'''Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport''' {{Airport codes|CDG|LFPG}} ({{lang-fr|Aéroport Paris-Charles de Gaulle}}), also known as '''Roissy Airport''' (or just ''Roissy'' in French), in the [[Paris]] area, is one of the world's principal aviation centres, as well as [[France]]'s main international [[airport]]. It is named after [[Charles de Gaulle]] (1890-1970), leader of the [[Free French Forces]] and founder of the [[French Fifth Republic]]. It is located within portions of several communes, including [[Roissy-en-France|Roissy]], 25 km to the north-east of Paris.
'''Jonathan Denis''' (born [[September 22]], [[1975]] in [[Regina, Saskatchewan]]) is a [[Canada|Canadian]] politician and current Member of the [[Legislative Assembly of Alberta]] representing the constituency of [[Calgary Egmont|Calgary-Egmont]] as a [[Progressive Conservative Party of Alberta|Progressive Conservatives]]. He was first elected in the [[Alberta general election, 2008|2008 provincial election]].


In 2007, Charles de Gaulle Airport is number one in terms of aircraft movements in Europe with 552,721 landings and take-offs,<ref>http://www.airports.org/cda/aci_common/display/main/aci_content07_c.jsp?zn=aci&cp=1-5-54-57_666_2__</ref> above [[Frankfurt International Airport|Frankfurt]] (492,569) and [[Barajas International Airport|Madrid]] (483,284). In terms of cargo traffic, Charles de Gaulle Airport is also number one in Europe with 2,297,896 [[tonnes]] (2,532,970 US tons),<ref>http://www.airports.org/cda/aci_common/display/main/aci_content07_c.jsp?zn=aci&cp=1-5-54-4819_666_2__</ref> just above Frankfurt (2,169,025 tonnes), and above [[Amsterdam Schiphol Airport]] (1,651,385 tonnes) and Heathrow (1,395,909 tonnes). In terms of passenger traffic, Charles de Gaulle Airport ranked second in Europe with 59,919,383 passengers, <ref>http://www.airports.org/cda/aci_common/display/main/aci_content07_c.jsp?zn=aci&cp=1-5-54-55_666_2__</ref> behind London's [[Heathrow Airport]] (68,068,554), and above [[Frankfurt International Airport|Frankfurt]] (54,161,856) and [[Madrid Barajas International Airport|Madrid]] (52,143,275).
==Early life==


==Geography==
Denis was born September 22, 1975 in [[Regina, Saskatchewan|Regina]]. He pursued a university education, obtaining a commerce degree from the University of Regina in 1997 and a law degree from the University of Saskatchewan in 2000. Prior to becoming an MLA, Denis was a senior associate, specializing in government relations, at [[Miller Thomson LLP]], a major national law firm. He was also the President of a national communications firm which he founded with Member of Parliament [[Pierre Poilievre]].
Charles de Gaulle Airport extends over 32.38 km² (12.5 square miles) of land. The choice of this vast area was made based on the limited number of potential relocations and expropriations and the possibility to further expand the airport in the future. It straddles three ''[[département in France|départements]]'' and six [[commune in France|communes]]:
*[[Seine-et-Marne]] ''département'': communes of [[Le Mesnil-Amelot]] (Terminals 2E, 2F), [[Mauregard]] (Terminals 1, 3), [[Mitry-Mory]]
*[[Seine-Saint-Denis]] ''département'': commune of [[Tremblay-en-France]] (Terminals 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D)
*[[Val-d'Oise]] ''département'': communes of [[Roissy-en-France]] and [[Épiais-lès-Louvres]]


Management of the airport is solely under the authority of ''[[Aéroports de Paris]]'', which also manages [[Orly Airport]], [[Le Bourget Airport]], and several smaller airports in the suburbs of Paris.
During the boom in Calgary real estate in the early 2000's, Denis made close to a million dollars in residential real estate.


==Political career==
== History ==
The planning and construction phase of what was known then as ''Aéroport de Paris Nord'' (Paris North Airport) began in 1966. On [[March 8]], [[1974]], the airport, renamed Charles de Gaulle International Airport, began service. Terminal 1 was built to an [[avant-garde]] design of a ten-floor high circular building surrounded by seven satellite buildings each with four gates. The main architect was [[Paul Andreu]], who was also in charge of the extensions during the following decades.


