Flights to Paris starting at $300

As a connoisseur of the finer things in life, you seek out quality at its source. Bubbly is best when it is actually Champagne and not sparkling wine; master works of art should be viewed in a gallery instead of a book; and romantic getaways are more starry-eyed when taken in at an exotic locale. From a tour of the legendary vineyards to a morning marveling at the Mona Lisa, a trip to Paris puts the finer things at your feet. Arrive on one of the night flights to Paris, and you'll understand instantly why it's called the "City of Lights." Bright jewels decorate the Eiffel Tower, and the wide boulevards glow with electric fire. If your Paris flights arrive at Charles De Gaulle (CDG) during the day, you'll appreciate how the historic buildings, tree-lined streets, and ornate bridges make this metropolis one of the most visited in Europe. You could spend a lifetime exploring the French capital, so it may be best to prioritize which sights you want to take in and the cuisine you most wish to relish in.

Transportation from CDG

Choose hotels in Paris near CDG airport to minimize travel time from plane to room after your flight to Paris, but remember that accommodations anywhere in the city are within easy reach of the airport due to a superb public transportation system. The quickest way to the city center is to take the RER B train from either Terminal 1 or Terminal 2. You can buy tickets from numerous vending machines, which have BILLETS and TICKETS signs. Keep in mind, though, only cards with smart chips and 4- to 6-digit pin numbers work on these devices. If your card lacks either technology, visit a ticket office to complete your transaction with an employee. The train drops you off at one of five locations, where you can take a Metro subway car and walk to your hotel.
