"Many crew members and avid cruisers can tell you about seeing 'pier runners' sprinting down the dock only to watch in horror as their ship pulls up its gangway and sails off into the sunset without them."

Consumer protection for Eurostar passengers is significantly weaker than for airline passengers, who benefit from extensive EU regulations regarding delays and cancellations.

The practice of airlines overbooking flights is routine, especially during peak seasons. They sell more tickets than seats, banking on no-shows.
