Hi guys,
Could you please advice me how to get to Charles de Gaulle Airport from St Georges Metro Station? and how long does it take during peak hour (around 4pm Tuesday). I can't be late as I need to catch a 6pm flight to Venice. Many thanks! |

Take the metro to Pigalle (one stop). Then Pigalle to Gare du Nord and then the RER B to CDG. The whole trip shpud take between 45 min to 1 hour.
In reference to your previous question, you only need to buy a ticket to CDG from St-Georges. Don't use your carnet tickets.

I'm not the OP but for my own future knowledge and others....
I'm looking at a map at of the metro and I can't figure out how to get from Pigalle to Gare du Nord?! It doesn't look like the 12 or the 2 line link up to the train station. So Pomerol, what do you know that I can't figure out? ;) Or if you find the RER trains confusing ( like I do) you could take the Roissy bus. The bus stop is on rue Scribe right behind Opera Garnier, costs about 9 euros but you do have to factor in traffic! The bus should take at least an hour.

Two options really Alli,
You can either transfer at Barbès-Rochebouart or for a direct transfer, keep going to La Chapelle which is linked to Gare du Nord by a tunnel. See for yourself. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Chapelle_(Paris_Métro)

Oh I see now, La Chapelle has a "white bar" linking the two stations on my little map.
Thanks
