Since noone has come up with the current market share for Eurostar between London and Paris/Brussels I have emailed the Eurostar press office to ask the question. It was well over 50% some years ago.
Even taking out the enormous number of transit passengers to Schipol who are choosing onward flights with Air France/KLM, this is massive market for Eurostar to tap into.
Incidentally, I see they are running a 'footie special' to Lille quite soon. OK so its for the Rugby, but it's good to see Eurostar are at last seeking to win traffic outside their core service.
