re: Non - Dawg Related.... Need advice

The thing I can tell you about changing in CDG without knowing your gates is each terminal is sterile, meaning you have to go thorough security coming into each one and through French border control going out. The gate numbers vs terminal numbers can be confusing. It is a big place. Also, pray to your god that there are no strikes going on. If there are, ask Delta to connect you via Amsterdam. They should do that for no charge if you ask the right questions. It seems like most of the signs have English on them, but the nomenclature of the terminal vs the gate is confusing.

Take a piss before you land. Get off the plane and get to your connection gate with no stops. Sometimes the busses are frequent and it takes maybe 45 mins from getting off plane to getting to connecting gate. Sometimes there are a ton of people and bus lines.