The grassy lands on which the airport is located are notorious for [[rabbit]]s and [[hare]]s, which can be seen by aeroplane passengers at certain times of the day. The airport organizes periodic hunts and captures to keep the population to manageable levels.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.alsapresse.com/jdj/97/10/01/IGF/1/article_2.html |title=Journal L'Alsace / Le Pays |publisher=Alsapresse.com |date= |accessdate=2008-09-07}}</ref>
Denis first became interested in politics as a teenager. In 1995, he was a staffer of former Saskatchewan Leader of the Opposition, [[Lynda Haverstock]]; however, he later abandoned the Liberal party in favour of the Conservatives when the Liberals joined forces with the socialist NDP to form a coalition government. Denis first sought public office in the [[Alberta general election, 2008|2008 provincial election]] in the constituency of [[Calgary Egmont|Calgary-Egmont]] and received 44% of the vote. During the campaign, Denis received endorsements from Conservative Members of Parliament [[Jason Kenney]] and [[Lee Richardson]], whose ridings overlap upon [[Calgary Egmont|Calgary-Egmont]], as well as Calgary Alderman Ric McIver and provincial cabinet minister [[Ted Morton]]. He currently serves as a member of the Cabinet Policy Committee on Health, the Standing Committee on Health, the Standing Committee on Public Accounts, the Land-Use Framework MLA Committee, the Alaska/Alberta Bilateral Council, and the Private Members Business House Strategy Committee. In June 2008, [[Ed Stelmach|Premier Stelmach]] appointed Denis as the shadow MLA for [[Calgary Currie|Calgary-Currie]].


==Personal life==
===Corporate identity===
[[Image:Aeroports de Paris logo.svg|200px|left|thumb|The new logo of Aéroports de Paris used since 6 June 2005]]The [[Frutiger]] [[typeface]] was commissioned for use in the airport, and implemented on confusing signs throughout the building in 1975. Initially called ''Roissy'', it was renamed for its designer [[Adrian Frutiger]].


Until 2005, every [[public address|P.A. announcement]] made at Terminal 1 was preceded by a distinctive chime, nicknamed "Indicatif Roissy" and composed by [[Bernard Parmegiani]] in 1971. ([http://www.amazon.fr/dp/B0006NH6BC Audio sample]) The chime can be heard in the [[Roman Polanski]] film [[Frantic (film)|Frantic]].
Denis has been a volunteer with the Heart and Stroke Foundation, Multiple Sclerosis Society, Canadian Cancer Society, and has been a health care champion for patients throughout Calgary. He has also served as a Director of the Institute of Public Sector Accountability, a group that promotes government accountability.<ref name="leg bio">{{cite web|url=http://www.assembly.ab.ca/net/index.aspx?p=mla_bio&rnumber=07|title=Denis' Legislative Assembly of Alberta biography}}</ref>


===Mehran Karimi Nasseri===
Denis is a member of Canadian Legion No. 285 in his riding.
On [[26 August]] [[1988]], [[Mehran Karimi Nasseri]] found himself held at Charles de Gaulle airport by immigration. He claimed he was a refugee, but had had his refugee papers stolen. After years of bureaucratic wrangling, it was concluded that Nasseri had entered the airport legally and could not be expelled from its walls; but since he had no papers, there was no country to deport him to either, leaving him in residential limbo. Nasseri continued to live within the confines of the airport until 2006, even though French authorities had since made it possible for him to leave if he so wished<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.snopes.com/travel/airline/airport.htm |title=Between 1988 and 2006, a man lived at a Paris airport. |date=July 2, 2008 |publisher=Snopes.com |accessdate=2008-09-07}}</ref> . He was the inspiration for the 2004 film [[The Terminal]]. In July 2006 he was hospitalised and later taken care of by charities; he did not return to the airport. His present whereabouts are unknown.


