Here's what** you need to know upon arrival. There are two Paris airports — Charles de Gaulle (CDG), northeast of the city, and Orly to the south. Orly was the original airport in Paris but today is used mostly for domestic flights. Charles de Gaulle Airport (also know as *Roissy*, after the nearby town), is where all flights from North America arrive in Paris. It's at this airport that you will go through customs, pick up your luggage, and [meet your private driver](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/paris-private-transfer-fromto-charles-de-gaulle-t135606/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=t3-page-top) or catch a taxi or train to the center of the city.

Although there have been improvements in recent years, the passport control line-up at Charles de Gaulle Airport can still be long. Don't worry, though, the line usually moves fast. Just make sure you're in the right line. There is one queue for EU Passports (European Union) and one for non-EU passports. Choose the non-EU if you're from the US or the UK or Canada or Australia, etc.  Our Top-Rated Paris Experiences | | | |---|---| | [](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/paris-2-hour-louvre-museum-guided-tour-with-ticket-t457745/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=widget-louvre) | [**Seine River Romantic Dinner Cruise…**](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/bateaux-parisiens-dinner-cruise-t51059/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=tfb&mkt_cmp=true) [**The Best of Versailles VIP Experience…**](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/daytrip-from-paris-to-versailles-and-trianons-t10660/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=tfb&mkt_cmp=true) [**Cheese Tasting in a Paris Cheese Cellar…**](https://9974.partner.viator.com/tours/Paris/Cheese-and-Wine-Tasting-in-a-Paris-Cheese-Cellar/d479-6838CHEESECELLAR) [**Louvre Masterpieces Tour…**](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/paris-louvre-masterpieces-tour-with-pre-reserved-tickets-t414691/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=tfb&mkt_cmp=true) | - [**Seine River Romantic Dinner Cruise…**](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/bateaux-parisiens-dinner-cruise-t51059/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=tfb&mkt_cmp=true) - [**The Best of Versailles VIP Experience…**](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/daytrip-from-paris-to-versailles-and-trianons-t10660/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=tfb&mkt_cmp=true) - [**Cheese Tasting in a Paris Cheese Cellar…**](https://9974.partner.viator.com/tours/Paris/Cheese-and-Wine-Tasting-in-a-Paris-Cheese-Cellar/d479-6838CHEESECELLAR) - [**Louvre Masterpieces Tour…**](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/paris-louvre-masterpieces-tour-with-pre-reserved-tickets-t414691/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=tfb&mkt_cmp=true) ## Navigating Charles de Gaulle [ *Click to view a large-size map of CDG terminals*](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/image-files/cdg-map-full-size.jpg) **CDG is a sprawling airport with a confusing** number of terminal designations, from Terminal 1 to Terminal 2A through 2F. Terminal 2, in fact, is really a collection of seven terminals, with a few extra sub-designations like 2F-1 to make matters even more confusing. An additional terminal, S4, opened in recent years. It's connected to terminal 2E and also handles long-haul flights, particularly wide-bodied planes. It is used for flights by Air France and its partners. **But, not to worry. Check your ticket information** before you leave home to find out what terminal your airline is using. Most North American airlines generally arrive at and depart from terminal 2A, and that's an okay terminal, easy to get around. The airline we use and recommend [Air France](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/airfare-to-paris.html#airfrance), which flies out of the newer 2E. If you've arranged to be met by a shuttle van or private car they'll know where to find you from your flight number. A private driver will, in fact, meet you at your exit gate. **We find the [new terminal maps at the CDG website](http://www.parisaeroport.fr/en/passengers/access/paris-charles-de-gaulle/terminals-map)** to be very helpful. PARIS INSIDERS TIP [](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/louvre-museum-paris.html) #### [Louvre Guided Tours](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/louvre-museum-paris.html) The Louvre is vast, and a good guide makes the visit easier. See the Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo, and other highlights while hearing how this former royal palace became the world’s most visited museum. [See Louvre Tours →](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/louvre-museum-paris.html) ## Charles de Gaulle Terminal 2G Special Info  **If you are continuing on from CDG** to certain European destinations (Air France to Florence is one example) you will need to transfer to terminal 2G, which lies quite a ways outside the other terminals in the "2" complex. (You can see it at the far right-hand edge of the [full-size terminal map](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/image-files/cdg-map-full-size.jpg).) **Insiders Tip — If you're traveling** with small children or if you are disabled, you can move to the front of the line at Paris airports. Look for an airport worker or official and explain (gestures also work). It's a nice French custom and people will make way for you. **To get there, follow the directional** signs inside your arrival terminal and you will end up at a bus stop, where you can catch the free shuttle to 2G. You don't need to worry about your luggage, it will be automatically transferred. The same information applies for distant Terminal 1 and Terminal 3, which are used by certain other inter-European flights; for instance Vueling Airlines flights from Barcelona. - [**CDG Inter-Terminal Shuttle Information**…](http://www.parisaeroport.fr/en/passengers/access/paris-charles-de-gaulle/inter-terminal-shuttles) PARIS INSIDERS TIP [](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/skip-the-line-versailles-tours.html) #### [The Essential Versailles Day Trip](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/skip-the-line-versailles-tours.html) Versailles is unforgettable, but the crowds can slow the visit to a crawl.

