Eurostar trains carrying 30% fewer passengers

The boss of Eurostar has said its trains between the UK and Paris are carrying 30% fewer passengers. Eurostar is currently running 14 services per day between London and Paris, compared with 18 in 2019. Last year, Eurostar announced it was halting its direct service from London to Disneyland Paris and also stopped services calling at Ebbsfleet or Ashford International stations. Concerns have been raised that initial registration for the system could cause delays to Eurostar services and lead to queues at the Port of Dover, as under the scheme people entering the bloc from non-EU countries - including the UK - will need to register fingerprints and a photo with their passport details. On Tuesday, Eurostar announced its new brand which involved a merger between Thalys and Eurostar and said it hopes to carry 30 million passengers a year by 2030.
