Eurostar has sought to offer reassurance over concerns about the new rules (Image: PA) Eurostar passengers from the UK face being fingerprinted twice when travelling to the continent in accordance with new rules set to be introduced in the autumn - but the company has offered reassurances that it “won’t turn into a s***-show” at St Pancras. The new Entry and Exit System (EES), which is due to be introduced on October 6, will mean people travelling from London will be required to undergo a five-step check-in process, providing two sets of fingerprint and mugshots and answering a number of questions on the nature of their trip The regulations will be particularly visible at St Pancras, Calais, and Folkestone because in all three cases, the French border is on UK soil. There have been concerns about the prospect of passengers needing to turn up two hours in advance, much like at an airport, which would spell the end for “turn up and go” and potentially result in lengthy queues.
