We are flying into CDG, arriving 9:45am, and need to get to Chamonix best and fastest way possible. Any advice will be appreciated.

You have several options: 1. Take either the RER or the Air France bus from CDG to Gare de Lyon in central Paris. Leave Gare de Lyon on the 12:11 TGV and stay on it all the way to Geneva. You'll arrive at 15:27. Take the SAT bus from Geneva to Chamonix, departing at 16:00 and arriving at 18:00. 2. Go to Gare de Lyon and take the same 12:11 TGV, but get off at Bellegarde rather than going on to Geneva. Make other connections as necessary until you arrive at Chamonix. That would allow you to arrive at Chamonix at 18:47. 3. Stay at CDG, take the 11:56 TGV from the airport station to Lyon par Dieu, and make other connections as necessary until you arrive at Chamonix at 19:47. See the detailed timetables on the German Rail site. See this page on the Chamonix site for links giving you access information from Geneva.
