Thursday, 2 October 20143 min read

Eurostar has announced a new year-round service to Geneva via Lille, in partnership with international high-speed train service TGV Lyria.

On sale from next week (October 9), the inaugural service leaves London St Pancras on December 14.

It means passengers can travel from London to Geneva in just over six hours, with services specially timed to ensure a fast transfer between the two trains.

The service also has onward connections to Aigle, Martigny, Sion, Sierre, Visp and Brig.

Eurostar commercial director Nick Mercer said: “With city-centre to city-centre travel and a generous baggage allowance, the new offer proposes an attractive alternative to flying."

Return fares start from £116.