===Collapse of Terminal 2E===
==Election results==
Terminal 2E, with a daring design and wide open spaces, was CDG's newest addition. On [[23 May]], [[2004]], not long after its inauguration, a portion of Terminal 2E's ceiling collapsed early in the day, near Gate E50, killing four people.<ref>{{cite news | url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/3743081.stm | title='Fresh cracks' at Paris airport | publisher=BBC News |date=2004-05-24}}</ref> The [[China|Chinese]] government reported that two of the dead were Chinese travellers, and another of the dead was reported to be of [[Czech Republic|Czech]] nationality. Three other people were injured in the collapse. Terminal 2E had been inaugurated in 2003 after some delays in construction and was designed by [[Paul Andreu]]. Administrative and judicial enquiries were started. Andreu also designed Terminal 3 at [[Dubai International Airport]], which collapsed while under construction on [[September 28]], [[2004]].
{| class="wikitable"

| colspan="3" align=center|'''[[Alberta general election, 2008|2008 Alberta general election]] results ([[Calgary Egmont|Calgary-Egmont]])'''
Before this accident, ADP had been planning for a [[initial public offering|public stock offering]] in 2005 with the new terminal as a major attraction for investors. The partial collapse and indefinite closing of the terminal just before the beginning of summer could seriously hurt the airport's business plan.
| colspan="2"|<font style="font-size: 90%;">'''Turnout 43.7%'''</font>

In February 2005, the results from the administrative inquiry were published. The experts pointed out that there was no single fault, but rather a number of causes for the collapse, in a design that had little margin for safety. The enquiry found the concrete vaulted roof was not resilient enough and had been pierced by metallic pillars, and some openings weakened the structure. Sources close to the enquiry also disclosed that the whole building chain had worked as close to the limits as possible, so as to reduce costs. Paul Andreu denounced the building companies for having not correctly prepared the reinforced concrete.

On [[March 17]], [[2005]], ADP decided to tear down and rebuild the whole part of Terminal 2E (the "jetty") of which a section had collapsed, at a cost of approximately €100 million<ref>[http://news.tf1.fr/news/france/0,,3208103,00.html Infos en direct et en vid&eacute;o, l'actualit&eacute; en temps r&eacute;el - tf1.fr]{{Dead link|date=September 2008}}</ref> . The reconstruction will replace the innovative concrete tube style of the jetty with a more traditional steel and glass structure. During reconstruction, two temporary departure lounges have been constructed in the vicinity of the terminal that replicate the capacity of 2E before the collapse. The terminal reopened completely on [[March 30]] [[2008]].

===Incidents===
* On [[19 September]] [[1989]], [[UTA Flight 772]] exploded over the [[Sahara Desert]] while on the second leg of the [[Brazzaville]]-[[Ndjamena]]-Paris route, killing all on board.
* On [[24 December]], [[1994]], [[Air France Flight 8969]] from [[Algiers]] to Paris was hijacked at [[Houari Boumedienne Airport]] before it had even taken off. It was eventually flown to [[Marseille]], where hijackers wanted it to be refuelled in order to run it into the [[Eiffel Tower]]. French commandos intervened and shot and killed all four hijackers.
* On [[17 July]], [[1996]], [[TWA Flight 800]], which was bound for CDG from [[John F. Kennedy International Airport]] in [[New York City|New York]], exploded near [[Long Island]].
* On [[25 July]] [[2000]], [[Air France Flight 4590]], a [[Concorde]] from Roissy to JFK crashed into the farthest hotel of Hotelissimo in [[Gonesse]] after coming in contact with material that had been left by another plane on the runway. The Concorde was on a [[Germany|German]] charter flight for a tour company. Everyone on board died, as did four people on the ground.
* On [[22 December]], [[2001]], an [[Al-Qaida]] terrorist named [[Richard Reid (terrorist)|Richard Reid]] tried to ignite explosives hidden in his shoes onboard [[American Airlines]] [[American Airlines Flight 63|Flight 63]], which was headed from CDG to [[Miami International Airport]] in [[Miami, Florida]]. He was subdued after a passenger smelled sulfur.

==Terminals==
{{Inappropriate tone|section|date=December 2007}}
[[Image:CharlesDeGaulle2F.jpg|thumb|left|400px|Terminal 2 Hall F. Wide open spaces characterise Terminal 2.]]
Charles de Gaulle International Airport has three terminals. Terminal 1 ({{coord|49.013984|2.541850}}) is the oldest. Terminal 2 ({{coord|49.004391|2.576822}}) was built for Air France, but now hosts other airlines. The third terminal (T3, formerly T9) hosts charter and low cost airlines.

