Booking a €25 Ryanair or Wizz Air flight to "Paris" Beauvais feels like a win — until you discover the airport is 85 km north of the city. Getting to Paris can cost more than your flight. Here are your real options.
In a hurry? Skip the shuttle and the taxi meter — a private transfer from Beauvais to Paris is a fixed €160 (up to 3) or €200 (up to 7), door to door, whatever time you land. Check prices & book →
The official shuttle bus
The official bus runs between the terminal and Porte Maillot, on the western edge of Paris, for about €16.90 per person one-way (€29 round trip). The ride takes 75–90 minutes, buses fill up fast after each arrival, and Porte Maillot is probably not where your hotel is — add a metro or taxi ride with your bags. Miss the last bus after a delayed evening flight and options get very thin, very expensive.
Train? Not really
There is no direct rail link. The nearest station requires a local bus first, then a slow regional train to Gare du Nord. Only worth considering as an adventure, not as a plan.
Private transfer — the door-to-door option
A pre-booked private transfer from Beauvais costs €160 for up to 3 passengers, €200 for up to 7 — per vehicle, everything included. For a couple that's €75 each versus €29 each for the bus plus the metro; for a family of four it's cheaper than four bus tickets plus a taxi from Porte Maillot, door to door, with child seats free. Your driver monitors the flight and waits even if you land at 1 am — precisely when the bus has stopped caring.
Official Beauvais Airport shuttle to Paris — price 2026
Here is the official Paris Beauvais airport shuttle price for 2026, and how it compares once you count the full journey to your hotel. The shuttle is the cheapest single ticket, but it stops only at Porte Maillot — so for two or more travellers a fixed-price private transfer often costs the same or less door to door.
| Beauvais → Paris | Price 2026 | Drop-off |
|---|---|---|
| Official shuttle bus — one-way (1 person) | ≈ €16.90 | Porte Maillot only |
| Official shuttle — round trip (1 person) | ≈ €29 | Porte Maillot only |
| Official shuttle — round trip (family of 4) | ≈ €116 | + metro/taxi to hotel |
| Private transfer (1–3 people) | €160 fixed | Your exact hotel door |
| Private transfer (4–7 people) | €200 fixed | Your exact hotel door |

Landing at Beauvais at night?
Low-cost schedules love late arrivals. Buses are timed to flights, but one delay and the connection logic collapses — and a metered night taxi from Beauvais can exceed €200. A pre-booked private transfer is the only option with your name on a sign at 1 am, at the same fixed price as at 1 pm: flight tracked, waiting included.
The honest verdict
Solo backpacker landing at noon: take the bus. Two or more people, luggage, a late arrival, or a hotel far from Porte Maillot: the maths and the fatigue both point to a private Beauvais transfer. Book it before you fly — prices are fixed and confirmed in writing.
