What to know before your transfer at Paris De Gaulle Airport (CDG)

Tolls, charges, terminal pickup zones and local rules that affect your private transfer at Paris De Gaulle Airport (CDG).

Three terminals, one pickup protocol

Terminal 1, Terminal 2 (T2A–T2G), and Terminal 3 all direct private-hire drivers to the baggage-hall exit. Your Transfeero driver meets you outside with a name sign. Free 60-minute wait covers flight delays and immigration delays.

All tolls and emission zone fees included

The A1 motorway tolls and Zone à Faibles Émissions (ZFE) fees inside the A86 are built into your fixed price. No extra charges for congestion, emissions compliance, or low-emission zone access apply. Pay once; drive straight to Paris.

A1 motorway to central Paris: 31 km

The A1 is the primary route from CDG to Paris centre, merging onto the Boulevard Périphérique. Typical journey is 40–60 minutes; peak hours (10:00–16:00) add 30–45 minutes. Evening rush hour (17:00–20:00) also causes delays, especially Fridays.

VTC licence: French standard for private hire

All Transfeero partners hold a valid VTC (Voiture de Transport avec Chauffeur) licence, France's official private-hire classification. Drivers meet emission standards, insurance requirements, and professional conduct rules. Your transfer is fully legal, insured, and professional.

Transfer insights for Paris De Gaulle Airport

Paris De Gaulle Airport (CDG) comprises three terminals: Terminal 1, Terminal 2 (subdivided into T2A through T2G), and Terminal 3. Most international flights arrive in Terminal 2, which dominates the airport's traffic. After landing, you pass through immigration control, collect baggage at the arrivals hall, and exit to the forecourt. Private transfer drivers meet passengers at the baggage-hall exit holding a name sign; they cannot enter the baggage reclaim area itself. All terminals have designated private-hire pickup zones separate from the chaotic taxi rank.

The journey from CDG to central Paris covers approximately 31 km via the A1 motorway, which connects directly to the Boulevard Périphérique ring road encircling Paris. Standard door-to-door time ranges from 40 to 60 minutes in normal traffic; however, peak congestion between 10:00 and 16:00 can add 30–45 minutes, particularly on weekdays. The main bottleneck occurs where the A1 merges with the A86 orbital motorway east of Paris. Evening rush hour (17:00–20:00) also causes significant delays, especially on Fridays.

All motorway tolls on the A1 and any subsequent paid routes are included in your fixed Transfeero price. The Zone à Faibles Émissions (ZFE)—Paris's low-emission zone covering the area inside the A86—applies Monday to Friday 08:00–20:00; Transfeero drivers hold valid VTC licences and meet all emission standards, so compliance is automatic and costless. No hidden charges, congestion fees, or surprise tolls will appear on your bill.

Taxis at CDG operate from designated ranks where surge pricing is rampant during peak hours; waiting times often exceed 20–30 minutes. The RER B train to Gare du Nord or Châtelet-Les Halles costs €14 and takes 30–35 minutes, but involves navigating stairs with luggage, crowded platforms, and connections to your final destination. The Roissybus service to Opéra costs €16 but runs every 15–30 minutes with unpredictable journey times of 30–75 minutes depending on traffic. A pre-booked private transfer eliminates these hassles: your driver adjusts in real time to flight delays, terminal changes, and traffic, and you travel directly to your hotel or apartment without transfers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Specific answers about transfers at Paris De Gaulle Airport — booking, pickup zones, local tolls, and what changes between terminals.

Where exactly will my Transfeero driver meet me at CDG?
Your driver waits at the arrivals baggage-hall exit of whichever terminal your flight lands in—Terminal 1, Terminal 2, or Terminal 3. They hold a name sign with your surname. Allow 5–10 minutes to clear immigration, collect baggage, and reach the exit. Your flight is monitored in real time, so your driver adjusts if you're delayed.
Are motorway tolls on the A1 included in my fixed price?
Yes. All A1 motorway tolls and any subsequent road charges to your Paris destination are included in your fixed Transfeero price. The Zone à Faibles Émissions (ZFE) fees inside the A86 are also covered. You pay once at booking; no hidden charges appear at the end.
How long does the drive from CDG to central Paris take?
The journey is approximately 31 km via the A1 motorway. In normal traffic, expect 40–60 minutes door-to-door. Peak hours (10:00–16:00 weekdays) add 30–45 minutes. Evening rush hour (17:00–20:00) also causes delays. Your driver updates you in real time if congestion increases.
My flight lands in Terminal 2; will my driver still pick me up?
Absolutely. Terminal 2 has seven sub-terminals (T2A–T2G), and Transfeero drivers are trained to navigate all of them. Your flight information is monitored, so if you land in any T2 sub-terminal, your driver will be waiting at that specific baggage-hall exit with your name sign.
What if my flight is delayed? Do I pay extra?
No. Your booking includes 60 minutes of free wait time at airport arrivals to account for delays and immigration queues. Your flight is monitored in real time, and your driver adjusts automatically at no extra charge. If you require the extended wait beyond 60 minutes, per-minute rates apply.
How does the RER B train compare to Transfeero for airport transfer?
RER B to Gare du Nord or Châtelet-Les Halles costs €14 and takes 30–35 minutes, but requires navigating stairs with luggage, waiting for trains (every 10–15 minutes), and then connecting to your final destination. Transfeero is a direct, door-to-door transfer with no luggage handling on your part and real-time flight monitoring at a fixed price of EUR 39.40.
Are child seats free with Transfeero at CDG?
Yes. Child seats (suitable for babies and young children) are provided free of charge on request. Simply note your child's age and seat type needed when you book. Your Transfeero driver will have the appropriate seat installed and ready when they meet you at the baggage-hall exit.
What is a VTC licence, and do all Transfeero drivers have one?
VTC (Voiture de Transport avec Chauffeur) is France's official private-hire licence for chauffeur-driven vehicles. All Transfeero partners at CDG hold a valid VTC, meeting strict insurance, emission, and professional-conduct standards. Your transfer is fully legal, regulated, and insured. Taxi drivers hold a different taxi medallion; private-hire drivers hold VTC licences.
Can I book a Transfeero transfer late at night from CDG?
Yes. Transfeero operates 24/7 at Paris De Gaulle Airport. Whether you arrive at midnight or 06:00, you can book a private transfer. Your driver will be at the baggage-hall exit whenever your flight lands. Late-night and early-morning journeys are available at the same fixed price as daytime transfers.
How do I pay, and what are tipping customs in France?
Transfeero accepts card payment at booking (no cash needed). Tipping is not compulsory in France; drivers do not expect tips, though a small gesture (€2–5) for excellent service is appreciated but entirely optional. Your driver will not request or pressure you for a tip.
