Your post explains part of your problem but it's not clear enough for me to give you specific help. In my area of France, Alsace, there is a bus service on Bank Holidays but it is usually the Sunday service or a special timetable. It's certainly reduced in frequency.

So, if I understand the situation correctly, you'll be leaving the campsite for your hotel near the airport two days before you actually fly. The day on which you fly is Monday 15 August.

I think you'll have no trouble at all using buses on Saturday 13 August, and there should be a Sunday service running on 14 August. You don't say exactly where your hotel is, or at what time you need to be at the airport.

So let's work backwards. On Monday 15 August, take a taxi from the hotel to the airport. That way you are guaranteed transport and at a time to suit your flight. NOTE ... get the hotel reception to prebook you a taxi ... I'd recommend that this is done on the Saturday when you get to the hotel so that you can be sure of your booking being in the taxi company's log and you can relax.

You can find out details of how to travel on the local bus service to your hotel by using this website's route finder ... sorry it's in French only at the moment

There is a free shuttle service running around the town

I'd also recommend you send an email using this form

even if you write in English, to ask specific questions mentioning your exact dates and exact addresses. I think there's a good chance that they'll reply to you in sufficiently understandable English.

I hope this helps a bit. Be glad you're not driving as the roads will be choked with all those poor Parisians returning home from the seaside to start work the next day!!

thanks for that info Alsacienne , sorry was a bit hazzy with info . we actually stay on site from wed til monday then need 2 days at hotel until we leave wed 17th , so we will travel monday to the hotel which we think will be inter Amary on Airport , we will travel back to the campsite tue to see our daughter before we leave . thanks again

In that case, all should be running normally on 16 and 17 August!! Hope you have a great time and that the weather plays ball!
