We don’t usually cover trains, but Eurostar earns its place on WingTips for one simple reason: it’s a transfer partner with American Express Membership Rewards. That, and the fact that if you’ve got the Amex Platinum Card, you can saunter into the Eurostar lounge at St Pancras International like you own the tracks. And now Eurostar has a sale where you can get tickets at 50% off.
