Air France - CDG Arrival - Help

Hi - Does anyone know the international arrivals terminal well for AF? I want to coordinate meeting someone also arriving from the US on AF. Suggestions?
Leaving Tuesday afternoon. Thanks.

You'll both be arriving at the same terminal if you're both flying AF from the U.S. I think it's terminal C, so whoever arrives first should ask at an Air France desk (give flight # and arrival time) where the other person will be exiting from customs. The second person should exit customs and wait.

The arrivals area is not that large. Everyone has to to through Immigration then pick up their luggage and go through customs.

Another option is to meet by the exit to the taxi queue, which is clearly marked, but you could both ask an AF rep where that is if you don't find it by yourselves.

Bon voyage.

The terminal should have an Information desk--that's a good place to meet.

It is usually not this easy; there are 3 terminals at CDG: 1, 2 (with A, B, C, D, E and F) and 3 (charters).

Air France uses CDG2. The letters A,B, C, D denote arrival or departure areas. Both parties are flying AF from the U.S. so will be arriving at the same terminal, same area, just at different times. The first person to arrive needs only to ask an A.F. about the arrival of the other person's flight.

I've met people there who have flown from different states and it hasn't been difficult.
