    The second time around...why am I nervous?

    Like now, almost midnight, I worry about not enough time from CDG to catch the train from Gare Bercy. Only carry on luggage, WOW airline from New York to CDG, arrive 11:30 am. Need to catch 14:00 train from Gare Bercy. Do I have enough time ? 2.5 hours ? With non EU passport
