Connection at CDG
Hi,
Looking for an Awrd Flight in the app yesterday a bargain ZRH-CDG-DFW popped up for 70k in business.
Snagged it (today the same flight is a multiple of the 70k) but then noticed a 1:10h connection.
EU Passport / US Greencard / Hand Luggage Only / Business > Sat 9:10am arrival from ZRH into 2F and 10:20am departure to DFW in 2E
When trying to gather info online it seems as if there is a Passport check (so I could use the machines) but no additional security check needed. Is that correct? Will 70min be doable (quick walker)? And any tips on what to do or to avoid?
Thanks!

No issue on this connection. Low risk with the plane as the plane will arrive the day before.
On not-crowded day, it can be done in 20mn from gate to gate (high probability that it departs from K-concourse). Only passeport control, no security.

Great! I always remembered CDG as this huge, complicated, ... airport. Happy that it seems to be close and easy
