked the T&C?

    Just had a look, you are right it invalidates the ticket: :(

    1.1 Your booking is only valid for the booked departure time and the vehicle type stated .
    Failure to complete both the outward and return journeys in respect of a return booking will invalidate your booking and in the event that you complete only one journey in respect of a return booking, you will be liable to pay the difference between the price that you paid for your return booking and the single fare applicable at the time that your journey was made. Eurotunnel reserves the right to obtain from you payment in full for all sums so arising. All travel must be completed within 1 calendar year of the date of original purchase.
