[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you should be fine. I think both your flights will be in terminal 2 (although you can check that). But also getting from CDG to the south of France you have option (including TGV if needed). [/quote]

Yeah but Air France operations at Terminal 2 are really 5 separate buildings that are a solid 10 minutes in between each, plus walking inside the building.

There are some long distance trains from CDG, but they aren't that many as it's not a main thru station. But yeah a good backup idea. But if going to Nice you are talking a 6 hour train ride, so not exactly an easy alternative.[/quote]

So 15 mins to get off the plane, 20 minutes at immigration, 15 minutes to get to the next building—- that’s not particularly aggressive and OP’s getting there 40 mins before departure.

Could OP miss the flight? Yes, especially if the plane is late. Is it likely if the plane is on time? I don’t think so.  [/quote]

Also have to clear security again going into the Schengen terminal. So add 10 minutes.

Yes it's probably fine if flight is on time. But probably miss it even with just a 30 minute delay. That feels too close personally. But if I was business class, first off the plane and you get expedited passport control, so I'd be more willing in business, or if going somewhere with another flight within a couple of hours to the same destination.[/quote]
