How do you book a private pickup at CDG?
You book a private pickup at CDG online in about 2 minutes. Enter your destination, your flight number, the number of passengers and bags, and any child seats you need.
The fixed price appears before you confirm. Families and groups get a bigger vehicle, such as a van, at the price shown. Cancellation is free if your plans change.
What happens if your flight is early or late?
If your flight is early or late, the pickup time moves with it, because the flight is tracked from your flight number.
You do not need to send a message when the flight is delayed. The driver follows the real landing time, and the fixed price stays the same.
Where does the driver meet you at CDG Terminals 1, 2 and 3?
The driver meets you in the arrivals hall of your terminal, after baggage claim and customs, holding a sign with your name.
CDG has three terminals. Terminal 2 is split into several halls, from 2A to 2G, and your flight number tells the driver which one you land at. Terminal 1 and Terminal 3 each have a single arrivals area. Your booking confirmation gives the meeting details.
How long will the driver wait at CDG?
The driver waits up to 60 minutes after your landing time at no extra cost. That covers passport control, baggage claim and a stop at the restroom or a cash machine.
Because waiting starts from the real landing time, a delayed flight does not use up your waiting time.
Are child seats available for a CDG pickup?
Yes. Child seats and boosters are free on every CDG pickup. Give the number and age of each child when you book, and the seats are fitted before the driver arrives at the terminal.
This is especially useful for trips to Disneyland Paris; read our guide to the CDG to Disneyland transfer.
How do you pay for a CDG airport transfer?
You pay for a CDG airport transfer by card, PayPal, SumUp or cash to the driver. The amount is the fixed price agreed at booking.
