I arrived CDG at 8:50 from Canada . Passport control asked for my Cdn passport but no attestation or QR code, no customs either. From debarkation to EasyJet T2B under 1 hour.
Update
EasyJet asked for QR. I also had my Canadian proof available if needed.

Carpe diem and Buen camino!

I saw your message earlier and was just about to ask: "And what about the domestic flight within France on EasyJet?" when I saw your update.

Good to read that things go smoothly and thank you for the feedback!

By now you must be on your way.
May it be easy, indeed!
Buen camino @BombayBill.

How long did it take to get your QR code from when you sent your info in? Thanks!

So if you did not have the QR you wont be in he EasyJet fly? I am afraid of not been able to get into the train... I am arriving in Lyon and train to Le Puy... I've applied for the QR on August 13...

BombayBill · Aug 27, 2021

No I believe your own countries’ documents should suffice. But much more trouble. Here in SJPP they ask for the QR everywhere. A good trick is to make a picture of the QR and then set it as your locked screen background. Then it’s easy to flash.

I'm doing this from Scotland en route to Lisbon on Monday. Have only 45 mins to transit CDG. Scotland doesn't do a digital passport so have a printed letter and rapid antigen test to do 48bhrs before. Hope it goes as smoothly as yours. Have a wonderful Camino!

So far so good. Booking ahead 1 day at a time. Larrasoaña was limited. Stayed at San Nicolas, limited rooms and even more limited meals. If you book it book dinner as well. If no meal available walk to grocery store next store and book meals there.

BombayBill · Sep 2, 2021

In Estella, got the last bed at the Agora. Very nice place. Booked 1 day ahead. But NO PANIC, everyone’s getting beds but maybe not where you wanted. So again don’t panic , just call ahead and be flexible.
