Me and a friend are checking in at Manchester on the Sunday at 3pm but transfering in paris for the 10:55am flight the next day...
Do you think they can check us in all the way through with the 10:55am flight included in the manchester departure?
Would we need to pick up suitcases in CDG if the connecting flight with the same airline is the day after?
We just wanted to tour the city and eiffel tower while we waited for the next days flight (without a hotel)
So we thought to stay in the airport from around 1am-10:55am
Let me know if this sounds like a good idea in paris? thanks
P.S There will be a massive trip report coming your way...Think Long haul flight

In MAN, if you are flying the same airline all along your journey (AF), they can check you in all the way to your final destination.

Normally no.

Why returning to CDG at 1.00 AM if your flight is only at 10:55 AM ? Spend your night in Paris ! go out, have fun and return to CDG early in the morning ....

Quoting FCA767 (Reply 3): I guess I could find a hotel quite cheap
There is a cluster of reasonably priced Formule 1/Etap/Ibis hotels just a few minutes ride outside of CDG (with a free shuttle bus from/to CDG).

Thanks for that
I have put some words together for my end of flight
qui a été un bon/mal atterrissage. Puis-je jeter un oeil dans le cockpit
that was a good/bad landing. Can I take a look in the cockpit
hehe maybe I wouldnt say bad but I can't lie if the latter happens
Infact, I was on a Oz flight and he slammed it down, the captain said "He did it" Pointing to the 1st officer