'''Terminal 1''' has a single main building for check-in and baggage reclaim with 7 satellites for arrivals and departures. Each satellite can handle about 5 aircraft at any given time. Underground walkways with moving sidewalks connect the satellites to the main building. Terminal 1 was built to an avant-garde design which is maintained today even though interior sections of the building have been face lifted and modernized.

'''Terminal 2''' today consists of multiple terminals joined together by at ground or below ground passageways. The six terminals consist of 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 2E and 2F. Terminal 2 also has an [[RER]] and [[TGV]] station underneath in the middle of all the halls. Passengers may reach trains going to Paris or to other French and foreign cities by going through passages and [[moving walkway]]s.

In 2006, the French government expressed the wish to designate certain terminals of French airports as "high-security" terminals that would handle flights to sensitive locations, such as the [[United States of America|US]] and [[Israel]]. Terminal 2E is planned to be the high security terminal at CDG with the installation of more rigorous security controls planned during the course of 2007. At the start of the Winter timetable in 2006, [[Air France]] moved most of its flights to the US to 2E.

[[Image:CDG2F P4160059.JPG|thumb|right|200px|[[Flight information display system|FIDS]] at Charles de Gaulle International Airport]]

The RER station for Terminal 1 ({{coord|49.010083|2.559757}}) is quite distant from Terminal 1, and this terminal must, in fact, be reached using the free [[CDGVAL]] automatic light rail system ([[VAL]]); previously, shuttle buses were used.
Started on [[April 4]] [[2007]], CDGVAL links all the three terminals, though as there is only a single station for Terminal 2, passengers have to walk long distances from the CDGVAL station to the more distant halls such as 2B.

==Expansion plans 2007-2012==

Apart from the reconstruction of Terminal 2E, two major terminal extensions are underway as of 2008.

The completion of giant '''750-m long Satellite 3''' (or S3) to the immediate East of Terminals 2E and 2F provides further jetways for large capacity airliners, and specifically the [[Airbus A380]]. Check-in and baggage handling are provided by the existing infrastructure in Terminals 2E and 2F. Satellite 3, which construction could be seen by arriving passengers at Terminals 2E and 2F, was opened in part in [[June 27]], [[2007]] and fully operational in September 2007. A similar in size and scope Satellite 4 is planned to open in 2012 to provide additional capacity, again relying on the brand new, 100% automated check-in and baggage handling infrastructure of 2E and 2F. This facility, built in collaboration with Air France-KLM, is so large (it's the second largest airline terminal in Europe after Madrid Barajas' T4 and before BA T5 at London Heathrow) it needed to open in phases in order to be fully operational by the end of Summer 2007. The high tech, futuristic concrete-steel-and-glass building provides relief to millions of passengers who do not have to endure anymore annoying and lengthy bus rides to board and disembark from flights. The new S3 terminal also means faster transfer times to connecting flights and fewer lost bags.<ref name=NewBoardingComplex> {{cite web | publisher=businessweek.com|title=Fixing de Gaulle Will Lift Air France-KLM| url=http://www.businessweek.com/globalbiz/content/jun2007/gb20070622_884614.htm|accessdate=2007-06-25}}</ref>

Construction began on a new terminal building, '''Terminal 2G''', to the east of the S3 construction site in September 2006 with the first stone of the new building itself laid in March 2007. It will be connected to the Terminal 2 complex by shuttle buses and eventually an extension of the CDGVAL shuttle train service due to open in Spring 2007. 2G will be a Schengen terminal (and thus have no customs control) and will handle Air France regional and European traffic and provide small capacity planes (up to 150 passengers) with a faster turn-around time than is currently possible by enabling them to park close to the new terminal building and boarding passengers primarily by bus. Opening is planned for the Winter season of 2008.

Future use of Terminal 2 by Air France constantly evolves thanks to the development and opening of the S3 complex and the new 2G section of Terminal 2. On [[March 30]] [[2008]], the reopening of Terminal2E was completed allowing maximum passenger activity and full airport services. Air France has begun to shift traffic to use at full capacity Terminals 2C,2D,2E and 2F and eventually shall cease operations from terminals 2A and 2B which will continue to be used by other carriers.

