  • In Raleigh, you’ll board your flight to Paris at Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU). On the other hand, in Paris, you’ll land at either Charles De Gaulle Airport (CDG) or Orly Airport (ORY). When booking a flight to cover this route, you should book one that lands at ORY. This is because, at ORY, you’ll encounter less traffic than at CDG.

  • If you’d love to leave your car at RDU, you can do so with ease. If you intend to return from your trip after a couple of days, you can leave your car at any daily and hourly garages near the airport’s main terminal. If, however, you plan on not returning any time soon, you will have to drive to the Park RDU building. In this building, you’ll have the option to choose from ParkRDU Express, ParkRDU Central, ParkRDU Economy 3 & 4, and ParkRDU Premier.
  • RDU, CDG, and ORY airports are all accessible transit hubs. If you have limited mobility issues, you need not worry about struggling to move at any, as they all have wheelchairs, elevators, and ramps. Given that they also have well-trained staff, you’ll be able to get a professional to help you move around in any of these airports.
