High up in the 19th-century edifice that forms the front of the Gare du Nord in Paris, Eurostar has found a new, grand perch. The referendum came in an already difficult year for Eurostar, with bookings dropping away after terrorist attacks in Paris and Brussels. “The economies of London, Paris and Brussels are more integrated than they have ever been.”However, Petrovic has said in the past that he sees no upside to Brexit. One Eurostar passenger, a UK-based French designer called Hiba, travels regularly between London and Paris for work and to see family, but says she is thinking of moving back to France. He is not alone: the number of London to Paris flights is in decline, even at the financial district’s neighbouring airport, London City.
