Airport Arrival/Departure Information
How to Get to the Airport – on Arrival
- Taxis are not to be taken without specific instructions from the Area Office
- Check which terminal! Call the 24 hr CDG info line (in YP) on the morning of the groups’ arrival: the terminals are sometimes changed at the last minute.
Charles De Gaulle has three terminals. Terminal 2 is divided into A, B, C, D, E, F and remote terminal 2G which mainly has flights from Schengen area countries. T3 is new and mostly charter planes and low-cost airlines. If your group lands at 2E, your coach will wait for you in the parking lot at terminal 2F (5 minutes walk from 2E) since the parking at 2E is only for cars now. If your group lands at terminal 1, the coach ought to be on ground level, around doors 16/18.
Make sure you have the driver’s phone number
Orly has four sectors: Orly 1, 2, 3 and 4.
