Uk Passport Holders: Can They Travel To France? | QuartzMountain
Getting to France is half the fun. The Eurostar is a dream—zip from London to Paris in 2.5 hours, no airport chaos. Just remember: arrive 45-60 minutes early for check-in and don’t bring a massive suitcase unless you enjoy wrestling it up narrow train aisles. Pro tip: sit on the left side of the train for the best views of the French countryside as you emerge from the tunnel.
If you’re flying, budget airlines like Ryanair and EasyJet are your friends. But they’re frenemies. Check your baggage allowance twice. Nothing says “holiday fail” like paying £40 for a slightly-too-big carry-on. And please, print your boarding pass—some airports are still oddly anti-digital. Flying into smaller airports like Beauvais (Paris’s sad cousin) saves money but adds a 90-minute bus ride. Plan accordingly.
Driving the Eurotunnel or taking a ferry is also brilliant, especially if you’re bringing the family or a dog. Just remember: drive on the right. I know, it’s shocking. You’ll spend the first hour blinking like a confused owl. Stick a “keep right” sticker on your dashboard if you have to.
