Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) is France’s largest hub, sitting about 16 miles northeast of central Paris.

Three Terminals, Free Shuttle Train Between Them

CDG operates Terminals 1, 2 (itself split into sub-terminals 2A through 2G), and 3, connected by the free CDGVAL shuttle train, since the terminals sit too far apart to walk between.

RER B Reaches Central Paris in About 30 Minutes

The RER B suburban train serves two stations at CDG, one for Terminals 1 and 3 and another for Terminal 2, reaching central Paris stops like Gare du Nord and Chatelet-Les Halles in around 30 minutes.

CDG vs. Orly

Paris Orly (ORY), the city’s other major airport, sits closer to central Paris and is worth checking for domestic and some European routes alongside CDG’s larger international network.
