Eurostar has told passengers due to travel from Paris to London to do so only if “absolutely necessary”.

Ongoing industrial action by French customs officers forced Eurostar to cancel four trains on Sunday (March 17).


It has pre-emptively cancelled another eight trains between Monday and Wednesday (March 18-20).


On Monday, the 7.04am and 8.37am Paris Gare du Nord to St Pancras trains were cancelled, and the 9.03pm Paris to Ebbsfleet International and St Pancras service.


The same 7.04am and 9.03pm services have been cancelled on Tuesday, and the 7.04am, 8.37am and 9.03pm on Wednesday.


Passengers can change their tickets free of charge for a different date and/or departure time, or claim a full refund.
