Day 1: Paris CDG Airport Metro/Train Station Empty From Strike - Paris, France
11.15.07 – 9:00am - Thursday
Arrived at CDG, no bag for Randy abt. 9.45am
Went to Air France baggage dept. to file a claim – received a claim
#CDG AF 89704
It was kind of like a ghost town, like something you'd see in a movie where there's some kind of a scare or end of the earth type of situation. The rest of the airport was pretty busy but this area was not!
Milled around the airport looking for a place to clean up – went to AF lounge using Platinum card, but we were denied access; so went to a restroom to shave and freshen-up. Had a coffee and looked for a way to get to our hotel because the Metro and rail systems were not working due to a strike.
We took a cab to the hotel.
