Eurostar is accelerating into the future with the introduction of a new fleet of 17 modern, re-engineered trains and
exciting, new destinations in the South of France. For over 20 years, whisking passengers between the European
capitals of London, Paris and Brussels continues to be quick, easy and comfortable on the famed “Chunnel” train.
RAIL EUROPE
After two decades of leading the way in high-
speed train travel, the time has come to breathe new
life into the Eurostar fleet. Rolling out towards the
end of 2015 and into 2016, the new e300 and e320
trains have been engineered and designed with you in
mind. Look forward to sleek interiors created by
Italian design-house Pininfarina, along with
ergonomically designed seats, free Wi-Fi and eco-
friendly upgrades.
Business Premier Class is for the discerning
traveler looking to experience the finer things in life.
With a dedicated ticket office and exclusive lounge
access, your journey will start off on the right track.
On board you will enjoy spacious seating with
generous legroom, while being served a Chef
Raymond Blanc three-course meal at your seat. As an
added-value bonus, Business Premier tickets are fully
refundable and exchangeable.
From London, venture to Avignon in less than six
hours so you can explore the lavender fields of
Provence, marvel at the Palais de Papes and savor the
delicacies of Provençal gastronomy. Lyon can be
reached by train in just a little over 4 ½ hours. The
capital of the Rhône-Alpes region, Lyon is rich in
culture and is an UNESCO World Heritage Site
where you can indulge in Lyonnaise cuisine at a
typical “bouchon.” The Mediterranean port city of
Marseille is a 6 ½ hour journey on Eurostar. Upon
arrival, you’ll want to jump right in and start
exploring France’s second largest city, from sun-
drenched beaches to ancient monuments, cathedrals
and fortresses.
Remember, train travel is more than getting from
one place to another. It’s a destination unto itself.
From rail tickets and passes to city transportation
cards and sightseeing excursions, Rail Europe is your
