The problem is that he may already have his Eurostar ticket from
StPancras. Not many trains stop at Ebbsfleet, and by all accounts it's
very difficult to find from the motorway.

That shouldn't be a problem provided a) the train stops there and b) he lets
Eurostar know in advance that he intends to join the train at Ebbsfleet
instead of St Pancras - at least that was the advice I was given when I
asked about joining a train at Ashford instead of Waterloo. If you don't do
(b) you're flagged as a 'no-show' at St Pancras and the ticket won't be
valid at Ebbsfleet.
