It is indeed bad to taxi for 20 minutes going/coming from the Polderbaan, but I also flew 70 minutes from CGN to FRA !!! and that was on a LH CRJ, which made it even worse...

CDG by all means is clearly inferior to AMS, but is certainly also bigger and should be compared more with FRA or LHR which even makes CDG looks more than solid...

Oh YEAH !!!! wait until they put the toll booths in
