‘Eurostar For Business’ platform launches to support business travel

New tool offers multiple benefits for business bookings

Eurostar, the high-speed rail link between the UK and mainland Europe, is launching an exclusive new booking platform for business travellers. In a first for Eurostar, the new portal has been designed with business travel in mind, offering organisations of any size a seamless start to their travel experience with all bookings easily accessible in one place.

For every 15 bookings each company makes, free upgrades or tickets are unlocked for the next trip so that those that travel more frequently can experience higher classes of service and help their travel budgets go further.

• An upgrade to Standard Premier is offered after every 15 return trips in Standard class
• An upgrade to Business Premier is offered after every 15 return trips in Standard Premier
• A free Business Premier ticket is offered after 15 return trips are booked in Business Premier

Find out more about Eurostar’s classes of service at eurostar.com

Businesses simply sign up for a single account using a company email address. Once registered, account admins can book travel on their colleagues’ behalf or individual employees can manage their own bookings. A single dashboard shows all bookings in one place, making it easy to track budgets or make changes to existing bookings.

Organisations signed up to the portal will also gain access to tailored content as well as exclusive promotional fares, ensuring they are being rewarded for choosing Eurostar for their business trips. There are 400 eVouchers worth £25 available to the first companies to sign up.¹

Travellers can also sign up to the Club Eurostar rewards scheme, allowing them to earn points from their business bookings which can be redeemed for planning personal trips or upgrades.

The new platform is available now at eurostar.com/uk-en/eurostar-for-business.

About Eurostar

• Eurostar is the high-speed train service linking St Pancras International, Paris, Brussels, Lille, Disneyland Resort Paris, Rotterdam and Amsterdam. 
• Eurostar was established in 1994 as a partnership between three railway companies: SNCF, SNCB and LCR (London and Continental Railways). On 1 September 2010, Eurostar became a single, unified corporate entity owned by three shareholders: SNCF, SNCB and LCR. LCR’s holding was transferred to the Treasury in 2014, and sold by the UK government to a consortium comprising Caisse de Depot et Placement du Quebec (CDPQ) and Hermes Infrastructure on 28th May 2015. 
• Eurostar is a founder member of Railteam, a partnership between Europe’s leading high-speed train operators that is developing simpler ways to book and travel on the fast-expanding, European high-speed rail network. 
• Eurostar and Eurotunnel are entirely separate companies.  Eurostar operates high-speed passenger trains, while Eurotunnel operates vehicle shuttle services and the Channel Tunnel itself. Eurostar is Eurotunnel’s biggest customer.
