    Public transportation to SJPP?

    Last year I flew from LAX to CDG on an AF 380, the new, big Airbus passenger plane. Once I got to CDG, I had a few hours to catch the train to Bayonne from the station at CDG. I had planned to fly to Biarritz that day, but there was a French air traffic strike. So I took the train, buying...

    Avoiding hassles at the airport

    We flew from LAX to OGG (Maui), arriving yesterday. One of our bags did not make it, because the TSA pulled it out for inspection. At least, that's what Hawaiian Airlines claims. We paid $100 for excess baggage charges to check that bag. We checked in at LAX about 90 minutes before they...

    Travel from California to Sjdp

    I would add one thought about flying to Madrid and/or Barcelona. One of the major airlines that you will consider is Iberia. We flew on Iberia from MAD to LAX. While the experience was not terrible, overall I was not impressed. I was forewarned by our guide, who lives in Portugal and often...

    Travel from California to Sjdp

    I live in California and am flying to Europe next April for the Camino. I am taking a nonstop Air France flight from LAX to Paris CDG. I picked Air France, because I wanted to fly on the new Airbus A-380. My son is a commercial airline pilot and he says it's a great plane. I will meet my son...

    Transfer Time in Madrid...

    Thanks for this post. While your recommendation was of great interest to me, I could not follow it. I am looking at catching an AF flight leaving at 0710 from MAD, so I need to spend the night before at a hotel very near Madrid Barajas. I have been to Madrid before, so I am not interested in...

    Getting to SJPDP

    Paris to SJPDP

    Hi Shering. I am flying to CDG arriving about the same day you are next year and meeting my son who is flying to CDG from Tokyo. He will walk part of the Camino with me. He will arrive later in the day than I will, so I have looked at all the options to get out of Paris without having to spend...

    Travel from CDG to SJPP and return from Muxia/Finisterre - Questions

    Thanks, Falcon, for the quick reply. In regards to my Item No. 4, do you have any recommendations on the best mode of transportation to return to CDG from Muxia/Finisterre? I realize that it might be a combination of two or three modes of transportation - bus, train and plane.

    Travel from CDG to SJPP and return from Muxia/Finisterre - Questions

    Hi. This will be my first Camino. Planning on arriving at CDG in early to mid-April from the US (LAX), via Air France at about 1135. No problem with that arrival time. My complication arises from the fact that my son will be arriving CDG from Tokyo, Japan, later the same day at about 1545...
