In this guide, you will find the essential information you need to organise your arrival at Disneyland® Paris from Paris-Charles de Gaulle or Paris-Orly, choose the most suitable transport option and start your trip with greater peace of mind.

Which airport should you choose to get to Disneyland® Paris?

The two main Paris airports, Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Paris-Orly, both provide access to Disneyland® Paris. The choice of airport mainly depends on your flight, your departure city, your arrival time and how you plan to organise your journey once you arrive.

Paris-Charles de Gaulle is often used for international flights. Paris-Orly also serves many European flights and may be convenient depending on your itinerary.

There is therefore no single ideal airport for all travellers. To prepare your arrival properly, you should mainly consider three key factors:

  • your arrival time in Paris;
  • the amount of luggage you have and the age of the children travelling with you;
  • your exact destination: Disney Park, Disney Hotel, partner hotel or another accommodation option near Disneyland® Paris.

If you have already booked your flight, the most important thing is to plan your journey in advance between the airport and your hotel or arrival point at Disneyland® Paris.

This comparison does not replace the detailed guides from CDG and Orly, but it helps you quickly identify the options best suited to your situation.

Why can the Magical Shuttle bus be practical when arriving at Disneyland® Paris?

For many travellers, arriving at Disneyland® Paris is not just about getting to the Disney Parks. You often need to reach a Disney Hotel, a partner hotel or nearby accommodation, with luggage and sometimes a pushchair.

In this context, the Magical Shuttle bus can be an option to consider, especially if you are arriving at Paris-Charles de Gaulle or Paris-Orly and want to organise your journey before departure.

Before booking, always check the timetables, the stops served and the departure point corresponding to your airport.

Getting to a Disney Hotel or a partner hotel

Before choosing your transport, check your exact destination. Not all travellers go directly to the Disney Parks: many first head to their Disney Hotel, partner hotel or accommodation located near Disneyland® Paris.

This is an important point, as the choice of transport often depends on the stop closest to your hotel. Magical Shuttle serves Disneyland® Paris, the Disney Hotels, several partner hotels and certain nearby destinations such as Val d’Europe or Villages Nature.

Depending on your hotel, it is therefore useful to check:

  • the exact name of your hotel;
  • how close it is to the Disney Parks;
  • the stops served;
  • the available timetables;
  • the luggage handling conditions.

Before departure, remember to check whether your hotel is served and consult the timetable for your arrival airport.

Travelling to Disneyland® Paris with children

With children, arriving at Disneyland® Paris often requires a little more organisation. After a flight, children may be tired, impatient or need a break before starting their visit.

Remember to plan ahead for:

  • the time needed to leave the airport;
  • baggage collection;
  • transporting the pushchair;
  • meal times;
  • your arrival time at the hotel;
  • the first activity planned at Disneyland® Paris.

Well-prepared transport can make the start of your trip easier, especially if you are arriving directly from the airport with several suitcases or young children.

Preparing your visit to Disney Adventure World

Disney Adventure World is one of the experiences to plan ahead for during a stay at Disneyland® Paris, especially if you are travelling with children. With World of Frozen, Marvel Avengers Campus, Worlds of Pixar and the park’s other themed areas, it can be helpful to identify your priorities before you arrive.

If your flight arrives in the morning or early afternoon, you may be tempted to start your visit on the first day. In this case, your choice of transport from the airport becomes even more important: a simple, well-organised journey can help you enjoy the rest of the day more comfortably.
