There is no railway line to the airport, but it is connected to the nearby town of Beauvais and to Paris by direct bus services.

You can reach the centre of Paris in 90 minutes for € 17,90 eur s (or € 29,90 eur s return) when booking online at terravision.eu.

Bus to Paris

Three shuttle bus routes operate from the airport to the outskirts of Paris and to metro stations, run by the airport in partnership with Terravision. Another route goes directly to Disneyland Paris without the need to change buses.

Buy a bus ticket to/from Paris

You’ll find the bus stop at the airport in the area between the two terminals, about 30 metres from the exit.

Is it worth buying a ticket in advance?

Yes, especially if you’re travelling during the summer season or have a tightly-packed itinerary in Paris.

The advantage of booking online is:

  • a lower price than when buying at the airport
  • instant confirmation
  • you don’t have to worry about buying a ticket after arrival
  • your transport is sorted before you set off
  • if your flight is delayed, you can take another bus, provided there is space available

Bus to Beauvais

If you’re heading to Beauvais only, take Corolis busnumber 6or the NANavette Aeroport. Both services run to the city centre and the railway station.

Line 6 runs roughly between 7.00 and 20.30, whilst the NA service runs early in the morning and later in the evening, roughly from 4.30 to 8.00 and from 20.30 to 23.00. As well as the city centre, the NA service also serves all the major hotels in Beauvais.

You can find detailed timetables and further information on the corolis.fr website.

  • Bus 6– a ticket costs 1 EUR and is valid for a full calendar day on all city bus routes in Beauvais except the NA route
    • Frequency – every 30 minutes on weekdays, every 60 minutes at weekends and on public holidays
    • Journey time to the station – 17 minutes
  • Bus NA– a ticket costs 4 eur and is valid for the following 48 hours on all city bus routes in Beauvais
    • Frequency – every 60 to 90 minutes
    • Journey time to the station – 17 minutes

You can only buy a ticket from the driver and only in cash. If you don’t have cash, the only option is to buy a ticket via the OISE mobile app (Google Play / App Store).

The bus stop for Beauvais is not at the central bus station between the terminals, but is located on the pavement near the car hire offices.

Bus + Train to Paris

Combining city bus route 6 from the airport to Beauvais station, followed by a train to Paris Nord station in the city centre, can in some cases be cheaper than direct shuttle buses from the terminal at Porte Maillot.

However, you need to buy your train tickets online at least 2–3 days in advance via the French railways’ website, sncf-connect.com.

A one-way ticket booked in advance is available from as little as 5 eur plus the fare 1 eur for bus line 6. However, if you buy your ticket on the spot, the standard price is around 16 eur.

Car hire

Beauvais Airport is situated practically in the French countryside and can be a very convenient starting point for a road trip through north-western France.

The airport is home to many car hire companies, both well-known and local, with weekly hire rates starting from 260 eur.

Compare prices and book a car

All car hire companies are located in a separate building behind the coach station, about a 1-minute walk from Terminal 2 and a 3-minute walk from Terminal 1.

Bus to Disneyland

The direct A05 bus service runs from the station between the terminals (the same stops as those used by buses to Paris) to the Disneyland resort in the east of Paris, also without the need to change buses.

The A05 bus runs only on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, with eight services a day in both directions.

  • Price – 33 eur one way (no discount is available on return tickets)
  • Journey time – 90 minutes
  • Book tickets at terravision.eu

Bus to Amiens

Bus route 601 also stops at the airport, connecting the centre of Beauvais with the city of Amiens, where you can, for example, change to trains heading for Lille or Le Touquet.

Bus 601 runs at irregular intervals, roughly once every two hours on weekdays and 6–7 times a day at weekends and on public holidays. You can find the timetable on the oise.fr website.

A single ticket costs 1 eur, regardless of the length of your journey.

You can buy a ticket from the driver in cash only or via the OISE mobile app (Google Play / App Store).
