Why doesn t Eurostar allow dogs?

There are a number of considerations and implications for transporting pets and in the interests of the comfort and safety of our customers, crews and animals we don't accept any pets on our services. Eurostar is not registered as a carrier of pets and therefore, we're unfortunately unable to make any exceptions.
