I'm concerned there's not enough time to clear customs and recheck baggage. Has anyone had similiar experiences with this connection? Any help would be appreciated.
Welcome!
This thread may be of some help regarding your CDG connection. As far as two different itineraries, they most likely can check bags all the way through, especially since they are on SkyTeam carriers which have an interline agreement. You may have to "re-check in" in CDG, but you should be able to have you bags transfered.
