Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport ground transport
Paris Charles de Gaulle, also called Roissy, is France's busiest airport, about 23 km northeast of the centre. The RER B commuter train is the quick budget route into Paris for a flat €14, while official taxis charge a mandatory fixed fare — €56 to any Right-Bank address, €65 to the Left Bank. A cheaper express bus (route 9517) replaced the old Roissybus in 2026, and Disneyland has its own Magical Shuttle. This guide compares price, time and frequency for every popular destination.

Step-free access in Paris
Charles de Gaulle itself is well equipped; the variable is which rail service you continue on.
- CDGVAL, the free automatic shuttle between terminals and the CDG2 TGV/RER station, is fully step-free: platform screen doors, lifts to every platform level and level boarding onto the trains.
- TGV from the Terminal 2 station is the easiest onward option — a single lift ride down from the terminal, then one train with no change.
- RER B stations run by RATP are equipped with lifts to the platforms, but accessibility across the line is not uniform, and the interchange at Châtelet–Les Halles involves long passages. If you are using a wheelchair or travelling with a lot of luggage, the direct TGV or a road transfer will be considerably less work.
Assistance at the airport is provided through the PRM service and should be requested with your airline in advance.
