Re: Eurostar arrivals at Brussels

Also, change your seat to one in coach 18 if travelling standard class. This
will put you closest to the exit. If unable to do so beforehand, ask the
Train Manager (Coach 5 and 14 Waterloo) during boarding. They can normally
oblige if not too busy or could at least put you in the closer half if 18 is
full.

If you are anywhere in the front half of the train you can walk through to the front carriage in the few minutes before arrival (but do it early enough that other people aren't starting to get up and block the aisles). Another option is simply to move to an empty seat at the front of the train. Sometimes they make announcements about not moving seats because of passengers expected to board at Ashford or Lille, but in practice it's only ever a handful of people, and not a problem.