==Ground transportation==
[[Aéroport Charles de Gaulle 2 – TGV|CDG is connected]] to the [[RER]] [[urban rail]] network, providing services into central Paris three to four times per hour, and the [[high-speed rail]] [[TGV]] network. [[SNCF French Rail]] operates direct TGV services to several French stations from CDG, including [[Angers]], [[Avignon]], [[Bordeaux]], [[Dijon]], [[Grenoble]], [[Le Mans]], [[Lille]], [[Lyon]]s, [[Marseilles]], [[Montpellier]], [[Nantes]], [[Nîmes]], [[Poitiers]], [[Rennes]], [[Strasbourg]], [[Toulouse]], [[Tours]], and [[Valence, Drôme|Valence]].

CDG airport is connected to [[Paris]] by the [[RER B]] suburban train, offering both non-stop services (going directly from the airport to [[Paris]] [[Gare du Nord]] and beyond) and services stopping at intermediate stations. The faster trains take about 30 minutes to the Gare du Nord, the stopping trains about 35. There are two RER B stations inside the airport:
* one, called '''Paris Aéroport Charles de Gaulle 1''', is located inside Roissypôle (an area with hotels and company offices), besides Terminal 3, and is the preferred way to access terminals 1 and 3;
* the other, called '''Paris Aéroport Charles de Gaulle 2''', is located beside the TGV station under Terminal 2.

Terminal 2 includes a [[Train à grande vitesse|TGV]] station with high-speed trains connecting to various destinations in France and via Lille Europe to Brussels<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.airfrance.be/BE/en/common/resainfovol/avion_train/avion_train_ligne_cdgbru.htm |title=Paris-Charles de Gaulle ↔ Brussels |publisher=Air France |accessdate=2008-09-07}}</ref> .

Terminals 1, 2, the Roissypôle / Terminal 3 RER station, and parking lots P<sub>X</sub> and P<sub>R</sub> are connected by the free [[CDGVAL]] automatic shuttle. CDGVAL replaces free shuttle buses.

Roissybus, operated by [[RATP]], departs from terminals 1 and 2 and goes non-stop to Paris, behind the [[Opéra Garnier]].

There is a bus and coach station in Roissypôle, next to the RER B station. Buses departing from this station include RATP lines 350 and 351 going to Paris, and the bus going to the [[Parc Astérix]].

RER B both serves CDG airport (with a travelling clientele) as well as northern suburbs of Paris. The line, operated by [[SNCF]], suffers from slowness and saturation. For these reasons, French authorities have started two projects: one, [http://www.cdgexpress.equipement.gouv.fr/ CDG Express] (opening between 2012 and 2015), will link CDG to Paris [[Gare de l'Est]] with trains specifically designed for air travellers; the other, [http://www.modernisation-rerb.com/ RER B Nord Plus], will modernize and streamline the northern branches of RER B.

==Alternate Airports==
The three other airports serving [[Paris]] are [[Orly Airport]], the most important after CDG, [[Paris-Beauvais-Tillé Airport]], which mainly serves [[low-cost airline]]s, and [[Paris - Le Bourget Airport]] for [[General aviation]] ([[business jets]]).

==Other facts of interest==

CDG airport is not well perceived by mostly forein air travellers because the airport's service is not in the international standards. Many travellers mostly who had a connection don't find their way to catch their connect flight as a result they loose their flight due to unclear signage, long waiting in the passeport control and the cold hospitality of French staff with an English speaking not understandable.


===Appearances in films and other works===

* In the video of the [[U2]] song "[[Beautiful Day]]" the band can be seen walking through the airport. The cover photo for their album ''[[All That You Can't Leave Behind]]'' was also taken there.

* The airport [[tarmac]] was used in the [[Disneyland Paris]] attraction film ''[[Le Visionarium]]'', featuring an [[Air France]] [[Concorde]] and a [[Union des Transports Aériens]] [[DC-10]].

* Many scenes were filmed at the airport for the film ''[[The Concorde: Airport '79]]''.

* The distinctive escalator tubes of Terminal 1 are featured in the films ''[[Private Benjamin]]'' and ''[[French Kiss]]'', and are used as the backdrop of the album cover for ''[[I Robot (album)|I&nbsp;Robot]]'' by [[The Alan Parsons Project]].

* The check-in area of Terminal 2F is a favourite film location for French directors and can frequently be seen in French films that require an airport location.

* The film ''[[Jet Lag (film)|Décalage Horaire]]'' is set primarily at the airport and a nearby hotel.

