Well Charles de Gaulle, needs some improves at least on the area of Air Europa. I had been told, that Air France area is much newer and nicer.
Anyway, we had to go out for the toilets (out of the waiting area) and no smoking room at all .... but as a French friend told us.. common this is France, (smoking under a no smoking sign restaurant area lol).
So, when in France do as French do!

The new Beaujolais has arrived!
We founded this sing in all the restaurants and cafes, so we tried it.
Is a new wine, so do not expect anything great, if you want to be for sure, try a Bordeaux.
Beaujolais is sold every year beginning the third Thursday in November.

Check in your ticket if the 15% Service Compris is written there, that means that you do not have to leave a tip.
But if you found that service was great, is up to you!
At the beginning we were a little surprised as we had a total and the VAT (IVA) after it, so we did not know if it was already included, and the answer is YES is it was included.....

Well even if the most spectacular one is the one at the Pyramid, you can also enter through Richelieu Side.
As soon as you get our of the Metro, going in direction to the Pyramid you cross the Richeliu corridor, and at your right there is a little entrance with no queue at all.
Good luck!
