Question about getting from cdg to dlp

[annie64]

Need help figuring this out please...i am actually arriving with my daughter and friend via eurostar to the DLP train station; however I'm treating my cousin and her daughter to the trip also...they are flying into CDG on 9 Mar from Washington DC on Continental Airlines...trying to figure out the easiest most stress free way to get them to DLP...of course the cheaper the better. I don't need round trip as they will be leaving with us via Eurostar to complete our vacation in London...I've looked at the train, the Disney shuttle etc but am not certain what is best and most stress free...their plane arrives at 11:25 barring any delays...the tricky part is i'm paying for it and i need to make sure they can get the tickets, vouchers or whatever it is they need...

I'd take the TGV rather than a taxi shuttle for the cost but that's just me.

CO come into T1 so they would have to take the monorail (CDG-Val) to the TGV station in T2. It's a 8 minute ride.

Then you go down 3 floors to the TGV

After it depends on them, how much luggage they have, how tired they will be etc etc

You could always contact RS Transport as they offer shared shuttles, though reading people experiences they very very rarely share, as this is cheaper than getting a private one.

Then like that the driver will come to T1 and if they are late or whatever he will be waiting for them. You can always pay them in advance so that's all done

RS transport has a special right now so that might be the better option...the easier for them the better...my concern is with getting through customs...when i looked at the rs transport site it said they'd be picked up at noon...will the driver wait if it takes longer to clear customs?

They will wait as long as it takes don't worry

The drivers check the arrivals and baggage claims "live" and in general they all wait outside the parking zones until they see that the planes landed and things are moving. Saves them running up huge parking fees.

Customs are straightforward when they arrive, you just walk straight through when you have your baggage, there's no forms to be filled in or anything to give to anyone.

Passeport control is way way quicker than when you enter the US as well, they generally just look at your passeport and wave you through at most it's going to be a quick scan, no photos or fingerprints