* The movie [[Frantic]] feature a scene in terminal one when harrison ford and the french lady pick up a lost bagage.

===Photography restrictions===
On [[November 7]] [[2005]], [[préfet|prefectoral]] decision 05-4979 was issued, relating specifically to Charles de Gaulle airport. The law prohibits photographs being taken for private use of anything moving (e.g. aircraft) or not moving (e.g. buildings) within the "zone reservée" (the restricted area) from the "zone publique" (the public area).

Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport (IATA: CDG, ICAO: LFPG) (French: Aéroport Paris-Charles de Gaulle), also known as Roissy Airport (or just Roissy in French), in the Paris area, is one of the world's principal aviation centres, as well as France's main international airport. It is named after Charles de Gaulle (1890-1970), leader of the Free French Forces and founder of the French Fifth Republic. It is located within portions of several communes, including Roissy, 25 km to the north-east of Paris.

In 2007, Charles de Gaulle Airport is number one in terms of aircraft movements in Europe with 552,721 landings and take-offs,[1] above Frankfurt (492,569) and Madrid (483,284). In terms of cargo traffic, Charles de Gaulle Airport is also number one in Europe with 2,297,896 tonnes (2,532,970 US tons),[2] just above Frankfurt (2,169,025 tonnes), and above Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (1,651,385 tonnes) and Heathrow (1,395,909 tonnes). In terms of passenger traffic, Charles de Gaulle Airport ranked second in Europe with 59,919,383 passengers, [3] behind London's Heathrow Airport (68,068,554), and above Frankfurt (54,161,856) and Madrid (52,143,275).

Geography

Charles de Gaulle Airport extends over 32.38 km² (12.5 square miles) of land. The choice of this vast area was made based on the limited number of potential relocations and expropriations and the possibility to further expand the airport in the future. It straddles three départements and six communes:

Management of the airport is solely under the authority of Aéroports de Paris, which also manages Orly Airport, Le Bourget Airport, and several smaller airports in the suburbs of Paris.

History

The planning and construction phase of what was known then as Aéroport de Paris Nord (Paris North Airport) began in 1966. On March 8, 1974, the airport, renamed Charles de Gaulle International Airport, began service. Terminal 1 was built to an avant-garde design of a ten-floor high circular building surrounded by seven satellite buildings each with four gates. The main architect was Paul Andreu, who was also in charge of the extensions during the following decades.

The grassy lands on which the airport is located are notorious for rabbits and hares, which can be seen by aeroplane passengers at certain times of the day. The airport organizes periodic hunts and captures to keep the population to manageable levels.[4]

Corporate identity

The Frutiger typeface was commissioned for use in the airport, and implemented on confusing signs throughout the building in 1975. Initially called Roissy, it was renamed for its designer Adrian Frutiger.

Until 2005, every P.A. announcement made at Terminal 1 was preceded by a distinctive chime, nicknamed "Indicatif Roissy" and composed by Bernard Parmegiani in 1971. (Audio sample) The chime can be heard in the Roman Polanski film Frantic.

Mehran Karimi Nasseri

On 26 August 1988, Mehran Karimi Nasseri found himself held at Charles de Gaulle airport by immigration. He claimed he was a refugee, but had had his refugee papers stolen. After years of bureaucratic wrangling, it was concluded that Nasseri had entered the airport legally and could not be expelled from its walls; but since he had no papers, there was no country to deport him to either, leaving him in residential limbo. Nasseri continued to live within the confines of the airport until 2006, even though French authorities had since made it possible for him to leave if he so wished[5] . He was the inspiration for the 2004 film The Terminal. In July 2006 he was hospitalised and later taken care of by charities; he did not return to the airport. His present whereabouts are unknown.

Collapse of Terminal 2E

Terminal 2E, with a daring design and wide open spaces, was CDG's newest addition. On 23 May, 2004, not long after its inauguration, a portion of Terminal 2E's ceiling collapsed early in the day, near Gate E50, killing four people.[6] The Chinese government reported that two of the dead were Chinese travellers, and another of the dead was reported to be of Czech nationality. Three other people were injured in the collapse. Terminal 2E had been inaugurated in 2003 after some delays in construction and was designed by Paul Andreu. Administrative and judicial enquiries were started. Andreu also designed Terminal 3 at Dubai International Airport, which collapsed while under construction on September 28, 2004.

