I see i sparked a debate! But really guys, I’m just not partial to planes. I feel uneasy about flight safety, especially on US carriers. Thank you both for your replies.
Hello Bradypus!
Yes, I now see the train to Bayonne. Thanks for pointing that out. The one I was referring goes from Degaulle to Denfert-Rochereau Metro where you catch a train to Montparnasse. The Bayonne route is just what I was looking for as I have tried transportation from both Madrid...
Hello!
