At rush hour, the drive to Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) takes up to 75 minutes. On top of that, allow the time your airline recommends for check-in and security.
Your driver drops you at the departures level of your terminal, as close as possible to your airline's check-in area. Tell us your airline and terminal when you book.
83% of our clients on this route are picked up in the morning, between 6am and noon.
Based on Samantha Travels bookings on this route, March 2026 to November 2026. Shares only: no number of rides, name or address is published.
Give us the full address of your hotel, not only its name: several Paris hotels share similar names. Many central streets are pedestrian or closed to through traffic. When your door cannot be reached by car, we agree on the closest pickup point with you on WhatsApp before the day. Traffic is heaviest on weekday mornings and evenings, on the ring road and the motorways out of Paris: plan a margin at those times. Inside the city, a Metro-Train-RER ticket costs €2.55 in 2026, but it is not valid to or from the airports, which need the €14 Paris Region Airports ticket.
CDG has three terminals, and Terminal 2 is split into seven halls, 2A to 2G. Check your terminal and hall before you land or leave, and send them to us with your flight number. The RER B stops at two airport stations: Aéroport CDG 1 for Terminals 1 and 3, and Aéroport CDG 2 TGV for Terminal 2, where the TGV trains to Disneyland and the rest of France also stop. The RER B needs the Paris Region Airports ticket, €14 in 2026: a standard metro ticket is not valid to or from the airport. The RoissyBus stopped running at the end of February 2026. Buses 350 and 351 and the express bus 9517 now link the airport with Paris, with a €2.05 Bus-Tram ticket. After the last RER B, around midnight, the Noctilien N140 and N143 night buses run to Gare du Nord and Gare de l'Est. Taking a taxi? Use the official taxi ranks outside the terminals, never a driver who approaches you in the hall.
Leaving Paris for CDG, the risk is the A1 motorway at rush hour: the same drive can take 35 minutes or well over an hour, so leave a wide margin on weekday mornings and evenings. We set your pickup time from your flight and terminal, with a margin for traffic, and your driver drops you at the departures door of your terminal. If the RER B is disrupted that day, nothing changes for you.
Alone with a small bag and leaving outside rush hour, the RER B gets you to CDG for €14. For an early flight, a family or several suitcases, a private driver is the safer choice: we set your pickup time from your flight, plan a margin for the A1 traffic and drop you at the departures door of your terminal, for €110 for the whole car, agreed in advance and free to cancel up to 24 hours before pickup.