Before this accident, ADP had been planning for a public stock offering in 2005 with the new terminal as a major attraction for investors. The partial collapse and indefinite closing of the terminal just before the beginning of summer could seriously hurt the airport's business plan.

In February 2005, the results from the administrative inquiry were published. The experts pointed out that there was no single fault, but rather a number of causes for the collapse, in a design that had little margin for safety. The enquiry found the concrete vaulted roof was not resilient enough and had been pierced by metallic pillars, and some openings weakened the structure. Sources close to the enquiry also disclosed that the whole building chain had worked as close to the limits as possible, so as to reduce costs. Paul Andreu denounced the building companies for having not correctly prepared the reinforced concrete.

On March 17, 2005, ADP decided to tear down and rebuild the whole part of Terminal 2E (the "jetty") of which a section had collapsed, at a cost of approximately €100 million[7] . The reconstruction will replace the innovative concrete tube style of the jetty with a more traditional steel and glass structure. During reconstruction, two temporary departure lounges have been constructed in the vicinity of the terminal that replicate the capacity of 2E before the collapse. The terminal reopened completely on March 30 2008.

Incidents

Terminals

Terminal 2 Hall F. Wide open spaces characterise Terminal 2.

Charles de Gaulle International Airport has three terminals. Terminal 1 (49°00′50″N 2°32′31″E / 49.013984°N 2.541850°E / 49.013984; 2.541850) is the oldest. Terminal 2 (49°00′16″N 2°34′37″E / 49.004391°N 2.576822°E / 49.004391; 2.576822) was built for Air France, but now hosts other airlines. The third terminal (T3, formerly T9) hosts charter and low cost airlines.

Terminal 1 has a single main building for check-in and baggage reclaim with 7 satellites for arrivals and departures. Each satellite can handle about 5 aircraft at any given time. Underground walkways with moving sidewalks connect the satellites to the main building. Terminal 1 was built to an avant-garde design which is maintained today even though interior sections of the building have been face lifted and modernized.

Terminal 2 today consists of multiple terminals joined together by at ground or below ground passageways. The six terminals consist of 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 2E and 2F. Terminal 2 also has an RER and TGV station underneath in the middle of all the halls. Passengers may reach trains going to Paris or to other French and foreign cities by going through passages and moving walkways.

In 2006, the French government expressed the wish to designate certain terminals of French airports as "high-security" terminals that would handle flights to sensitive locations, such as the US and Israel. Terminal 2E is planned to be the high security terminal at CDG with the installation of more rigorous security controls planned during the course of 2007. At the start of the Winter timetable in 2006, Air France moved most of its flights to the US to 2E.

FIDS at Charles de Gaulle International Airport

The RER station for Terminal 1 (49°00′36″N 2°33′35″E / 49.010083°N 2.559757°E / 49.010083; 2.559757) is quite distant from Terminal 1, and this terminal must, in fact, be reached using the free CDGVAL automatic light rail system (VAL); previously, shuttle buses were used. Started on April 4 2007, CDGVAL links all the three terminals, though as there is only a single station for Terminal 2, passengers have to walk long distances from the CDGVAL station to the more distant halls such as 2B.

Expansion plans 2007-2012

Apart from the reconstruction of Terminal 2E, two major terminal extensions are underway as of 2008.

The completion of giant 750-m long Satellite 3 (or S3) to the immediate East of Terminals 2E and 2F provides further jetways for large capacity airliners, and specifically the Airbus A380. Check-in and baggage handling are provided by the existing infrastructure in Terminals 2E and 2F. Satellite 3, which construction could be seen by arriving passengers at Terminals 2E and 2F, was opened in part in June 27, 2007 and fully operational in September 2007. A similar in size and scope Satellite 4 is planned to open in 2012 to provide additional capacity, again relying on the brand new, 100% automated check-in and baggage handling infrastructure of 2E and 2F. This facility, built in collaboration with Air France-KLM, is so large (it's the second largest airline terminal in Europe after Madrid Barajas' T4 and before BA T5 at London Heathrow) it needed to open in phases in order to be fully operational by the end of Summer 2007. The high tech, futuristic concrete-steel-and-glass building provides relief to millions of passengers who do not have to endure anymore annoying and lengthy bus rides to board and disembark from flights. The new S3 terminal also means faster transfer times to connecting flights and fewer lost bags.[8]

