CDG Questions

I'm traveling to CDG for the first time tomorrow on US and land in T-1. I'm meeting a colleague who is flying AA in T-2. My question is are the 2 terminals connect that I can walk to T-2 or do I have to take a shuttle etc.?

The other question I have is what lounge you would recommend for a *A Gold member. I'll have a little over an hour to kill and would like to spend it in a club rather than aimlessly wondering around the airport. I know there's a UA, LH and Swiss lounge in T-1. Which would you recommend? Thanks!

1. you need to take the automated shuttle (CDGVAL) to travel from CDG1 to CDG2 (8mn). In addition, you need to walk from CDG 2A, which is the terminal used by AA to the CDGVAL station, located close to the main railway (TGV/RER) station at the center of CDG2 (10mn).

2. I am not really familiar with *Alliance at CDG. Unless I am mistaken, LX still operates from CDG 2B, while the LH lounge was undergoing refurbishment.

If you are going to arrive first, one suggested meeting point is the lobby of the Sheraton CDG, which is located practically right atop the TGV/RER/CDGVAL stations.

As JOUY31 has stated above, the AA passenger, once he/she has cleared immigration, can proceed from 2A over to the meeting point. The entire distance is indoors and part of it is served by moving sidewalks. Baggage carts (if needed) can be easily used.

More on the CDGVAL (including a simple map):
