Yes! It's Ryanair's little French bebe!! According to their website they have a shuttle bus into Paris, and I would strongly advise you to clear baggage control as quickly as possible so you don't miss it!!

Hi we have used ryannair and beauvais several times recently and must say it was efficient and good enough value at 13 euro one way. You can buy your tickets at the kiosk just to the right outside the arrivals or get them online http://www.aeroportbeauvais.com/bus.php?lang=eng for exact details. We found it good, they have enough buses there to accomodate everyone and every though we were last to get our luggage, there was no rush. It takes about one hour to Port Maillot depending on time of day. Oh and the staff on the buses were very helpful and polite with good English!

Hi. I've booked for disneyland and the airport that i'm landing in is Beauvais.Only problem is that it is miles away from disney, which i did not know at the time.
There is a shuttle bus that runs from the airport to the gates of disney but it is 45euros each way. It is ideal but quite an expense to add on to the journey.
Does anyone know if taxis are cheaper and do you have to book in advance the way you do with the shuttle bus. Also, how long does it take to get to disneyland from the airport.
Any information is greatly appreciated. :)

Hi Nattster,
Take the shuttle bus! Beauvais is nearly 2 hours journey away from Paris , so longer to Disney. I imagine a taxi would be very expensive.
We flew in to Beauvais & made the transfer by coach to the centre of Paris & it worked very well. The advantage of this airport is that it is tiny---- like something from the 1950s ( even has old B & W photos of stars & starlets from a bygone age who passed through!) so there is no hanging around for baggage & the bus is ready to take the passengers from one flight only. It worked very well. We passed CDG airport on the way in & overall I reckon there's not much difference time-wise as you waste so much time hanging around the busy airports ( at least that's what I tried to convince myself!) :lol:

:? I am new to your site and hope you can help.

I am travelling to Disneyland Paris with my husband and my twins girls who will be 3. We are dreading the journey from the airport to the Disneyland Resort and am looking for some advice. We are going to be carrying 1 or 2 suitcases (Ryanair have changed there policy and we can't put all our clothes in 1 case!!). a double buggy, 2 kids and anything else we pick up on the way so the easiest way you can suggest the better. The journey sounds dreadful and I imagine the Metro etc will be very busy. We went to CDG last year and it was excellent, we got off flight and then 1 bus to Disneyland if only it was this easy.

I would maybe leave the pram but last year we thought we could hire for the full duration of our stay and that wasn't the case they only let me hire the prams at the Disney parks and we had to return the prams at park closing which wasn't really useful as it would have been good for at night, kids got very tired legs after being in park all day.

Thanks so much from a very stressed mum

If there is one the Beauvais airport web site doesn't mention it. An unofficial site promoting the airport recommends this:

http://www.beauvais-airport.com/Disneyland-Paris/

Or there's a private transfer service from 125 euros per minibus

http://www.shuttlelinks.com/1_transfert_v_e.html

OK if there's a lot of you.
