## Location and Entrances
The station is inside the central section of the Terminal 2 complex at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport.
It is most easily reached from:
- Terminals 2C and 2E on the western side
- Terminals 2D and 2F on the eastern side
- Terminal 2B through connecting walkways
- Terminal 2G using the airport shuttle
- Terminal 1 and Terminal 3 using CDGVAL
There is no single conventional street entrance. Passengers enter through Terminal 2 and follow signs towards the railway concourse.
The marker is positioned over the central TGV and RER station area rather than an individual airline terminal entrance.
## Train Services
The TGV station provides direct or connecting high-speed services to major French destinations, including:
- Lille
- Lyon
- Marseille
- Avignon
- Aix-en-Provence
- Montpellier
- Strasbourg
- Rennes
- Nantes
- Bordeaux connections
Some trains continue to destinations outside France or connect with international services.
The station allows passengers to transfer between flights and long-distance trains without travelling into central Paris. Not every TGV using the Paris region stops at the airport, so check that the ticket specifically names Aéroport Charles de Gaulle 2 TGV.
## RER B to Central Paris
RER Line B connects Terminal 2 with central Paris and southern suburbs.
Useful stops include:
- Gare du Nord
- Châtelet–Les Halles
- Saint-Michel–Notre-Dame
- Luxembourg
- Denfert-Rochereau
- Antony
- Massy–Palaiseau
Gare du Nord provides connections to Eurostar, northern France and several Metro lines. Châtelet–Les Halles is useful for central Paris and connections to other RER routes.
Check the destination display before boarding because RER B trains continue beyond central Paris on different southern branches.
## Airport Terminal Connections
Terminals 2C, 2D, 2E and 2F are connected to the station through indoor pedestrian routes.
CDGVAL provides connections between:
- Terminal 1
- Terminal 3 and Roissypole
- Terminal 2
Terminal 2G is separate from the main Terminal 2 halls and normally requires an airport shuttle from Terminal 2F.
Walking times within Terminal 2 can be substantial. Allow additional time for security, passport control, baggage collection and transfers between terminal buildings.
## Station Layout and Transfers
The station has several levels containing the airport concourse, ticket facilities, RER platforms and TGV platforms.
RER B platforms are on a lower station level, while TGV access is clearly marked from the central concourse. Lifts, escalators and stairs connect the different levels.
Allow approximately:
- 10–15 minutes between a nearby Terminal 2 hall and the platforms
- 20–30 minutes from more distant Terminal 2 areas
- Additional time from Terminals 1, 3 or 2G
- Considerably longer when collecting luggage or passing border control
Train doors may close shortly before departure, so avoid planning a tight flight-to-train connection.
## Buses, Taxis and Parking
Airport buses, local buses and hotel shuttles operate from different levels and terminal areas.
City bus services depart from the north side of the station area, while other airport and regional services may use separate terminal stops.
Taxis are available outside the terminal buildings rather than directly beside the underground railway platforms.
Parking PCD is one of the closest parking facilities to the Terminal 2 railway station. Drivers should follow airport signs for their terminal, parking area or passenger pickup location.
## Facilities and Accessibility
The station provides ticket machines, passenger information, waiting areas, toilets, shops, cafés and access to airport facilities.
Lifts and escalators connect the principal station levels and platforms. Accessible routes are available between the station and Terminal 2, although the distance to individual airline check-in areas varies.
Passengers requiring assistance should arrange support in advance and confirm whether it is provided by the airline, airport or railway operator.
## Visitor Tips

- Follow “Paris par train” signs for RER B.
