CDG question

On our way back to the USA from Nice, we are connecting through CDG. The Nice to CDG flight is due to land 1 hour and 45 minutes before the CDG to Philadelphia flight is due to take off. Both are on Air France. Is this enough time to make the connection? I assume that we will have to go through passport control at CDG?

This should be sufficient time for a connection, assuming no weather or mechanical delays shorten your ground time.





As you will have already cleared security in Nice, will be automatically checked in for your flight to the US, and if you can make the connection without leaving the airport secure area, I should think the only passport control at CDG will be a quick check at the gate just before boarding.

Provided your flight is on time, you will have no problem.





You will like the (relatively) new AirFrance terminal at CDG. It is modern and comfortable.

It would appear that your inbound AF flight to CDG from NICE(NCE) will arrive at CDG #2-F and your outbound AF flight to Philadelphia will depart from CDG #2-E. The transfer from #2-F across to #2-E should only take a few minutes/ So assuming you flight from Nice is on-time (or reasonably so) you shouldn%26#39;t have any difficulty making the connection. Check with a flight attendant or gate agent as you deplane to direct you to the CORRESPONDANCE-TRANSFER Desk for the shuttle beween terminal buildings.





Since your flight itinerary is all-AF, your baggage will be checked directly through from inbound to outbound flights. Since you will already be in France, there will be no French Immigration control and all you will need to do is present your passport prior to boarding your outbound Philadelphia flight.
