Combining different means of transport to make connecting trips easier provides customers with several different benefits:
- attractive fares with a cheaper single fare than buying a separate train and air ticket,
- earning Miles on the train trip + flight for passengers who are members of the Flying Blue frequent flyer programme,
- time saved thanks to the station?s central location at Charles de Gaulle and check-in possible up to 15 minutes before the train?s departure,
- assistance with connections if the train or flight arrives late and passengers miss a connection.
At the station, passengers are checked in to their final destination and are given their boarding cards for their entire trip. If they have baggage to check in, they can do so directly at the airport at the baggage drop-off counter.
