Just checked my date - - I went thru CDG on Feb 25. I've never taken a flight that arrived at CDG so early - DL82 which arrives around 6AM, so it seemed like a ton of other international flights arrived around the same time from non-US destinations. I'll surely do my best to NOT transit CDG that early in the future!
Just a side note - - I took that very early arrival to spend a half day in Paris before going onto Berlin. I had a 9 hour layover. Took a shower and had a quickie mini-breakfast the the AF Long-Haul Arrivals Lounge. I arrived at 5:50AM, but with all of the EC immigration hoopla, I didn't get to the RER-B train til around 9:30. It was nuts!
