earlier today after the changes to the French entry rules. I am flying ex-EU from CDG to MEL later this month. I have a BA flight to CDG booked. I thought I had it all worked out by deciding to do the trip hand baggage only and staying airside in CDG to jump on my QR flight the next morning.
As one FTer has cleverly pointed out though, it may be hard to convince BA that I am not staying in France as the ticket is separate to the one I am leaving France on. So I am unsure of what is the most likely outcome here. Are BA likely to allow me to fly if I show proof of the next flight, that leaves from an adjoining terminal (can stay airside) or are they going to demand proof of permission to enter France? Transit for less than 24 hours in the international zone of an airport is listed under “essential reasons” to travel.
