Extra luggage
If your bags are over 85cm long or you want to take more than your allowance, you’ll need to use EuroDespatch, our registered luggage service. You can send items up to 2m long from London, Paris, Lille and Brussels.
Exceptions to the rule
- Golf bags up to 120 x 35 x 35cm count as part of your luggage allowance
- Skis or a snowboard are included on top of your normal two-bag allowance on the direct ski train
Can I send my luggage on ahead of me?
Yes, you can send your luggage up to a week before you travel, then collect it when you arrive. We’ll keep it at the luggage office in Paris, Lille, Brussels or London for 14 days.
Is the registered luggage service available at all Eurostar stations?
No, unfortunately, we can’t accept any registered items, or those over 85cm long, to or from Ashford, Ebbsfleet, Calais, Disneyland® Paris, Lyon, Avignon, Marseille, Rotterdam, Amsterdam or any of our ski destinations.
