CDG to BVA Airport transfer?

Country forums / Western Europe / France

Hi,
I know this question has been asked, but it has been a few years and hopefully something has changed.
What is the best way to get from CDG to Beauvais airport? Are there any coaches?

All I can find is www.shuttledirect.com which charges about 38eu a person... Does this service have a good reputation overall?
Thanks,
Alan

You could, I suppose, take the bus that runs from Beauvais airport to Port Maillot and costs about half of what you quoted. Then you could walk to the Maillot Metro subway stop, ride 11 stops to Chatelet, and catch the RER to CdG. For details:

I assume you want a connection between one of the budget airlines that thinks Beauvais is Paris and a line that actually lands at Paris. This roundabout route does not sound like a bargain and will be costly in time and stress. How does the cost compare to simply flying into CdG to make your connection, with the airlines handling your baggage transfer and a minimum amount of formal paperwork and security?
If, instead, you intend to meet someone landing at CdG and staying in Paris, it will be easier if less sociable to meet at your hotel destination.

If there is a direct bus or scheduled shuttle now, take it because otherwise you have to take a bus from Beauvais to Porte Maillot in Paris and then the Air France coach from Porte Maillot to CDG.

That's already 34€ (17€ for Ryanair bus + 17€ for Air France coach line 2).

Thanks for the replies.. there is a shuttle like will cost us 79euros for the two of us... lesson learned, as it's too late to change flights (it's on Tuesday).