Construction began on a new terminal building, Terminal 2G, to the east of the S3 construction site in September 2006 with the first stone of the new building itself laid in March 2007. It will be connected to the Terminal 2 complex by shuttle buses and eventually an extension of the CDGVAL shuttle train service due to open in Spring 2007. 2G will be a Schengen terminal (and thus have no customs control) and will handle Air France regional and European traffic and provide small capacity planes (up to 150 passengers) with a faster turn-around time than is currently possible by enabling them to park close to the new terminal building and boarding passengers primarily by bus. Opening is planned for the Winter season of 2008.

Future use of Terminal 2 by Air France constantly evolves thanks to the development and opening of the S3 complex and the new 2G section of Terminal 2. On March 30 2008, the reopening of Terminal2E was completed allowing maximum passenger activity and full airport services. Air France has begun to shift traffic to use at full capacity Terminals 2C,2D,2E and 2F and eventually shall cease operations from terminals 2A and 2B which will continue to be used by other carriers.

Ground transportation

CDG is connected to the RER urban rail network, providing services into central Paris three to four times per hour, and the high-speed rail TGV network. SNCF French Rail operates direct TGV services to several French stations from CDG, including Angers, Avignon, Bordeaux, Dijon, Grenoble, Le Mans, Lille, Lyons, Marseilles, Montpellier, Nantes, Nîmes, Poitiers, Rennes, Strasbourg, Toulouse, Tours, and Valence.

CDG airport is connected to Paris by the RER B suburban train, offering both non-stop services (going directly from the airport to Paris Gare du Nord and beyond) and services stopping at intermediate stations. The faster trains take about 30 minutes to the Gare du Nord, the stopping trains about 35. There are two RER B stations inside the airport:

  • one, called Paris Aéroport Charles de Gaulle 1, is located inside Roissypôle (an area with hotels and company offices), besides Terminal 3, and is the preferred way to access terminals 1 and 3;
  • the other, called Paris Aéroport Charles de Gaulle 2, is located beside the TGV station under Terminal 2.

Terminal 2 includes a TGV station with high-speed trains connecting to various destinations in France and via Lille Europe to Brussels[9] .

Terminals 1, 2, the Roissypôle / Terminal 3 RER station, and parking lots PX and PR are connected by the free CDGVAL automatic shuttle. CDGVAL replaces free shuttle buses.

Roissybus, operated by RATP, departs from terminals 1 and 2 and goes non-stop to Paris, behind the Opéra Garnier.

There is a bus and coach station in Roissypôle, next to the RER B station. Buses departing from this station include RATP lines 350 and 351 going to Paris, and the bus going to the Parc Astérix.

RER B both serves CDG airport (with a travelling clientele) as well as northern suburbs of Paris. The line, operated by SNCF, suffers from slowness and saturation. For these reasons, French authorities have started two projects: one, CDG Express (opening between 2012 and 2015), will link CDG to Paris Gare de l'Est with trains specifically designed for air travellers; the other, RER B Nord Plus, will modernize and streamline the northern branches of RER B.

Alternate Airports

The three other airports serving Paris are Orly Airport, the most important after CDG, Paris-Beauvais-Tillé Airport, which mainly serves low-cost airlines, and Paris - Le Bourget Airport for General aviation (business jets).

Other facts of interest

CDG airport is not well perceived by mostly forein air travellers because the airport's service is not in the international standards. Many travellers mostly who had a connection don't find their way to catch their connect flight as a result they loose their flight due to unclear signage, long waiting in the passeport control and the cold hospitality of French staff with an English speaking not understandable.


Appearances in films and other works

  • The check-in area of Terminal 2F is a favourite film location for French directors and can frequently be seen in French films that require an airport location.
  • The movie Frantic feature a scene in terminal one when harrison ford and the french lady pick up a lost bagage.

Photography restrictions

On November 7 2005, prefectoral decision 05-4979 was issued, relating specifically to Charles de Gaulle airport. The law prohibits photographs being taken for private use of anything moving (e.g. aircraft) or not moving (e.g. buildings) within the "zone reservée" (the restricted area) from the "zone publique" (the public area).
