Nominal capacities of terminals at Paris-Charles de Gaulle At the end of 2019, the nominal capacities of the terminals amounted to 74 million passengers, given the continuing work to refurbish Terminal 2B. The effects of the main capacity building projects of ERA3 will be seen in 2020 and 2021, in particular: ◆ the reopening of the renovated terminal 2B and the 2B-2D junction; ◆ the junction of satellites 1, 2 and 3 of terminal 1; ◆ the opening of the AGEN areas in the remote parts of terminals 2E/2F and creation of boarding circuits in complementary remote areas; ◆ phase 2 of project TDS3/TBS4 (opening of TBS4) to sort, secure and transport all departing and transit baggage from Hall L and Hall M. CDG’s nominal capacity will thus increase to slightly more than 80 million passengers by end-2020, then to 83 million with the opening of the junction of the satellites of terminal 1. A powerful hub Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport is the global hub of Air France-KLM and the main European hub of the Skyteam Alliance. According to the ACI Europe “Airport Industry Connectivity 2019” report which assesses the network of connections offered at airports,
the connecting platform at Paris-Charles de Gaulle, the primary base of the Air France-KLM Group, is ranked as the 3 rd European hub for global connectivity (number of cities covered), behind Frankfurt and Amsterdam. It is also the European hub of La Poste and FedEx, with an extension under way that will increase the sorting capacity by 50% and is also home to all of the main international freight companies. Its processing capacity of around 3.6 million tonnes of cargo per year provides expansion opportunities for cargo companies. The work to extend the baggage sorting system in halls L and M is one of many improvement projects aimed at increasing the appeal and performance of the hub. The infrastructure has seen an in-depth transformation over the past years – the start-up of the A-C link and that from hall M to terminal 2E, the redesign of the connecting wells between terminals 2E and G, the opening of the Instant Paris lounge space, the 100% Schengen use of terminal 2F and the deployment of the Single Security Check and Automatic Baggage Drop-off (DBA), the automation of the boarding process and the increase in the number of PARAFE border control gates, combined with the deployment of facial recognition technology. This transformation, combined with well managed operations have enabled the reconfiguration of the Paris-Charles de Gaulle connection platform and a sustainable improvement in the operational and commercial efficiency of the airport and of passenger handling.

Traffic Point-to-point traffic accounts for over two thirds of passenger traffic at Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport. In addition, the airport is also ideally located to attract connecting traffic, thus boosting long-haul traffic since Paris is less than two hours by air from all major Western European cities. In 2019, connecting traffic accounted for 29.3% of the traffic.
