Getting extremely sick of the service on le shuttle, 20 minute delay yet again on this service, no announcements, toilets are discussing, my wife opened the door and walked away, boat is more relaxing and from my past 5 experiences a lot more reliable, and less than half the money, boat from now on for me .

THE FAST ROUTE ACROSS THE CHANNEL

Simply, it is easy, check in, wait for call on the big screens, drive to boarding lanes and drive onto the train. Half an hour or so drive off again.
Pity it is more expensive than the ferries but wilh so many departures it is convenient.
Booking is relatively easy for an 80 year old. Check in screens are easy and staff are always friendly.

Outgoing trip was fine.

Outgoing trip was fine.
Return trip delayed .
Loaded in wagon 18 of train you canidentify, the live safety voice announcement was so quiet unable tohear and therefore useless. Followed by a second announcement broken up by static and inaudible.
A janitor arrived during the return trip to service toilets, he opened the cabinet to replace a toilet roll, and appeared to use a preused cloth to wipe down the surfaces, then placed this cloth into his bag and moved to the next wagon. These toilets have aged more than the wagons, this wagon had more patches than the local roads.

Easy online booking

Easy online booking. Arrive in plenty of time and collect the boarding card with your specific departure code, park, use the facilities, when your number is up, follow the signs to embark. No hassle - so simple - no stress. 35ish minutes later you’re on the other side of the channel, disembark and off you go. Just remember to drive on the wrong side of the road!

Great Service by Tunnel Staff

The whole process from arrival to departure is done with ease and a slick process. Arrived early for the booking and was offered an earlier train at no additional cost.
Food outlets are expensive and food quality poor. Wouldn't recommend arriving hungry. Even Starbucks is far more expensive than a high st Starbucks and they have a captive audience
