How many people make up your %26quot;..we..%26quot; ?? The %26#39;break-even%26#39; point for %26#39;cost%26#39; between airport shuttle van and regular Taxi Parisian begins at three(3) passengers. How much luggage?? There are excellent, less expensive, pulic transportation transfer alternatives. Some work better than others, depending on individual situation/circumstance and final destination address within Paris.

The only %26#39;..best way..%26#39; from airport to Paris is to discover all of the various options and alternatives, how they work, what they cost and then %26#39;fit%26#39; these to your own personal situation/circumstance, preferences, priorities, special needs and BUDGET..and then select the one(s) that suit these best.

Portlandor: You may want to take note of the airport codes used for the immediate Paris area: PAR, CDG, ORY, or BVA.

The airport code you gave, CGH, is for Sao Paolo, BRAZIL.

If you%26#39;re making your own arrangements for flights, it DOES make a little bit of a difference.

Je vous souhaite un bon voyage!

That being the case...40€ or even 55€ is a GREAT deal for an airport shuttle to a hotel in or around Paris.
