TGV timeframe ?

[vellamint]

If I have a 1:30 pm flight out of CDG do you think a 10:43 am departure time on the TGV at Disneyland leaves us enough time once we get to the airport? Traveling Air France if that helps.

Thanks

I asked the same question a few weeks ago and was told to allow 3 hours from arrival at the airport. That should give enough time to expect the worst and hope for the best.

Unfortunately, we only ended up with 2 hours 40 minutes time. I am really hoping for the best!

You should be fine. We got a 6.30 train for our flight at 20:25 and had enough time. This wad with air France.

I am ending up with 2 hours and 40 minutes also.....

I was pricing out the Disney shuttle bus and it would cost exactly the same but I would need to leave much earlier....

I am nervous about customs and such.....

Its seems that the train would be more efficient than the bus though.....

It would cost $34 more to get the earler train that will get us to the airport 3 1/2 hours ahead of our flight......that just seems like such a LONG time to wait for a flight.

Does anyone know if the price of the train fares increase with time? I am still trying to sort this out and wonder if I should just book the later train rather than wait and have the fare increase.

Thanks.

The fares are at their cheapest if you purchase them at least 10 days in advance (I use the TGV every time from DLP back to CDG).

I am also using TGV pre purchased to CDG. It is quick, easy, right from Disney and cheap to use.

Thank you. I will definitely purchase our tickets more than 10 days in advance to get the least expensive tickets...... I am excited!! We do not have double-decker high-speed trains. It will be our first "ride" of the trip!!
