Time needed between flights?
I'm thinking of booking a flight from Zurich to Paris (CDG)on Swiss air with a connection on BMI to Belfast. Swiss arrives 11:25 and BMI departs 15:30. Is this enough time between flights?
Thanks for your help. Linda |
Of greater concern to me would be the length of the layover, which is more than four hours -- but yes, it is more than enough time to cover any contingencies you might be able to reasonably anticipate.

Oops, that should have been 13:30 not 15:30. I shouldn't try typing at 1:30 in the morning.

Swiss uses Terminal 2B in CDG, while BMI uses Terminal 1. So, while this should be a non-Schengen transfer, I believe you have to go through French immigration at 2B and then transfer to Terminal 1.
Still 2 hours should be enough. Just know that you're switching terminals. |
Last time I did it, it was an airside bus. 45 mins gate to gate.
Can't remember going through immigration for a non-Schengen international transfer anywhere except in North America or in the UK for transfers to the ROI. Not even in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. |
Thanks for the correction, flanneruk.

Thanks rkkwan for the info on the terminal changes. I had no clue which terminal I would be flying into or approx. time needed.
You've all been a BIG help. Thanks |
