Eurostar Group announces sales for the brand-new Eurostar Snow service leaving from London to the Alps via Lille Europe. From just *£99, ski and snowboard enthusiasts can head to the pistes by making a quick and easy connection in Lille before continuing their journey on a Eurostar continental train.

The new service offers customers a hassle-free and sustainable alternative to flying with more stops in the Alps than ever before. Eurostar Snow will whisk travellers to top ski resorts, such as Chambéry, Albertville, Moutiers, and Aime-La Plagne, before arriving in Bourg-Saint-Maurice as its final destination.
