Buy a CDG Express ticket
You can book your ticket up to 24 months in advance, travel on the date and at the time that suit you, and return whenever you like during the following 90 days.
Book and board whenever you like
Your ticket is valid on any CDG Express train you choose. It doesn’t matter if you book months or minutes ahead: just scan your printed or digital ticket at the gates and hop on board.
90 days
Your inbound ticket is valid for 90 days after you use your outbound ticket.
24 months
Once you purchase your ticket, it is valid for 24 months.
Total flexibility
Tickets are valid on any CDG Express train you choose, provided you scan them at the gates before boarding.
CDG Express tickets will be on sale soon.
Scan and board
Every CDG Express ticket you buy online or at the station comes with a unique QR code. It is not linked to a passenger name, and you can scan it on paper or your phone depending on how you buy it.
Simply scan your ticket at the entrance gates at the head of the platform, then glide straight through to the platform and onto the train.
Our CDG Express passenger services staff will be at the gates to help make your way to the train as smooth as possible.
Plan ahead, keep your options open
You can buy your CDG Express ticket on our website or mobile app up to 24 months ahead, or at the station before or on the day you travel.
Your ticket is completely flexible. It is not tied to a specific train, so last-minute delays or changes of plan are not a problem. It is valid for two years, and you can use it whenever you like in either direction during that period.
The benefits of a return ticket
You can buy CDG Express return tickets online or at the station (but cannot buy return tickets with a payment card at the gates). A return ticket includes two separate tickets valid in opposite directions, and you can use the inbound ticket any time during the 90 after your outbound journey. It is ideal if you already know your return date, cuts the hassle and costs less than buying two single tickets.
The CDG Express mobile app is coming soon
You will find all your tickets and receipts in the CDG Express mobile app. You can also manage your journeys, send someone else a ticket in seconds and check fare information whenever you need it – all in one simple app.
