Eurostar time getting on and getting off?

Question

Hi I am planning in a couple of weeks to be coming back from the west indies to paris and from paris to take a train to Brussels. The plane gets in at 6am, so what I am wondering is how long do I need to leave. Theres a cheap train at 9.17am, would that be enough time to get from CDG airport to the Eurostar or Thalys station?

Also from Burssels I will be traveling back home to England, on the Eurostar again. From Waterloo how long should I leave that from arrival time? To getting on a national rail train down to Devon.

Answer 1

Can't answer the first part of your question about Paris - except to say it will be a Thalys train you want - Eurostar doesn't go from Paris to Brussels. You will want the Gare du Nord, however.

You are fortunate in London in that currently, but not for much longer but within your timescale, Eurostar trains arrive at Waterloo. From that station you can get a South West Trains service to East Devon and Exeter. You need not allow a great deal of time at all, therefore, between arrival and departure - it will really depend on the time your Eurostar gets in and the next Exeter departure.
