Quick one, how close to your booked time slot do you have to be? If we booked a morning slot and arrive late will we still slide through like normal. What if were a day late?

We've only ever been early, but as said as long as there's a slot on the train you are in.

If in doubt ring the customer services, they are very helpful. (We had to rearrange by days rather than hours once or twice)
And we’re they flexible with the date change? I assume so as like above it’s why the premium is paid?

Yep, no probs at all.

When we had to cancel this year's trip the refund was back on the card within a couple of days too.

That Flexiplus is expensive, but you do get what you pay for. (Apart from when your line bypasses all the queues, but then you need to cut in at the last moment hehe)
That’s great to hear. Used it last month but was sticking to timings just booked to the ring this weekend but uncertainties on when we will return means I would like flex but it wasn’t too clear how much flex.

Just as an update to this, was due to travel to Germany last Saturday, the Thursday after I posted this Germany said if you arrive from Saturday onwards you need a negative covid test to enter so jumped online moved our booking to the Friday (when we originally had planned to leave) and off we went.

Definitely worth the flexiplus ticket and the foods pretty good too. With 2 of us it’s not a significant cost factor but if you were a family the saving made from not buying food in the terminal probably would make flexiplus worthwhile even without the flexibility.
