What documents do you need? As an American, do you know what paperwork, besides passport is needed?

[@thejackbox]

I took the Inoui TGV to Lille so I could see a part of France outside of Paris and then the Flixbus from there to London. It would have been a fine experience if the toilet didn’t malfunction. I lost smell for a few days afterwards because my nose melted from the foul odor of sewage. Nearly everyone got perfume/cologne on the ferry just to try and cover up the smell to no avail.

Grosse Freude wenn er Hallo zu de Zug sagt! Es hat mich gewunderd dass Ihr aus das Labyrint in Calais gekomen seit. Bin noch nie I'm Chunnel gewesten, zum Glück haben Wir ein Auto mit LPG und dann darf dass nicht 😉. Es sieht aber nicht so schlimm aus als wie Ich dass befürchte.

Does anyone know if flixbus request for visa before you get on the bus or its just in UK security check where visa is requested? I have this doubt because citizens of my country won´t need visa to the UK since november 9 and I will take a bus from amsterdam in november 8th at evening in order to arrive in the uk on november 9

[@Reens-Rails]

No. They stop operating again tomorrow for the rest of november

Great video. Nice accent from driver. Is he Irish? Is that an inland border/security area close to Calais?

[@Reens-Rails]

Thanks, I think the driver was dutch. Yes, border right before the railway station

[@FelixVDW]

He was listening to Flemish Radio 2 on the radio :)

[@UrbanLegendsMagTV]

Are there chargers and wireless on the bus?

[@Reens-Rails]

Usually there is, but we had a spare bus on our trip with no power outlets or wifi. So, bring a powerbank and download some films to be safe 😁

[@matostrainspotting]

When the bus is on the train do you stay inside the bus all the journey?

[@Reens-Rails]

No. You can leave the Bus and wander around

What documents are needed at border control for an American? Just passport?

Wurden die Durchsagen auch auf Französisch gemacht?

[@Reens-Rails]

Nein, nur auf Englisch.

In Calais

[@kevinyao5658]

Why is there a security check point Calais and then return to motorway?

[@simonh6371]

@@kevinyao5658 That's to check for illegal immigrants. For example when I took a Flixbus from Brussels to London, there were guys sneaking around the coach - there you board on the street next to Brussel Zuid station - and trying to get in the luggage compartments, which were open for passengers to put their bags in. I was worried they were trying to steal bags but the driver had his eye on them, then some security came and they ran away. So that compound at Calais is an extra check.
