FlixBus transfers from Paris to Paris Beauvais Airport

Paris Beauvais Tillé Airport (BVA) sits about 85 km north of the French capital in the Oise department, which makes the name a little misleading. It's technically a Beauvais airport that markets itself to Parisian travelers.

Ryanair and Wizz Air use it as one of their busiest French hubs, with routes to Barcelona, Dublin, Porto, Kraków, Marrakech, Tirana, and dozens more. If you've found a cheap ticket to somewhere and the airport code says BVA, this is where you're going.

The FlixBus transfer from Paris drops you at the airport bus station located between Terminals 1 and 2, a short walk from check-in for both. It's the most direct way to connect Paris to BVA without navigating a train connection that involves a taxi on the other end anyway.

How to reach your FlixBus stop in Paris

The bus from Paris to Paris Beauvais Airport departs from the Pershing bus station at Porte Maillot. The stop sits between the Palais des Congrès and the Périphérique ring road.

You can reach the departure point using different means of transport:

• Metro: Line 1 connects directly to Porte Maillot from central Paris, with stops at Châtelet, Les Halles, and La Défense among others. It's the fastest option from most central neighborhoods.
• RER: RER C also serves Porte Maillot, making it a convenient option if you're coming from the Left Bank, the Eiffel Tower area, or Versailles.
• Bus: Several Paris bus routes stop near Porte Maillot, connecting from the Marais, Montmartre, and other residential neighborhoods.
• On foot: If you're staying in the 16th or 17th arrondissement, the bus station is within walking distance.

Allow yourself plenty of time to get to the stop, especially during morning rush hour or on event days at the Palais des Congrès, when traffic on the ring road backs up.

The trip takes around 1 hour 20 minutes under normal conditions, with no intermediate stops between Porte Maillot and the airport. The bus from Paris to Paris Beauvais Airport drops you at the dedicated bus station between Terminals 1 and 2, directly in front of the check-in halls.

At Paris Beauvais Airport

BVA has two terminals. Terminal 2 is the larger of the two and handles most Ryanair and Wizz Air flights. Terminal 1 serves some Ryanair routes plus Volotea and other operators.

The terminals are a short walk apart and connected by the bus station area in between.

Key facilities

• ATMs in both arrival halls, a small café and newsagent in each terminal, duty-free, and self-service check-in kiosks.
• Passport control for non-Schengen arrivals operates in the arrivals halls of each terminal.

This is a high-volume budget terminal, not a full-service hub, so don't expect the range of shops you'd find at CDG.
