Byway expands distribution through TUI retail partnership The partnership reflects growing demand for non-flight options and brings overland travel to a broader retail audience.

Great to see that TUI have partnered with Byway - recognising the growing demand for low carbon travel by train www.phocuswire.com/news/distrib...

Column | Driving to the Alps in an EV is Easier Than you Think Range anxiety and worries about snow-handling might once have put people off. But “going electric” is easier than ever, says Iain Martin.

Eurostar to cut boarding times by 30 minutes Waiting at St Pancras has become too much like queueing at an airport, station boss admits

I completely disagree that London St Pancras is 'too much like queueing at an airport', but I welcome shorter check in times.

I usually arrive 40mins before - the 75 mins recommendation given by Eurostar is stupidly early.

Such a shame to see the EES stalls all set up and ready to go at Gare du Nord @Eurostar, but not being used at all - it's just going to be mean bigger queues later on!

The Rail Deal | Ditch the Plane Travel For years Jim Walker had assumed flying to Geneva was “just easier”. But his family’s first train trip to the Alps proved to be a game changer.

How to have a sustainable family ski holiday: take the train and head high Cut out flying and you shred skiing’s carbon footprint. And opting for a high-altitude resort that needs less artificial snow makes it even greener. Les Arcs in the French Alps ticks both boxes
