Flights to Paris
CDG · Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport
Paris Charles de Gaulle sits 25km northeast of the city at Roissy, with the RER B train reaching central Paris in 35 minutes. Air France runs direct overnight flights from Johannesburg, and CDG is the primary European connection for South Africans flying on to secondary French and regional EU cities. It is also a popular leisure destination in its own right, with visa (Schengen) requirements being the main planning hurdle for South African passport holders.
