CDG Terminal Connections | iFlyer Forum

Air France arrival at CDG is at Satellite Terminal 2E. For more terminal information & how to get arround open www.ifly.com/cdg and click on QUICK LINKS's "Terminal Map", scroll down to detailed text.

You arrive at Terminal 2's satellite building 2G and depart from satellite building 2E. T2 has satellites 2B, 2D & 2F on one side of the driveway and 2A, 2C & 2E on the opposite side. Satellite 2G of Terminal 2 is further away; a shuttle bus runs between 2E and 2G. However, if you are a non-Schengen (countries not part of the Schengen agreement) arrival, you need to go through immigration /customs clearance involving picking up bags & re-checking them in, before continuing to your connecting flight. Also, as an international arrival (incl. US citizens) in Boston, you will need to do the same.

At CDG, you need to go through non-Schengen (international arrivals) customs clearance - this can take up to 50 mins, depending on the line in front of you and will involve your picking up your bag and re-checking it in after control. Terminal 2E has on the departures level access to gates L21-L53 and K21-K54; Terminal 2F has gates F24-56. Thereafter you need to take the shuttle bus, as 2E & 2D are on opposite sides. Your time is tight but you should be able to make it. A shuttle bus connects 2C & 2G, as well as 2E & 2G.

At CDG, if you are an international arrival, you need to go through non-Schengen (international arrivals) customs clearance - this can take up to 50 mins, depending on the line in front of you and will involve your picking up your bag and re-checking it in after control. Terminal 2E has on the departures level access to gates L21-L53 and K21-K54; Terminal 2F has gates F24-56. As both E & F terminals are at opposite sides, you need to take the light-rail shuttle, the "CDGVAL" - follow signs.

At CDG, I have no "Restaurant" listing, only "Stores" - however, there are two "Market Place" listings - don't know if that is food or store.

At CDG - Terminal 2 satellites 2A through 2F are close to each other and 2G is 2.5 km from 2F, necessitating a bus transfer.

This is Terminal 2's layout at CDG: T2 has satellites 2B, 2D & 2F on one side of the driveway and 2A, 2C & 2E on the opposite side. Satellite 2G of Terminal 2 is further away; a shuttle bus runs between 2C & 2G and between 2E and 2G. As an international arrival at CDG you need to go through their immigration/customs process before moving on to 2E. You should have enough time for transfer.

Thanks. I have been hearing horror stories about the French security

And their attitude.

At CDG, you have enough time to transfer as arrivals & departures are in the same Terminal. At Boston, you need to go through passport control, pick up bags, & go through customs clearance before heading for the terminal exit.

At de Gaulle Airport, Terminal 2E has gates L21-L53 and K21-K54; Terminal 2F has gates F24-56. Terminals E & F are on opposite sides of the driveway - a shuttle bus outside runs between them. (this may be the faster way, though you need to go through security check again). The light-rail shuttle called CDGVAL makes its round among all terminals & parking areas.
