Overview
- Groupe ADP will replace CDG’s current alphanumeric terminal names with a single-digit sequence running from 1 to 7, leaving Terminal 1 unchanged.
- The numbering will follow the flow used by passengers arriving via road and the RER, a redesign ADP says responds to confusion reported by international and connecting travelers at an airport that handled about 70 million passengers in 2024.
- ADP provided sample remappings, with today’s Terminal 2E set to become Terminal 5 and Terminal 2F to become Terminal 6.
- Boarding areas beyond security will keep lettered identifiers, preserving hall letters as a separate layer from the new terminal numbers.
- The rollout will require extensive signage work—about 3,000 terminal signs, 600 parking panels and roughly 250 road-sign items—and is scheduled to coincide with the CDG Express service linking the airport to Paris Gare de l’Est in about 20 minutes every 15 minutes.
