Customs will be at NCE if your luggage has been checked through.

Similar question: we are IAH-CDG arriving CO-10 @ 1045 (hopefully) and departing AF 1748 CDG to BCN @ 1235 which gives us 1 hour 50 min. 28 Nov 08 Departing thanks giving day arriving CDG on Friday morn. The CO flight arrives @ 2A so it looks like we go through immigration before leaving 2A as described above.

Next we go to 2F to depart on AF 1648. (international zone the longest walk from 2A?) If we checked baggage through in IAH, will we have to claim it and re-check in CDG or will it go straight through? What are the chances it will make the 1H 50M connection from CO-10 to AF-1648? Is it best to wait for the bus or walk? How far is the walk? Will we have to clear security when we reach 2F international zone? can the trip through security be avoided by walking or riding the bus? Will CO gold be any help in immigration lines @ 2A and security lines @ 2F?

Also is it possible to get seat assignments on AF 1648 before arrival @ CDG and do CO-Golds get any special preferance with seat assignments?
