How This Major Transportation Change Could Mess With Your Disney Trip

If you’ve ever visited Disneyland Paris, you know that getting from the airport to the park can be a little tricky sometimes, but there are usually numerous options available.

You can take a magical shuttle to take you directly to the hotel you’re staying at, you can rent a car, or take public transportation, like the TGV highspeed train. If you’re traveling to Paris soon, though, there’s been a change in transportation you need to know about, as it’ll likely reroute your path to the park.

For the next few weeks, one of the most popular ways to get to Disneyland Paris (and one of the easiest) is experiencing disruptions that are about to make your trip a little more difficult. When traveling with Île-de-France Mobilités, the public transportation system, you can usually get to Disneyland Paris by taking just one train. You’ll board an eastbound RER A train, remain aboard until the Marne-la-Vallée–Chessy stop, and find that you come out beside Disney Village, bringing you right near the entrances to both Disneyland Paris and Disney Adventure World. That’s not the case for the next few weeks, though.

From August 8th through August 23rd, the RER A is interrupted from Noisy-le-Grand to Mont d’Est to Vincennes, meaning that you can’t get to Marne-la-Vallée–Chessy unless you board at Noisy Champs, which is the stop just before Marne-la-Vallée–Chessy. Now, the Marne-la-Vallée–Chessy station is still getting RER A trains from the east side of the interruption, but the problem for Disneyland Paris travelers comes in the middle of their journey.

So what should travelers do instead? Well, the recommendation from Île-de-France Mobilités is to take the RER A towards Boissy-Saint-Léger to Nogent-sur-Marne, then get on the replacement bus to Noisy-le-Grand – Mont d’Est, then take the RER A to Marne-la-Vallée Chessy. Note, though, that if you need to get back into Paris in the evening after your park day, you’ll want to allow for more travel time. The last train from Marne-la-Vallée – Chessy to reach Paris is at 11:14 PM.

We know this can seem stressful, so we recommend allowing more travel time than you typically would if you’re traveling this month. Again, this will only last through August 23rd, so there are only a few more weeks to go!
