Source - Agent Update from Eurostar

We have been informed that the planned national industrial action in Belgium is still very likely to take place, starting at 22h00 (10pm) this Sunday 29th February and ending at 22h00 (10pm) on Monday 30 January.

During this 24-hour period, public transport will be heavily disrupted and Eurostar and other onward connecting rail services will not operate to or from Brussels during this period.

The 19:04 service from London on Sunday 29 January will terminate at Lille and a bus service will be in place between Lille Europe and Brussels Midi. On Monday, Eurostar we will be running a service to Lille and a bus service will be in place between Lille Europe and Brussels Midi stations.

A revised service will be in operation between the UK and Lille. Services between London and Paris will operate as normal.

Please contact your consultant at WEXAS Travel Management if your plans are affected by this potential disruption.
