Porte Maillot represents one of the most strategic transport hubs in the French capital, located in the north-western quadrant of the city.

With a direct bus connection to Beauvais Airport and the presence of Metro Line 1 and RER C stops, Porte Maillot serves as a crossroads between the airport, where Ryanair and Wizzair low-cost flights land, and the centre of Paris.

The shuttle from Beauvais to Porte Maillot

The Porte Maillot car park is of particular interest to those who choose to land at Beauvais airport. From here, in fact, direct shuttles depart from, and arrive at, the airport, some 100 km away, and the French capital.

The journey time is approximately one hour and fifteen minutes, with possible variations depending on traffic conditions. The frequency of the runs is calibrated to flight schedules, guaranteeing a reliable and well-organised service.

Where to buy tickets

The most convenient and cost-effective solution is buy tickets online, but you can also pick them up at the ticket offices at the arrivals of Terminals 1 and 2 of the airport or at the Pershing car park ticket office at Porte Maillot.

There are discounts for children from 4 to 11 years old, while children under 4 travel free of charge.

Timetable

From the airport, shuttles leave 20-25 minutes after each flight lands and in case of delays the service automatically adjusts to the new schedule.

From the Porte Maillot car park, shuttles are calibrated to leave approximately 3 hours before each flight.

Things to do in the area

Although not in the historical heart of the city, Porte Maillot boasts an enviable location: a 20-minute walk will take you to the imposing Arc de Triomphe, while a little further on you can admire the majestic Trocadero complex and the unmistakable silhouette of the Eiffel Tower.

The area is also the gateway to the magnificent Bois de Boulogne, a green lung that guards the legacy of the Parisian nobility. This historic park, once the haunt of the aristocracy, now offers an oasis of peace where you can enjoy horse riding, boat rides or simply relaxing rides along its tree-lined paths.

For lovers of shopping and modernity, the Palais des Congrès is a must-see landmark. This avant-garde complex is home to Les Boutiques Du Palais, a shopping centre easily accessible via a direct connection from the metro and RER stations, where you can indulge in cafés, restaurants and trendy boutiques.
