Transportation into Paris
Mrs. GoSpurs and I will be arriving into CDG on an Air France intraeuropean codeshare as Y pax and leaving three days later as AF first class pax on a Delta award to the US. We have taken the RER train into and out of Paris before with metro connections, etc., but there must be a better, more comfortable way that is still somewhat cost efficient. We're staying about a block from the Gare de Lyon train station. I'm not an AF frequent flyer. Any suggestions?

Sorry for the late action, folks, I've been really busy with work. I'm putting this one in a more appropriate forum.
