Paris Beauvais
 
My several guidebooks only list CDG and Orly. The Beauvais website's English translation will not pop up on my computer. Can someone tell me how far this is from Paris, is it easily accessible via Metro, is it a big pain in the butt to fly in/out from?

Beauvais is not in/near Paris, not reachable by Metro; regular train from Gare du Nord to Beauvais takes about 74 minutes. For Train schedule, please check: www.sncf.com.

Or airport bus departs from Paris Port Maillot (metro line 1) 3 1/4 hours ahead of flight.

Hi vivi,

If you are flying ryanair, check their website.

You take a bus from Porte Maillot.

I travelled to Beauvais for Ryanair from Paris in June. It is about an hour outside of Paris. If you take the metro to Port Maillot, you go across the street from the big hotel to the parking lot. You will see buses parked there and one will have a sign saying Beauvais on it. These are usually for Ryanair passengers to get to Beauvais. You buy the ticket right from the driver. The website says you can buy the tickets online but often that is not necessary or working. The bus tickets are inexpensive and the buses are comfortable. If it is possible to take another way, I would rather fly out of CDG.
