Is there an airport shuttle from Paris to Charles de Gaulle?

The RoissyBus shuttle provides a direct link between Paris (Paris-Opéra in 60 minutes) and Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport.



Yes, there are several dedicated shuttle and bus options to reach CDG from central Paris. The RoissyBus is a popular direct shuttle that runs between the Opéra Garnier and all CDG terminals, taking about 60–75 minutes. Another option is the Express 9517 bus (the updated service for 2026), which connects various metro and RER stations to the airport. For those seeking a train-based "shuttle" experience, the RER B is the fastest method, running from stations like Châtelet and Gare du Nord directly to the airport in about 35 minutes. Private shuttles and "Magical Shuttle" services are also available if you are coming from Disneyland Paris. While "shuttle" often implies a van, in Paris, the term usually refers to these high-frequency bus and rail links. For late-night travel, the Noctilien night buses (N140 and N143) serve as a 24-hour shuttle link between the city and the airport.
