IT’S A RECORD BREAKER FOR EUROTUNNEL LE SHUTTLE

28/07/2011

As the Summer holidays got underway, Eurotunnel Le Shuttle passengers travelled in their tens of thousands through the Channel Tunnel during a record breaking weekend.

Last weekend, 216 Eurotunnel Le Shuttles carried almost 25,000 vehicles through the Channel Tunnel, the highest number ever recorded.

With prices starting at just £44 per car, a journey time of just 35 minutes and the flexibility to pack everything they need, not forgetting the family pets, into their car; holidaymakers have chosen Eurotunnel Le Shuttle as their transport method, making it the number one choice for motorists crossing the channel.

Jo Willacy, Commercial Director of Eurotunnel Le Shuttle said of this new record, “We are delighted that our passengers have taken control of their holiday experience and are using their cars to explore all that Europe has to offer. With no supplements for luggage, credit cards, or extra travellers, our passengers know that the price they see is the price they pay. Having no hidden extras plays an important part in planning a family holiday”.

Notes to Editors:

  • Taking your car to the Continent with Eurotunnel Le Shuttle offers you complete travel independence and lets you take control. We are the fastest cross-Channel operator by car, with a crossing time of just 35 minutes. Our fare structures offer great value, giving you cheaper fares when you plan ahead and travel at quieter times. We also offer up to four departures per hour, motorway to motorway access at each end, no baggage restrictions or fuel supplements, and a ticket covers one car and up to nine passengers.
  • Eurotunnel Le Shuttle is the most environmentally-friendly cross-Channel operator. The company has won a host of awards for its wide-ranging policy dedicated to reducing its carbon footprint and protecting the environment
