Overview
- Normal service resumed Wednesday morning, with Eurostar planning to operate all trains but warning of possible last‑minute delays or cancellations.
- Tuesday’s suspension followed a power‑supply fault in the Channel Tunnel and the stoppage of a Le Shuttle vehicle shuttle.
- Getlink led cable repairs and a phased reopening from mid‑afternoon, alternating movements in both directions and confirming no trains were trapped in the tunnel.
- At least 25 Eurostar services were canceled during the day as thousands faced queues at St Pancras, Gare du Nord and shuttle terminals, with long vehicle lines at Folkestone and Calais.
- Eurostar offers free exchanges, 12‑month e‑vouchers or refunds processed in about 28 days, and will reimburse reasonable expenses for stranded passengers (hotels up to £150/€170 per room per night, taxis up to £50/€60 per trip, meals up to £35/€40 per person per day).
