CDG is my home airport and I have to agree that all the assesments that lean towards calling CDG horrible are spot on. I can't count the times that my bags don't show up and I get them day(s) later. Sometimes it just easier. Having to fly out of there all the time is tedious at best.

Yes, that one terminal is close to the public transit but that's about the only thing that the whole airport has going for it.
