Paris 2024 Olympics: Paris-Beauvais airport shuttle, temporary closure of the Porte Maillot stop

It's a popular shuttle for travelers arriving from Beauvais airport to the capital, and vice versa. But here's the problem. Since May 10, 2024, the Porte Maillot stop on line A01 has no longer been served. This temporary interruption will continue for the duration of the Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games.

" Due to the Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games this summer, the A01 Paris-Beauvais Airport ↔ Paris Porte Maillot line will be temporarily transferred," reads the official Paris-Beauvais airport website.

But what are the alternatives? Because of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, the Porte Maillot stop has been transferred to La Défense, located more exactly next to the Grande Arche, and accessible via the RER A and E, metro line 1 or tramway T2.

However, for this A03 line, which runs between La Défense and Paris-Beauvais airport, online booking is compulsory. No tickets will be sold on site. In addition, only a maximum of 20 round trips per day will be offered.

Another possible stop? Saint-Denis Université on line A02. For this shuttle, accessible via metro line 13 and T1, online reservations are not required. Paris-Beauvais airport is also announcing a much more frequent aerobus service, with " up to 80 round trips " per day. The official website also states that "it is advisable to book a departure from Paris Saint-Denis University at least 3 hours before your plane takes off ".
