Eurostar launches huge sale with fares from £35 to Paris for 2022

France holidays are back on the cards for Brits, and thanks to Eurostar you could bag a cheap getaway to Paris.

That's because the high speed rail service has launched a huge sale for 2022, with fares starting from £35 each way to the City of Lights.

There's a generous window of travel dates included too, with the deals valid for journeys between February 21 and May 19, 2022.

The sale includes 48,000 discounted seats, which also encompasses journeys to Lille and Brussels (although it's worth noting that some quarantine rules apply for UK travellers heading to Belgium).

Eurostar is currently running nine daily return services between London and Paris, so there's plenty of choice when it comes to your departure and return journeys too.

You can already book on the Eurostar website but you'll need to do so by February 8 when the sale ends.

France is currently one of the holiday destinations open to Brits, although it does have some strict entry rules for travellers.

At the time of writing, the country is open to fully vaccinated Brits for non-essential travel reasons such as holidays. Double jabbed travellers aged 12 or over will also need to show proof of a negative Covid test taken within 24 hours before departure (this can be a PCR or antigen) and sign a 'sworn statement' to confirm you're not suffering from coronavirus symptoms, or have been in contact with a confirmed case.

Unvaccinated or partially vaccinated travellers will need an essential reason to visit and will also need to meet other entry requirements such as a negative Covid test and self-isolating for 10 days.

It's also worth noting that there are also local Covid rules in place, which include anyone aged 16 or over requiring a 'pass vaccinal' to access venues such as museums, restaurants and more.

To receive this you need to be able to show one of the following; proof of full vaccination, proof of recovery, or proof of medical exemption from vaccination.

Under new EU-wide rules, if your full vaccination course was completed more than 270 days ago, you'll be required to have a booster jab to be considered fully vaccinated.

For children aged 12-15, a 'pass sanitaire' which can be through a negative Covid test to access the likes of restaurants, museums and cinemas.
