My Eurostar journey is a little more than six months away so I’m cognisant passholder reservations may not have opened.

However, when searching for station names on the Belgian Railways’ site, it doesn’t bring up ‘London’.  In contrast, it displays ‘Lille’.

Is there some problem with the website?

There are different booking forms on that website, you have to use the correct one.

For interrail/eurail passholder reservations for Eurostar and Thalys it is https://www.b-europe.com/EN/Booking/Pass#TravelWish

For passholder reservations for French domestic TGV/IC it is https://travel.b-europe.com/Eurail-GE/en/booking-tgv#TravelWish

Thank you!

As one who’s travelled by rail in many nations, the Europeans need to work on making passholder reservations simpler, although I acknowledge that when some rail operators such as SNCF and RENFE intensely dislike each other (amazing!), tasks like this can be challenging.

Well it’s already incredible that there’s a pass covering most of Europe for 50 years !

But I agree that it could be better. Some companies really dislike Eurail/Interrail like RENFE and SNCF :/
