CDG to ORY transfer

Will be flying with my mrs. on award tix between PRG and PTP, having to transfer between CDG and ORY. Now I know that while paying regular fare, the CDG-ORY transfer on Cars AirFrance is included in the price of the flight. As a Platinum FB member, I have that free of charge anyway. But as regards my companion, will we have to pay for her ride or is the transfer included in the "taxes" of the award ticket?

No personal experience here. But my guess would be that AF would regard this as a regular transfer, whether it is on a paid ticket or an award ticket.

And is there a Cars Air France booth at CDG 2 B/D, just like at ORY W? Or is it OK to go direct to the driver just with the itinerary?

Bus transfer

I remember there is a booth at CDG, but not sure of the exact location (I suppose B1).

I suppose that you will not have any problem with the driver if you show the itinerary and your card (even for your companion) !

The transfer desk also for a ticket yourself. If you go to the ticket booth they will tell you "tough luck" you have to buy.
Very annoying and I hope they will change it. Leave enough time! And remember to pick up yourluggage at CDg and be prepared for some (long) check in time and no elite line at orly security lines.

Thanks dekkers01, I have done that before (even experienced a bomb alert at Orly just about the ckin times for most DOM/TOM flights, hence about a 1000 people being driven out of the ckin area). I was mainly interested in eventual differences when flying on award tix.
