More productive than flying, more flexible than anything else. Here's why the Eurostar is the smart choice for business travel.
On a 2-hour Eurostar journey, you get roughly 2 hours of productive working time — from the moment you sit down to the moment you arrive. Wi-Fi, power, a proper table, and enough space to open a laptop comfortably. Compare that to flying: you lose time during takeoff, landing, taxiing, and the seatbelt-sign phases. A 1-hour flight gives you maybe 30 minutes of usable work time.
Business Premier tickets are fully flexible — change or cancel at no cost. The 10-minute check-in window means you can make last-minute schedule changes without missing your train. If you miss your train entirely, board the next one. Try doing that with an airline.
Business Premier includes access to the Eurostar lounge at St Pancras — a quiet space with complimentary food, drinks, champagne, Wi-Fi, and newspapers. It's a productive pre-departure environment and a genuine perk. See our Lounge Access guide for details.
St Pancras is in central London. Gare du Nord is in central Paris. Brussels-Midi is in central Brussels. No airport transfers, no taxi queues, no navigating suburban transit. You arrive where the meetings are.
Eurostar offers corporate booking accounts with benefits including:
For companies with regular Eurostar travel, a corporate account can save both money and administrative time.
Frequent business travellers should join the Eurostar loyalty programme. Points are earned on every journey and can be redeemed for free tickets, upgrades, and lounge access. The top tier (Carte Blanche) includes lounge access on every journey regardless of ticket class.
