Luggage storage at CDG

You will not have time to "see" the city during a six-hour layover, but there is luggage storage -- Bagagesdumond.com. Plan on using up about an hour of your time, at least, for the luggage drop off and pick up.

Does the six hours start after baggage claim and border controls, or at touchdown?

Does the six hours end before you have to check in for the next flight (2 hours within Europe, 3 to North America, plus getting lost time at CDG plus long walking time at CDG)?

If you have 6 clear hours after baggage claim and before check in time, you could do a whistle stop into and out of Paris but it will take you an hour each way (plus a bit more for worry time) leaving you about 3 hours on the ground in Paris.

What is the one most important thing for you to see?

Don't try to leave your luggage. For such a short period of time you will waste a lot getting it past security and into storage and have worry time of the queues are too long when you want to reclaim it.

Which is more important to YOU - money or time?

Jan,

Nigel has said it best, especially when she asked this:

Does the six hours start after baggage claim and border controls, or at touchdown?

If the 6 hours start upon landing, you don't have enough time to "see" Paris.

As Nigel also mentioned, you need to return to CDG at least 2 hours for a domestic flight (within Europe) & at least 3 hours for an International flight.

There are multiple long lines you'll need to wait at, at this very busy airport, prior to reaching your departure gate.

I wouldn't risk missing my flight.

We arrive in Paris at 6:00 am. Our next flight departs to Croatia st 6:00 p m

Any suggestions.

Thanks

well with 12 hours, at least you will have time to go into the city and see something! (if you arrive on time, or roughly thereafter).
