Confusing and scary for first timers!
CDG airport is the most confusing and scary airport I have ever been too in my life… it is absolutely huge, not clearly labelled, ridiculously busy, impossible to find your way around especially if it’s your first time. I landed here to go to Disneyland Paris, my first time going to France, I had the hardest time trying to find the bag drop area, it took me forever to find my way around and it was so stressful, I needed to get to the train station they have in terminal 2 and the maps on my phone were not working, I was so worried I was going to miss my train and be stuck there… it was really nerve racking but it was my first time… I did eventually find the bag drop area and passport control, but even after doing that and claiming my bags trying to navigate to the train station was a nightmare, and don’t get me started on the train station itself because that was also confusing as hell and the train was a nightmare. For my return flight, I did find it slightly easier, but only because I got ridiculously lucky with the gate I needed for my flight being right infront of where I came out of passport control. If I hadn’t of gotten lucky, that would have been a nightmare too. Also the lack of food is terrible? There is absolutely nothing to eat. However they do have indoor smoking areas including at the gates and the staff were super friendly, so that is how it gains 2 stars and not less. I would 100% use this airport again but ONLY for Disneyland, it’s worth it for how quick and easy it is to get there from this airport but you wouldn’t catch me here for connecting flights or for any other purpose of travel.
