Still photos from my time lapse of the connections walk from CDG T2 A51 arrival to departure at the same gate.
The whole process took max 15 minutes. YMMV if you arrive elsewhere…
Leaving the gate before entering the revolving door which on arrival is set to funnel
people into connections/arrivals:
Through the revolving door down a short corridor:
then down an escalator/steps:
Down the steps, around a corner and along another short corridor:
before climbing more steps to an area where you can check your connecting gate:
where there’s a desk. I assume this is a CDG staff desk so I wouldn’t assume they could do much with BA boarding passes or tickets. Which is why we ensured all document checks had been done in LHR for the CDG-LHR return leg:
Down more steps again:
this time into a large security check hall where boarding passes are checked and bags are scanned:
I stopped videoing here because I didn’t want to be told to delete my footage! After this check there’s an escalator back up to the departure gates. You walk through a duty free shop a bit like in LHR and then access the departure side of the gates we saw through the glass wall when going through the revolving door upon arrival.
