Euro Tunnel Coach Booking Facility

20 Jul 2022

Internal issues affecting available space on trains, a temporary curtailment of P&O ferries operations, and border issues have affected the speed passengers can be verified.  This led to the abrupt withdrawal of the coach operators online booking facility in May.

The service was replaced by an email address through which to request a booking from July, using newly released steeply increased tariffs for the period from July to 4th September 2022.

Euro Tunnel online booking facility should be reinstated for reservations from 1st September with operators having the ability to make bookings 60 days in advance.  There is no assurance of there not being a future withdrawal of the booking system.
