 | |  |  | There's more than one terminal at CDG! | |  |  | |  |
There is more than one terminal at CDG. If it's terminal One or Two, you're in the modern bit - and we've never had problems, leaving or arriving. If it's terminal three, prepare for the worst! This terminal is dedicated to "low-cost" carriers, and it shows. First, it's in the back of beyond: you need to ask the bus driver (if you're arriving by bus) or find a friendly member of staff (and they are friendly - and helpful).They will direct you throught the corridors of T1 or T2 to the CDG-train, which links the terminals (this walk made me think I was on a set from "2001 A Space Odyssey"!). When you arrive at what's called T3 you then have a not-short outdoor walk to the terminal itself. When you arrive at the terminal, the check-in queues are lengthy, the few food outlets do awful take-away stuff that you can eat at one of the scarce (dirty) tables. Forget shops and go to the toilet once you have passed security check! On arrival back at T3 we looked for the taxi-rank but couldn't find it, so it was the long walk, CDG-train, etc in reverse. If we now travel cheapie from/via Paris, we omit CDG and go via Orly - a much more pleasant experience! Theme: Airplane

 | |  |  | Flying: Delta's Fastest from the Midwest | |  |  | |  |
So this is my brief review of Delta's flight paths from Midwestern America into Paris. I'm not the best person on airplanes, so the shortest route is usually the one I recommend. The most direct route for us was through Des Moines, Iowa (DSM) then on to Cinn., Ohio (CVG) via a ComAir jet, and that direct to Paris, France (CDG.) It was a great few flights. No stress, but Delta is always pretty good with that sort of thing. Don't sweat it if the layover in CVG appears short, the airport is very small and I've never had more than 10 minutes times between my gates even when I had to change terminals. As for your carry-ons, do NOT tear off the red tags they attach when you initially board at your airport of origin. These will be required to carry the bag onto all the planes for your trip. As of last month, Delta flights from CVG into France do not have the individual seat-back entertainment centers. This is worth it for us though, as we're vegetarians and the selection of food is always good. The standard meals are generally curry. For the non-dietary restricted, it's usually pasta or chicken, salad, bread, cheese and crackers, and a brownie. For breakfast it's fruit and breads. Not as great as Air France, but very passable.
