I am moving to Paris and will be arriving with quite a bit of stuff. How much do I tip the porters??? <BR> <BR>Thanks, <BR>Kelly

Big question for you : in which type of hotel will you be staying ???

Sorry, I really meant at the airport. The hotel is a 2*, so not even sure they would have one there...

Does anyone know???? <BR> <BR>thanks, <BR>Kelly

I have no idea as I've never heard of nor seen porters at the airport. Where are you going to get them from? Without other info, I'd tip about what I tip them in a hotel (and I don't go deluxe), which is about $1 for a large bag. Don't know if that's cheap or not, I rarely even stay in hotels with bellboys, to be honest, but occasionally I do. Last month I did by accident and I tipped the guy about $1.50 in Prague (one 21" pilot case and a small carryon which I could have carried but he stuck it on the cart), however, that's a lot more money in Prague than in Paris.

Kelly, <BR>I have never seen porters at either major Paris airport either, there are do it yourself carts available. Maybe you can consider shipping a lot of your belongings ahead, or have them arrive after you get settled.
