This is IDFM's named replacement for the Roissybus, and it does not go to Paris: it ends at Saint-Denis-Pleyel and carries on to Argenteuil. Budget EUR 2.05 for the bus plus EUR 2.55 for metro 14 and a change.

IDFM advertises "un trajet direct en 30 minutes". Its own timetable schedules 32 to 60 minutes from Roissypôle to Pleyel, typically about 42, because the bus calls at La Plaine and Stade de France on the way.

It leaves from Roissypôle, not from the terminals. From Terminal 2 that is nine minutes on the CDGVAL first; from Terminal 1, four.

The EUR 14 airport ticket is not valid on it. Neither is the EUR 2.55 metro ticket you will need afterwards.

The EUR 14 airport ticket is not valid on it.
