Allow pets on the Eurostar
Firstly, it is ridiculously complicated to bring a pet into the UK. I would like the government to try and change the pet policy for the Eurostar. It is not fair that pet owners have to pay £500 simply to bring their pets across the border through the eurotunnel.
I am a student and every time I have to take a train from London to Folkestone, pay an expensive taxi to be able to go onto the eurotunnel, then take another train to Paris from Calais. It’s so expensive and shouldn’t be so complicated. If simply the Eurostar had some terms and conditions but allow pets onboard things would be so much easier and safer for me and many others.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The terms of passage for Eurostar train services are a matter for Eurostar, not the Government or House of Commons.
If you are unhappy with Eurostar's current policy on pets, you should contact them directly about this: www.eurostar.com/uk-en/contact-us/eurostar-contact-details
