I am flying back to the states from Paris-DeGaulle on a 2 pm flight in early June. How much ahead of my flight should I arrive at the airport. I only have carry-on luggage.

I'd arrive 3 hours. Sometimes the airline will send you an alert days before or when you check in online their recommended time based on what's going on security wise.

You never arrive at Charles de Gaulle less than three hours before your flight because if you do, you’ll be in line for two hours.
Now, when you arrive three hours, you’ll probably whip right through security but trust me it’s better to be bored in the gate area then be one of those people I saw a few trips ago in the immigration line having a nervous breakdown
