Private Taxi from CDG Airport: How Pickup Works, Step by Step

Landing at Paris Charles de Gaulle after a long flight, the last thing you want is a queue at the taxi rank or a negotiation over the fare. A private taxi booked in advance takes care of that: a driver is waiting for you, the price is fixed, and the car goes straight to your address. Here is exactly how a pickup with Paris Cab Service works, from booking to drop-off.

1. Book online with your flight number

Choose CDG as the pickup point and enter your destination: an address in Paris, a hotel, a station or Disneyland Paris. Add your flight number, the number of passengers and bags, and the age of any children. You see the fixed price before confirming; for CDG to Paris it starts at €65 for 2 passengers.

2. We track your flight

Your driver follows your flight in real time. If it lands early, the driver is there early; if it is delayed, the pickup time moves with it. You do not need to call or change your booking.

3. Your driver meets you in arrivals

CDG has three terminals (1, 2 and 3), and Terminal 2 is split into several halls. Your driver waits in the arrivals area of your terminal with a sign showing your name. Up to 60 minutes of waiting after landing are included, which covers passport control and baggage claim in most cases.

4. Straight to your destination

The driver helps with your luggage and takes you directly to your address. The journey to central Paris takes about 45 minutes outside peak hours. Because the price is fixed, traffic on the A1 or a detour does not change what you pay.

5. Pay the way you prefer

Card, PayPal, SumUp or cash to the driver: the amount is the one confirmed when you booked, with nothing added on top.

Travelling with children

Child seats and boosters are provided free of charge and fitted before you get in. Just give the children's ages when booking so the driver brings the right seats.

Going somewhere other than Paris?

The same pickup works for every destination from CDG, for example CDG to Disneyland Paris (from €91, about 45 minutes) or a transfer between airports. See every route and price on the CDG transfers page.
