We will be in the Bordeaux region of France, and there is a train from Bordeaux to Charles De Gaulle Airport that arrives at 10:30 am. We have a flight back to the US at noon. (1) Are 1.5 hours enough to make it on the international flight? (2) Is the train likely to be on time?
Thanks much to the seasoned traveler replies received -
No, this will not work. For a flight from CDG across the Atlantic it's wise to be at the airport three hours ahead of your scheduled departure time. While two hours may be enough most of the time, under certain conditions you'll need all of that and more.
"Is the train likely to be on time?"
In Germany I would say "Yes". In Italy I would say "No". In France, "Maybe". Nevertheless, with only an hour and a half, I don't think maybe is enough.
Thanks for the info!
no and no.
