3 Very flexible if you turn up early they will get you on the next available train. We arrived 3 hours early prepared to wait but went on next train.

4 Sorry don't know.

The tunnel is fab and so easy, we have done the same with Tesco vouchers and will be bookign soon. Heading for Germany for the first time.

Enjoy!

When I've booked with the tunnel in the past the 6pm sailings have been a bit cheaper than the earlier ones so I tend to book those knowing that I can turn up earlier and if there's space we'll be able to get away a couple of hours earlier at no extra charge. We've never had time to look at the shops there, usually when we arrive we're given the choice of the next train so just drive straight to the departure point, use the toilets then it's time to drive onto the train.

Sometimes I check the website the night before traveling to see what the availability's like to see how early we might get away. The only time this didn't work was when the French seamen went on strike during our journey to the tunnel so by the time we arrived the trains were full of cancelled ferry travellers but we got away on our booked crossing.
