Hi!
Will be going to Paris on weekend trip Nov 16th (arrive in CDG in morning) until Nov 19th (go to CDG in evening). How will we manage to get to Paris best? Staing in 1er district. Prebook a taxi via hotel? Rent a car? Will there be any transportation lines open to and from CDG-Paris? Trip is not postponable and do not mind walking once in Paris.
Grateful for advice!!

Strike is planned for the 14th.
Get a taxi at the door at CDG. No need to arrange for pick up.
Airport buses tend to work even when other transportation is on strike. RER seems to be first to shut down.

photographe is right, get a taxi into town.
|||
I want to know exactly what transport if any will be running on the 16th. It is urgent. I cannot walk to Cergy Prefecture from Gare du Nord and I can%26#39;t afford an extremely expensive taxi :(

Unfortunately, there is no possible answer to your question. It%26#39;s impossible to know today what the situation on the 16th will be. We don%26#39;t know whether the strike will be actually rolling and we don%26#39;t know what the conditions will be on the various suburban lines.
You will find actual, reliable info in the afternoon of the 15th ...
It%26#39;s fairly obvious that you can%26#39;t walk from Cergy Préfecture to GDN.
But, FWIW, if the RER A is completely shut, there is a bus that runs between Cergy-Pontoise and CDG airport. It is operated by a private company under local authorities%26#39; franchise. It is very unlikely that it will be on strike.

But what may you possibly do in CDG when your desired destination is GDN ? Well, you will have two Air France bus lines to Paris, the 350 bus, the Roissybus, altogether making for a /doable/ though not relaxing, commute.
And way cheaper than the 70€ or so that a Cergy-Paris taxi would cost.

Can you tell me more about the Air France buses from CDG into Paris? I will also be arriving on the morning of the 17th and was wondering how I would get from CDG into the city if the trains are still on strike. It sounds like a bus might be a good option.
If we take a taxi, any idea what the anticipated fare would be? Or how long the taxi lines might be in light of the train strike?
Thanks for the advice!

Taxi lines at CDG are not bad...+/- 15 minutes. It looked like busses at CDG are running, but you will have to be prepared to walk from the drop off point to your hotel, as taxis in Paris are quite dear right now. To me, better to take a taxi right to your hotel. I paid 55euro to 7 eme mid-day on Thursday, and the trip took 65 minutes.
