Try and bring your own water on board
DorothyFlew with United Airlines-May 2025
Fly late at night so you arrive later in the morning and can have a better chance of encountering less traffic if you take a taxi from CDG to Paris. Another alternative is the RER-B which is located in Terminal 2. There are easy ways to get to Term 2 from Term 1 or 3. The ticket machines are located in the train station.

Wear comfortable clothes, use the bathroom a few times, and try to get plenty of sleep.

Bring snacks! Might also want to bring a seat cushion. Spend lots of time thinking about how happy you are that you got a cheap ticket!

Pack light, a carry on is perfect for a week in Paris and you’ll save time by not waiting for your baggage. Also Orly airport is not as busy and has convenient transportation to all places

Top tips for finding a cheap flight out of the United States

  • Flights from the US to France will arrive either at Cote d’Azur Airport (NCE) in the city of Nice at the southeastern edge of the country, or at one of the two international airports that serve the greater metropolitan area of the capital Paris: Paris Orly Airport (ORY) and Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) in the north.
  • Cote d’Azur Airport in the southern region of Provence-Alpes-Cote d’Azur allows tourists to visit the French Alps, Mont Blanc and the city of Cannes, which hosts its famous film festival. It is also home to the Mediterranean port city of Marseille as well as the principality of Monaco.
  • The Loire Valley wine region of France stretches from the city of Nantes in Pays de la Loire up to the city of Orleans in Centre Val de Loire. Both regions lie due west of Paris and are easy to access if you fly into one of the two Paris airports, although Paris Orly Airport is geographically closer to both.
  • The city of Orleans is the closest major interior city from either Paris airport and is a perfect gateway to visit Dijon, Bourges and Limoges.
  • Southwestern France is dominated by the regions of Nouvelle Aquitaine and Occitanie, marking the border with Spain. It’s a long drive from Paris or Nice, so you may wish to take a connecting flight into Merignac Airport (BOD) in Bordeaux or Blagnac Airport (TLS) in Toulouse in order to get there and save some time.
  • France is a big country with different major cities. There are five main international airports serving the U.S.-to-France route; therefore, when visiting France, you should consider the proximity of your specific destination. If you are headed to the city center, then Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CGD) is ideal, or you can fly to Orly Airport (ORY), which is also easily accessible from the airport.
  • The five busiest airports are also the most cost-effective to fly into France. You can take your flight to either one, like Nice Airport (NCE), then connect to the rest of the country via metro transit, which is easily accessible and wallet-friendly.
  • If you are traveling during winter, consider landing at Lyon-Saint Exupery Airport (LYS), as the airport has close proximity to powdery pistes at Les Deux Alpes and Chamrousse.
  • If you are traveling on a budget, the Beauvais Airport (BVA), located about 85 kilometers from Paris, is the ideal airport to which to fly. The airport serves budget-friendly airlines traveling internationally and domestically. It is, however, the farthest from the capital and, therefore, might take you a while to get to Paris.
  • If you are visiting France on business, the Le Bourget Airport (LBG), which is approximately 6.8 miles (11 km) from France's city center, is a business airport. Business facilities within the airport could be helpful for your needs.

Our flight delayed, due to the incoming flight arriving late from Paris. AF caused us to miss our connecting flight, also booked through Air France directly. They couldn't accommodate us until later that night, and we had to be in AMS earlier than that. They won't do anything else to help us and wanted to charge us more money to rebook us too. Not great service, since it was all their fault.

Seats! The eternal problem in economy. They are like stones!!

Everything is good except the seats are tightened no rooms for the legs,

It was a great experience. The only thing I would have changed was that the bathrooms were never cleaned and they got very dirty.

It was an OK flight with below mediocre service by their flight attendants

Wasted a lot of time trying to find the CDG lounge - it was not next to the connecting flight gate like the Air France staff said.

The only reason the overall rating wasn't "excellent" was due to problems in claiming luggage. The bags are delivered to the main area (Cinta 35) for domestic passengers, but to a DIFFERENT ROOM for international arrivees. After waiting 30 minutes, someone (who didn't appear to be from Air France or the airport) told us to go to another area. There we found our bags, which appeared to have been awaiting us for a while. We had to go through a bag check before leaving the airport. If we had been alerted to this possibility, or better yet, been to go directly to Cinta 34, we could have eliminated quite a bit of waiting.

I did not get my baggage at my final destination..poor coordination with connecting flights with partner airlines (Saudi airways). Also the food was very mediocre.

Not great , just ok . I expected better food but it did not deliver . Flight staff was ok . The guy at the drop off bag counter was the only saving grace in this whole trip . He was pleasant, friendly and very helpful . You couldn’t ask for a better assistance from him .

The first half from DC to Paris was very good and the staff were very helpful and humble BUT flight from Paris to Mumbai was sad. 1) it was packed. 2) no space on head compartment 3) crews were unresponsive to the calls 4) one crew member literally banged the bottle of water after giving me glass of water. A little water splashed on me and she was unapologetic 5) with so many hours of flight, little leg space should be taken care else don’t fill your airline till brim which affects your crew and they remove anger on us. 6) huge line for washrooms. 7) 2nd half journey was pathetic
