Eurostar flash sale – how to get cheap tickets to Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels, Rotterdam and Lille

Eurostar has announced a new sale – this time for cheap winter and spring 2026 fares

A new Eurostar sale means you can get cheap Eurostar tickets at £35 each way for trips booked this month, for travel between 19 January and 25 March 2026.

But you'll need to act fast, as Eurostar says these cheaper tickets have limited availability. The sale begins 6 January and will end on 12 January 2026.

We were able to find plenty of £35 tickets on sale, and they weren't all at ridiculously early or late times either. Just bear in mind that you’ll need to book a return to get the lowest prices.

To browse the sale tickets, head to the new year sale page on the Eurostar website.

However, if you’re able to hold off a little longer, it could be worth waiting to book your trip during the next flash sale. We’ve seen tickets going for as low as £27 one-way in previous flash sales.

When is the next flash sale?

Eurostar has not yet announced dates for its next flash sale – only the new year/spring 2026 sale. The last flash sale happened in early November. 

Looking for cheap off-season Eurostar tickets?

If you’re planning to travel in April rather than during the sale period, we found some midweek fares for as little as £39 one way. 

There are plenty of Friday and Saturday departures still available during the Easter period, but you'll have to travel in the evening to secure the lowest prices. For instance, we found a £44 ticket to Paris on Saturday 4 April at 20.01. Then you could return on Monday 6 April at 09.02 in the morning for £65, bringing the journey total to £109.

Are the Eurostar sale ticket prices a good deal right now?

It depends on when you plan to travel and how soon you need to book.

While the new year sale tickets are a good price at £35 each way, if you want to travel later in the year, keep an eye out for more flash sales.

The lowest price we've ever seen for tickets in a flash sale is £27, and the lowest-priced tickets in November’s flash sale were £29 each way.

When can I travel with the Eurostar cheap ticket deal?

Book to travel from London between 19 January and 25 March 2026. Some dates are excluded – check the Eurostar website for more information.
