Book online for the easiest and most affordable way to reserve travel by train between Brussels and London. This is an excellent choice for international passengers; just pick up your tickets at the station or have them mailed to you. To book train travel from Brussels to London, call Rail Europe at (888) 382-RAIL or visit the link below.
Be flexible, or not. Flexible tickets on Eurostar cost more, but allow you to exchange or refund the ticket within two months if you decide not to make the trip to London.
Throw away your return ticket. If you plan to travel one way from Brussels to London, you'll need to book a return trip, unless you want to shell out the extra cash for a business premier ticket, which will run you way more than a round-trip.
Pick up your tickets. After-hours counters are open for immediate departures only. Use the intuitive self-service machines from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Check in at least 30 minutes early, unless you have purchased a Premier ticket. Just insert your ticket in the slot at the gate and wait for it to be returned. You're checked in and may pass through the gate.
Register larger items. Say you want to bring your bike or your surfboard from Brussels to London and you don't have the extra hands to carry it, then you can register it for a small fee and pick it up within 24 hours at your destination.
Mind the gap. Transfer to London's underground tube for an easy way to travel to just about anywhere you need to go.
Pick up some pounds. Exchange your money at the train station with reasonable rates, or use one of the convenient ATMs to gain some pounds.
Share a cab. A delightful London quirk is the ability to share cabs with perfect strangers to wherever you go without worrying about getting ripped off. Not only will you save money, but you may also make some new friends.
