Did you know...?
- In 2011, 92.5% of Eurostar trains reached their destination on time or with no more than a fifteen-minute delay, whereas commercial flights were only able to achieve 65-70%. Travel by train from central London to central Paris is faster than a flight, and at the same time more comfortable. It is not surprising that the Eurostar took more than 70% of the air transport market.
- Eurostar commissioned an independent study to estimate emissions of carbon dioxide emissions. It turned out that the train journey from London to Paris releases 11 kg of carbon dioxide per passenger to the atmosphere, a result which is more than 90% better than an airline flight on the same route, where the amount of CO2 per passenger is 122 kg. In addition, aircraft emit carbon dioxide into the upper atmosphere, which is more damaging to the environment.
