I'm booked on BUD-CDG-ATL-STL in January 2022. Yeah, I know, this itinerary will probably change 657 times (if I fly it at all), but I still have questions.
First leg is on Air France, second two are on Delta. I have 1h10m in CDG to transfer. Is this doable? What piers will I be arriving from/departing out of? Will there be any screenings or checkpoints going from Schengen Area Europe to international?
I'm in Eurobiz on AF and Delta One on DL, if it helps.
Yes, 1h10 is totally doable. You will arrive in 2F and will have to go to 2E, either concourse K, L or M. You will have to gonthrough passport control, as CDG will be the point of exit of Schengen area. But you won't have to go through security.

Secondly, never connect through CDG. The airport (not airline) staff is rude and not at all helpful. I have too many rotten stories about CDG.
Since your trip is a ways out see if there are options through AMS. A great airport IMHO.
It should be time to stop to tell that kind of horror stories that were may be true 15 years ago but that are totally wrong now. Connecting in CDG intra-Skyteam is very easy for many years now.
