Aéroport Charles de Gaulle
Getting between Aéroport Charles de Gaulle and Paris, both directions. Pick your terminal below: what serves CDG differs by terminal.
Two of the three airports sit inside the Île-de-France fare system and one does not. A trip to Charles de Gaulle or Orly on the ordinary network is its own ticket — the flat Paris Région–Aéroports fare, which a Navigo Jour day pass does not include and a Navigo Semaine, Mois or Annuel pass does when it is valid for zones 1 to 5. An airport's own dedicated shuttle is a separate product wherever you meet one: its own ticket, and no Navigo pass on it. Beauvais sits outside the system altogether, and the way in is the Aérobus shuttle.
