What qualifies as impertinent?UK customs are tediously long. They can ask you impertinent questions rather than just checking your documents are in order.

I live in Vancouver too. There are two ways I prefer to get to St Jean Pied de Port, through London and then flying directly to Biarritz or Paris and either fly or take the train to Biarritz. I use both Google Flights and Rome2Rio.com to find the best flights. What I like about using Rome2Rio is you can combine method of travel, plane/train/bus whatever.Would love to hear how others chose to make their way from Canada to the Frances! We are travelling from Vancouver next summer - just at the browsing stage right now. I'm looking at Air Transat to Paris, possibly one way and go thru Gatwick on the way back. Flying into Spain from Canada is quite a bit more $$. I'm wondering how easy it is to transfer in Paris to central train station, seems cost is same to fly within France but travelling by train would be a treat in itself. Thank you !

We flew this April from Toronto to Paris CDG via Air France. Had same debate about seeing the country via train but opted to fly to Biarritz. Downside was long layover at CDG. Taxi to St Jean.Would love to hear how others chose to make their way from Canada to the Frances! We are travelling from Vancouver next summer - just at the browsing stage right now.

CDG is a huge airport. It can take more than an hour just to transfer from one terminal to another. Make sure your time appreciation includes lots of time to make your way through customs and to your connections.

Question #5 made me laugh out loud. Odd series of questions.
The last time I entered the UK by air, I was en route home from Santiago and the officer’s daughter worked at Canterbury cathedral, so we had quite the chat about pilgrimage.
I am looking at tat flights from Toronto to Biarritz and maybe could I get your advice on feasibility of arriving at CDG from Toronto at 8:40AM, and making it to a flight at 10:50 AM also at CDG for an easyjet flight to Biarritz. Am I cutting it too close?
Thank you, appreciate your response. Yes I am watching Air T into those French cities, I cringe at their layovers in Toronto/Montreal, but good fares and thanks for pointing out how frequent the trains are. Outbound there are several options with good fares, the return is trickier. At this point the one I'm most closely watching is Air C return to Barcelona - hoping for a new year seat saleHello G. We also find it difficult flying from Vancouver. But if you fly on Air Transat into Bordeaux or Toulouse there is a convenient train every 2 hours or so to Narbonne. You would need to take the shuttle from the airport to the train station, but that is pretty simple! We last flew from YVR to Frankfurt, then on to Pamplona but the prices will depend on the dates!
