CDG - Is 3Hour enough for non-connecting to land at T1, Followed next T2F

score:1

Accepted answer

Landed on time or more or less 5-10mins (6PM Evening, Thursday) at CDG Terminal-1, 30mins to cover Immigration and customs, 30mins Baggage pickup and 15 mins to exit Terminal 1, CDG-VAL to Terminal 2 - Walked towards Zone 4 - Took around 40mins to reach, Long walk.

With all these timings, I could have taken the 2nd flight, but opted out of it, since I have three big luggages, cannot take the risk of airline losing them within 3 hours of time to report and follow upon it. Maybe if I had only hand-luggage, I would have taken it.

This is very difficult to predict and depends on a lot of factors. If things go well 3 hours should be ok, but it's risky with not a lot of room for errors or mishaps. Personally, I would not book this unless the connecting flight is cheap and easy to change.

I've flown through CDG a few times in the last few months and the experience was all over the place. On one international to Schengen connection, the line at immigration was absolutely horrific and passengers were panicking and missing fligghts. On other occasions it was quick and painless.
