Terminal 1 (T-1)
This circular terminal has three key floors—arrival (arrivées) on the top floor, and two
floors for departures (départs) below. The terminal's round shape can be confusing—if
you feel like you're going around in circles, you probably are.

the TI (door 6, ask where to buy a Paris Museum Pass). Walk clockwise to find ground
transportation: Air France and RoissyBus (door 34), car rental counters (doors 24-30),
and taxis (door 24). To find the Disneyland shuttle bus, follow CDGVAL signs to the free
CDGVAL shuttle train on floor 1; take it to T-2, then walk to T-2E/F, door 8.
Departure Levels — (niveaux départ) : Scan the departure screen to find out which
hall you should go to for check in. Halls 1-4 are on floor 2, and 5-6 are downstairs on
floor 1. Also on floor 1 are the CDGVAL shuttle train, cafés, a post office (PTT), phar-
macy, boutiques, and a handy grocery. Boarding gates and duty-free shopping are located
on floor 3, which is only accessible with a boarding pass.
Terminal 2 (T-2)
This long, horseshoe-shaped terminal is divided into six halls, labeled A through F . It's a
busy place, so take a deep breath and follow signage carefully. The orange ADP informa-
tion desks are located near gate 6/8 in each hall (ask where to buy a Paris Museum Pass).
Taxi stops are well signed. To locate bus stops for Air France and RoissyBus—marked on
the map on here —follow Paris by Bus signs. For the Disneyland shuttle, follow signs to
T-2E/F, door 8.
T-2 has a train station, with RER suburban trains into Paris (described later), as well
as longer-distance trains to the rest of France (including high-speed TGV trains). It's loc-
ated between T-2C/D and T-2E/F, below the Sheraton Hotel (prepare for a long walk to
reach your train).
Car-rental offices, post offices, pharmacies, and ATMs are all well-signed. T-2E/F
has several duty-free shopping arcades, and other T-2 halls have smaller duty-free shops.
You can stash your bags at Baggage du Monde, located above the train station in T-2, but
