About 6 months ago, I had a failed connection in CDG. My two options were to take a train to my final destination on my dime, or overnight in CDG and take a morning flight the next day under Right to Care.
I was going for option A, but the gate agent tried to slap me the luggage retrieving fee (I remember 200 € but maybe it was 300 €?). Arguing that I saving them to cost of a hotel + cost of travel fell into deaf ears.
So I went for option B. Might have been bad luck (it's the only time I tried to shorten a trip in CDG), but the agent was quite adamant about it.
