Default Train from Bercy to CDG?

Guys/Gals,

I'm looking for instructions on catching the train from Bercy to CDG.
I seem to be striking out on getting the metro app to work for me, so any info would be greatly appreciated.

It will be on a Sunday morning, if that makes any difference. I know it's France so maybe they work on Sunday maybe they don't.

Thanks for any help.

Buy ticket from machine in airport terminal (follow signs). Take the RER or B (blue line) from either terminal 2 or 3 at the airport to Chatelet Les Halles and change to the purple no. 14 line towards Olympiades and get off at Cour Saint-Emillion, not Bercy. Cour Saint-Emillion is closer to the hotel.

Or, do the opposite.

Thank you guys! I appreciate the info....I'm assuming that the train is the best/cheapest way to get to the airport?

Default Maybe another option?

I've never deviated to the Bercy ... I did to the Concorde numerous times. To get from the CDG Terminal to the Concorde you simply walked out in front of the terminal and board the "Air France" bus. The Concorde was the very first stop ... about $10 IIRC. Easy and painless!

The Air France bus seems to be set up to get from the airport to the downtown hotels. It might be easy to get to the Bercy also. Maybe your local Air France reservations office could help?

Was that back in the Falcon days?

It's no longer "the Concorde" and it's about $23, now.

I didn't know the Falcon flew to Paris (the one in France)?

Go to Cour St Emilion metro station by the hotel. Bring cash. Go to ticket vending machine and buy fare to CDG airport with desired terminal selected. Get on line 14 direction St Lazare. Get off at Chatelet. Connect to RER line B to CDG using the same ticket. Keep ticket all the way to the end of the journey. There are several RER B's so ask at the station and get on the right one. Keep an eye on your stuff and be ready for a cozy ride. Did this recently with no problem. Allow plenty of time. I believe transit time is almost an hour.

The train is busy. Cost in the vicinity of 9€. Hope this helps and good luck.

Air France Bus Line 4 goes to Gare de Lyon which is about a 10-15 minute walk from the hotel in Bercy.

Shuttle service between Charles de Gaulle airport, Orly ariport and Paris downtown
