Cinque Terre to Paris-train/flight HELP

Posted by on

In June 2018, I will be traveling from Cinque Terre to Paris (FIRST trip to Europe). I have been trying to research this topic on my own; however, I am really struggling with finding the best way to get from point A to point B. I would prefer to fly into Paris in order to save time that I do not really have to spare(I am guessing Pisa to Paris is the best option?), but am open to your opinion on possibly doing the night train to paris. My air bnb in Paris will be near the Eiffel Tower; therefore, I am also concerned with the best way to get from BVA or ORY to my air bnb (flights into CDG are way too pricey). I have checked sky scanner and seen flights with Easy Jet and RyanAir; however, they each only have one flight going out that day at this time, either at 0600 or 1600... I am wondering if they will eventually add more flights or if my options are just limited? Check in time to my air bnb is 1400 and I would prefer to be in Paris around that time. Please help me haha & thank you in advance!

MJ,

The easiest and quickest solution on that particular route will be a budget flight. Pisa would be my first choice but you could also look at Genova. I had a brief look and the only option from Genova appears to be Air France, which is likely going to be more expensive. They fly to CDG so you'd need to include the time from there to your B&B.

Unfortunately you'll have to adjust to the airline schedules and may not be able to choose your arrival time in Paris. I checked easyJet and their daily flight appears to depart at 16:45 to Orly. When you arrive at ORY, you could use the OrlyVal Peoplemover to Antony station, then RER "B" into Paris and then Metro / Taxi to your B&B, which will be in the 7th Arr. I vaguely recall that trip taking at least 1 - 2 hours. There are also Buses but I didn't check the details on those.

I wouldn't suggest using RyanAir as Beauvais is a long way out of Paris and that's going to mean a bus ride of at least an hour (plus waiting times, etc.) as well as the time from the bus depot to your B&B in the 7th.

Travel by rail will mean a trip of about 12 hours with 2-4 changes, and most trains arrive after 19:00 so that's not a good option.

You are a little too early 8 months away maybe simply the flight options are not all listed
