No one is showing that if you have any checked luggage YOU NEED TO COLLECT YOUR LUGGAGE AND MANUALLY MOVE IT to your next airline luggage collection area. Even though your luggage is already tagged to your final destination!!! then you have to run and go through passport control and TSA screening again with your carry on and personal baggage. I found that at busy times a 3 hour layover is the least amount of layover time you can possibly make your next flight without RUNNING to board. Planes start boarding around 40 minutes before depart time but the close the doors to the plane at least 10 minutes before the departure time. If you get there and the doors are closed THEY WILL NOT let you board. I’ve had to do the above procedures in both 2021 and 2022 when arriving in Paris and transferring to a connecting flight even when both my arrival and next flight were on Air France. I was scheduled to have a 3 hour layover both years. Last year my arrival at CDG was close to an hour late, after transferring my checked bag to the connecting flight it DID NOT make my flight into Barcelona. It took 3 days for my checked bag to arrive at my lodging.

It's the same everywhere in Europe when you arrive from a non-Schengen country and enter the Schengen area. Because the first airport you land at that is in the Schengen area is your de facto Schengen point of immigration & customs check, not your final destination. If you flew with, let's say, Lufthansa from New York to Bordeaux via Frankfurt, it will be the same procedure in Frankfurt as in Paris CDG because your entry in the Schengen area is Frankfurt. You'll pass immigration and customs checks in Frankfurt. The Frankfurt to Bordeaux flight may be international but it is equivalent to a domestic one as both Germany and France are in the Schengen area, there's no immigration or customs between the two or any other Schengen area countries. This isn't specific to any airport or airline. The moment you exit the international area and enter the domestic side of the Schengen area, your luggage must be collected as you *will* go through immigration and customs. However, if your origin and destination are *both* *outside* the Schengen area, so you're not taking any intra-Schengen flights then your luggage should follow automatically. Because in this case you never enter any other country in-between and did not take any domestic or domestic-like flights. You stayed in full international area during your transfer.. Example : New York to Marrakech via Paris > luggage stays in the system and you only collect them in Marrakech before passing Moroccan immigration and customs. USA and Morocco are not Schengen countries. New York to Milano via Amsterdam and Lyon > the NY to AMS leg is fully international, you will collect your luggage and pass immigration and customs in Amsterdam, while both the Amsterdam to Lyon and Lyon to Milano legs are intra-Schengen flights equivalent to domestic flights, your luggage should follow automatically between the 2 last legs and you will *not* pass immigration or customs. The Schengen area is the large zone formed by the customs and immigration union of most EU countries plus some others like Switzerland, etc. It's pretty much the same in the US, last time I flew from Europe and had a connection in an American airport to another American airport, I had to collect my luggage and go through immigration and customs before transferring to the domestic leg of my journey.

@KyrilPG6 ай бұрын
@@jeep146 Yes, but customs in Europe are pretty easy. Denmark and France are both in the Schengen area, so there's no controls or customs checks between the two. Your point of control is your first point of entry in the Schengen area, not your destination if it's in the Schengen area. A flight between two airports that are in the Schengen area is pretty much like a domestic flight. But that shouldn't worry you in any way, customs are usually after immigration and after luggage retrieval and it wouldn't make any difference for you whether it's the French or Danish customs. Though, there can be "flying customs" but it's not a border thing (customs that can check people anywhere). If there's no Schengen specific terminal or sector at Copenhagen, or if your intra European flight is docked to the international sector / terminal for some reason, you could be mixed with extra European flights and then have to pass through the " customs corridor". It's often the case at Barcelona's airport where passengers from the other side of the globe can be mixed with Schengen travelers. Customs officers simply know the schedules and look at luggage tags (Schengen tags usually have a distinctive color) and let all the Schengen passengers go without any controls (except for maybe very specific exceptions). The Schengen area is part of the customs union of the EU. So you should only pass customs in the first airport you land at when coming from outside the Schengen area. Exactly like you would when going back to the US : if you fly from Paris to Denver via Atlanta for example, you will pass immigration and customs in Atlanta, not Denver. Though in Paris you may not even see that you've passed customs : Customs are located after the luggage carousels and if your flight comes from the US, Canada or Japan, etc., and if there are no flights "of interest" for the customs arriving at the same time in the same terminal, then chances are you won't see any customs officers and just pass through without even noticing. Last time I landed back in Paris from the New York, there were only US and Canada flights arriving and the customs bureau wasn't open. They'd wait for the African or South American flights to show up.

Also the staff strikes most of the year and not efficient. They are not even ready to handle Olympics, metro stations are outdated with lot of stairs to walk.
