Eurostar has said it will run all services to London, Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam on Sunday following a day of major disruption.
New Year plans for thousands were in ruins after flooding in a tunnel under the River Thames led to the cancellation of all Eurostar services between London and Paris on Saturday.
Anxious passengers spent the day scrambling to find other travel routes.

Many passengers are still facing expensive hotel bills, significant difficulties getting to their destination or costly airfares. The Port of Dover said on Saturday that there was no remaining foot passenger availability for the day.
But in a statement on Saturday evening, which may give some people hope of reviving their New Year’s Eve plans, Eurostar said: “Flooding in the Thames tunnels has been brought under control by Network Rail High Speed meaning at least one tunnel can now be used and a full service can operate.
“There will be some speed restrictions in place in the morning which may lead to delays and stations are expected to be very busy.”
They said customers should visit the Eurostar website for more information on compensation.
