World - Virgin Atlantic has become the first airline to implement an e-ticketing agreement with Eurostar, enabling passengers to travel ‘seamlessly’ between London and Paris or Brussels from their flight.
Virgin Atlantic passengers can make a booking on Eurostar at the same time as they book their air ticket via the Virgin Atlantic contact center, which has access to live availability on each high speed train, or through their local travel agent.
"This new agreement gives Virgin Atlantic passengers even more flexibility,” says head of loyalty, Alan Lias.
Eurostar’s director of sales and marketing, Emma Harris, says many of customers making corporate bookings can now take full advantage of these through fares, opening up a host of new travel opportunities.
