People will be able to travel by train and plane using one ticket after a partnership was announced between Eurostar and airline alliance SkyTeam, which includes Air France-KLM.
Travellers will be able to book long and medium-haul flights combined with a train journey on board Eurostar in a single reservation.
Bookings are expected to open during the first half of 2025.
The partnership will enable people to travel in a more sustainable way, SkyTeam said in a statement.
“Working with Eurostar as our first non-airline partner underscores SkyTeam’s commitment to delivering a more integrated and responsible travel experience by incorporating intermodal travel,” said its CEO Patrick Roux.

“Offering travellers the choice to see Europe in the most sustainable and convenient way by rail is a key component of Eurostar’s vision for growth,” said Eurostar CEO Gwendoline Cazenave.
“We are creating a future where travellers can connect between Eurostar trains, domestic railways and long haul flying.”