## Paris Airports – What You Need To Know About Charles de Gaulle (CDG) **You've landed in Paris! Here's what** you need to know upon arrival. There are two Paris airports — Charles de Gaulle (CDG), northeast of the city, and Orly to the south. Orly was the original airport in Paris but today is used mostly for domestic flights. Charles de Gaulle Airport (also know as *Roissy*, after the nearby town), is where all flights from North America arrive in Paris. It's at this airport that you will go through customs, pick up your luggage, and [meet your private driver](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/paris-private-transfer-fromto-charles-de-gaulle-t135606/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=t3-page-top) or catch a taxi or train to the center of the city. ## [Comfortable Private Car Transfers Into Paris](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/paris-private-transfer-fromto-charles-de-gaulle-t135606/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=t3-page) [](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/paris-private-transfer-fromto-charles-de-gaulle-t135606/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=t3-page) **Know what's going to happen when you land** at Charles de Gaulle airport by [arranging private transportation](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/paris-private-transfer-fromto-charles-de-gaulle-t135606/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=t3-page-top) into Paris. WE don't know about you, but the end of a long journey, we can use a little TLC once we're finally let off the plane. With a private transfer your driver meets you on arrival, helps with your luggage, and takes you directly to your Paris hotel in a private, air-conditioned sedan. THAT'S the way to start your vacation in style\! ## Charles de Gaulle Airport  **CDG is the biggest airport in Europe,** and one of the busiest in the world, with over 70,000,000 passengers going through its terminals every year. Although there have been improvements in recent years, the passport control line-up at Charles de Gaulle Airport can still be long. Don't worry, though, the line usually moves fast. Just make sure you're in the right line. There is one queue for EU Passports (European Union) and one for non-EU passports. Choose the non-EU if you're from the US or the UK or Canada or Australia, etc.  ## Navigating Charles de Gaulle [ *Click to view a large-size map of CDG terminals*](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/image-files/cdg-map-full-size.jpg) **CDG is a sprawling airport with a confusing** number of terminal designations, from Terminal 1 to Terminal 2A through 2F. Terminal 2, in fact, is really a collection of seven terminals, with a few extra sub-designations like 2F-1 to make matters even more confusing. An additional terminal, S4, opened in recent years. It's connected to terminal 2E and also handles long-haul flights, particularly wide-bodied planes. It is used for flights by Air France and its partners. **But, not to worry. Check your ticket information** before you leave home to find out what terminal your airline is using. Most North American airlines generally arrive at and depart from terminal 2A, and that's an okay terminal, easy to get around. The airline we use and recommend [Air France](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/airfare-to-paris.html#airfrance), which flies out of the newer 2E. If you've arranged to be met by a shuttle van or private car they'll know where to find you from your flight number. A private driver will, in fact, meet you at your exit gate. **We find the [new terminal maps at the CDG website](http://www.parisaeroport.fr/en/passengers/access/paris-charles-de-gaulle/terminals-map)** to be very helpful. #### [Louvre Guided Tours](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/louvre-museum-paris.html) The Louvre is vast, and a good guide makes the visit easier. See the Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo, and other highlights while hearing how this former royal palace became the world’s most visited museum. ## Charles de Gaulle Terminal 2G Special Info  **If you are continuing on from CDG** to certain European destinations (Air France to Florence is one example) you will need to transfer to terminal 2G, which lies quite a ways outside the other terminals in the "2" complex. (You can see it at the far right-hand edge of the [full-size terminal map](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/image-files/cdg-map-full-size.jpg).) **Insiders Tip — If you're traveling** with small children or if you are disabled, you can move to the front of the line at Paris airports. Look for an airport worker or official and explain (gestures also work). It's a nice French custom and people will make way for you. **To get there, follow the directional** signs inside your arrival terminal and you will end up at a bus stop, where you can catch the free shuttle to 2G. You don't need to worry about your luggage, it will be automatically transferred. The same information applies for distant Terminal 1 and Terminal 3, which are used by certain other inter-European flights; for instance Vueling Airlines flights from Barcelona. - [**CDG Inter-Terminal Shuttle Information**…](http://www.parisaeroport.fr/en/passengers/access/paris-charles-de-gaulle/inter-terminal-shuttles) #### [The Essential Versailles Day Trip](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/skip-the-line-versailles-tours.html) Versailles is unforgettable, but the crowds can slow the visit to a crawl. A guided tour keeps the day moving with easier entry, the palace highlights explained, time in the gardens, and maybe even a stop at Marie Antoinette's estate. ## [Taxis from CDG to Paris](https://www.parisinsidersguide.com/paris-airport-transfers-taxi.html) [](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/paris-private-transfer-fromto-charles-de-gaulle-t135606/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=t3-page) **Although, as you know by now, we prefer** to book [private transportation](https://www.getyourguide.com/paris-l16/paris-private-transfer-fromto-charles-de-gaulle-t135606/?partner_id=UG4ZIJY&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=t3-page), taxis remain the most common means of getting from the Paris airports into the city.
