CDG transfer: meeting points by terminal (T1, 2A, 2E...)

Practical guide: Arriving at CDG with children: car seats, luggage and where the chauffeur meets you

Paris-Charles de Gaulle covers more than 3,200 hectares and has three terminals, with Terminal 2 divided into seven halls. For a traveller stepping off a long-haul flight, tired and with two suitcases, knowing where to go makes a considerable difference. This guide walks through the CDG terminals and how your private chauffeur meets you there. All Precellence chauffeurs are English-speaking.

The CDG system at a glance

CDG comprises 3 terminals (T1, T2, T3), with T2 subdivided into 7 halls (2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 2E, 2F, 2G). The terminals are linked by the CDGVAL, a free automated shuttle train.

In every terminal, chauffeurs with a booking wait for their clients in the arrivals hall, sign in hand; taxis have their own ranks outside. Before pick-up, you receive your chauffeur’s name, number plate and direct phone number by message (WhatsApp or email): a single call is enough to find each other.

Terminal 1

Circular-shaped terminal, recognisable by its central ring and its satellites. It serves many international airlines: check your terminal on your boarding pass.

• Arrivals exit: arrivals hall, at the exit of the baggage claim area
• Precellence meeting point: your chauffeur waits for you at the exit of the baggage claim area, with a sign bearing your name
• CDGVAL access: Terminal 1 has its own station, accessible via moving walkways from the central hall.

Terminal 2A & 2C

Twin halls, connected to each other. The airlines using them change from season to season: check your hall on your boarding pass.

• Arrivals exit: arrivals area of your hall
• Meeting point: your chauffeur waits for you at the exit of the baggage claim area, with a sign bearing your name

Terminal 2B & 2D

Twin halls. Here too, check your hall on your boarding pass.

• Arrivals exit: level 0
• Meeting point: your chauffeur waits for you at the exit of the baggage claim area, with a sign bearing your name

Terminal 2E & 2F

The busiest halls, at the heart of the Air France hub (the airline operates from halls 2E, 2F and 2G). 2E is subdivided into three boarding areas: K, L and M.

• Arrivals exit: arrivals area of your hall, at the exit of the baggage claim area
• Precellence meeting point: your chauffeur waits for you at the exit of the baggage claim area, with a sign bearing your name
• Specific note: these halls are very large. No later than 2 hours before pick-up, you receive your chauffeur’s name, number plate and direct phone number by message (WhatsApp or email): a single call is enough to find each other.

Terminal 2G

Small hall used notably by Air France, separate from the rest of Terminal 2 and linked to it by a free shuttle.

• Arrivals exit: arrivals hall
• Meeting point: your chauffeur waits for you at the exit of the baggage claim area, with a sign bearing your name

Terminal 3

The smallest of CDG’s three terminals.

• Arrivals exit: arrivals hall
• Meeting point: your chauffeur waits for you at the exit of the baggage claim area, with a sign bearing your name
• CDGVAL access: Terminal 3 is linked to the other terminals by the CDGVAL

Business aviation — Le Bourget & FBO CDG

For private jet or business aviation arrivals, the meeting point is different:

• Le Bourget (LFPB): your chauffeur waits for you in your FBO’s lounge. Let us know which one at booking.
• FBO at CDG: give the name of your FBO at booking.

The Precellence welcome protocol in every terminal

For every terminal, the standard is identical:

• 15 min before scheduled landing: your chauffeur is on site
• No later than 2 hours before pick-up: you receive your chauffeur’s name, number plate and direct phone number by message (WhatsApp or email)
• As soon as you exit baggage claim: the chauffeur is waiting with a name sign (or with an anonymous name if you prefer for discretion)
• Systematic baggage assistance, mineral water on board, USB-C/Lightning chargers, Wi-Fi
• 60 min of waiting time included after landing (flight tracking included)

What if I cannot find my chauffeur?

If you have any difficulty:

1. Call the chauffeur directly — their direct number is sent to you before pick-up. They will describe their position and come to meet you.
2. Message us on WhatsApp at +33 7 69 70 00 20 — during the day, our team puts you in touch with your chauffeur.

Your chauffeur’s direct number remains your first port of call: they are on site and will come to meet you.

Summary

In every terminal, the principle is the same: your chauffeur waits for you in the arrivals hall, at the exit of the baggage claim area, with a sign bearing your name. Their direct number is sent to you before pick-up: a single call is enough to find each other.
