Enjoy a cocktail while you wait

EUROSTAR, the high-speed rail service linking the UK and mainland Europe, will be treating Business Premier passengers to a new range of winter cocktails to enjoy whilst relaxing in the Paris lounge.

Designed by the London Cocktail Club, the bespoke cocktails encapsulate Eurostar’s heritage, reminiscent of both British and French cultures. Featuring a range of French spirits such as pastis and Côtes de Provence rosé and typical British ingredients such as cucumber juice and fresh rosemary, the drinks are sure to suit tastes on either side of the Channel.Designed by global architects, Softroom, the Paris lounge has transformed the travel experience for Business Premier passengers. 

Situated on the top floor of the original 19th century building, and featuring high ceilings, marble fireplaces, a cocktail bar and intimate snug spaces, the lounge captures the spirit of a Parisian apartment.

On the rails . . .

EUROTUNNEL welcomed the 25 millionth truck to use its Le Shuttle Freight service on the 17th March since the service began on 25 July 1994. 

This 25 millionth truck, from the fleet operated by UPS, the express courier specialist, was carrying packages from Germany, many containing items such as clothing, shoes or electronics purchased the previous day via the Internet. 

The rapid growth in e-commerce, between 20-30% per annum, shows how essential the Channel Tunnel has become in the transport and logistics infrastructure linking the United Kingdom to continental Europe. Approximately one million e-commerce packages transit via the Channel Tunnel every day.
