Paris Charles de Gaulle: довідник мандрівника
At Charles de Gaulle, “Terminal 2” is not a complete meeting address. Send the terminal shown by the airline, including its letter, and the flight number. An escort arranged for one departure area cannot simply be assumed to cover another. The route matters just as much as the service name.
Arriving at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport
Arrival assistance can include a greeting on the permitted airside route, help with border formalities and baggage, and an escort to the agreed pickup. The operator must approve the greeting point for your terminal and flight. If you have a connecting flight, say whether the tickets are on one booking and whether your bags are checked through; a transfer request needs a different plan from a pickup in Paris.
Leaving from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport
A departure escort can meet you at an agreed terminal entrance or check-in point, help with baggage and tax-refund formalities where included, then guide you through the available controls towards boarding. Extime’s assistance offer and Air France Concierge have their own scope and eligibility. Air France’s published booking cutoff is 18:00 on the day before departure. Lounge access and an external chauffeur should be requested as separate items unless the quote includes them.
Coffee, food and time in the terminal
Extime’s food operator lists bakery and café brands including PAUL, Maison Pradier and Starbucks, alongside takeaway options such as EXKi and Pret A Manger across the Paris airports. Outlet choice depends on your terminal and accessible departure area. La Table de Michel Roth is specifically identified at CDG. Check your departure area before making a plan around a restaurant in another part of the airport.
Shopping before your flight
Use the Extime shopping catalogue with your flight details for collection eligibility and the current product price. Shopping should follow the check-in and border-control plan, particularly if you also need a tax-refund inspection. Keep duty-free liquid purchases and the receipt sealed in the shop’s security bag through any further screening.
Documents and security
France is in Schengen. A departure or arrival route can involve border control depending on the other airport in your itinerary. Assistance does not replace a visa, a passport check or required biometric registration. For connections, allow for every required control and the time to reach the next gate.
Entry requirements: France
France is in Schengen. For ordinary short visits by non-EU nationals, the passport generally needs to have been issued within the previous ten years and remain valid for at least three months after planned departure. Visa-required travellers need the appropriate Schengen permission. The usual short-stay ceiling is 90 days in any 180-day period across Schengen, not 90 days separately in France. Transit and residence cases require their own checks.
