Arrived just before 11. Moved forward to 12.22 train from 13.22 . No queues at any point of check in. Terminal deserted. Now boarding 11.52 I think

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Besides a bottleneck, they are also superb little family run restaurants based in Lyon, for those of us that come to France not only to but enjoy the local cuisine

Came home Monday - arrived at Calais around 10:40 for a 12:47 train, with a little trepidation as I was ever so slightly ahead of the advised 10:47 checkin opening, having previously been turned away (at Folkestone) for arriving ahead of schedule. No isseus at all though - Like others, I was bumped onto an earlier train, 11:17 in this case. No queues at the passport booths, only four cars behind me when loading, the top deck was not loaded.

Maybe a stupid question but if they say you can't get an earlier one do they still let you in or do you need to reverse out... potentially forcing the car behind to reverse and more?
I suspect that the new terms are there just to give them more options when it gets busy

@Rob_Quads, there's an exit back to "outside" just after the check-in booths, been directed out once when we were early and it was a busy day

@Rob_Quads, we had the same experience as @Boris, hence trepidation this time.

Not usually just have to and park but obviously if busy space might be limited.
We turned up.this morning at 5. 45 for a 7.47 but got on the 7.17 no charge , best run down ever i think, left sunny wilts at 3 am, bit foggy in placex till Andover but clear after , and not one set of road works with a 50 limit must be a first, 110 miles to go to Geneva now ten minutes utes under 11 hours since we left home 585 miles covered so far. I reckon with the time waiting at Gatwick k we would beat flying and coach transfer this time, from.bristol plane might just win

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

To be fair, there isn't much to have trepidation, just go to some services and wait it out.
Only happened to me once many years ago. I think we had to kill an hour.
Bit frustrating but clearly we'd just had a good run on the road and were ahead of schedule. What you'd do if you were flying for example.
