Default CDG to FDX Ramp?

Staying at the Concorde Lafayette and know how to get from there to CDG (bus for 10 Euros), but not sure how to get from the bus drop off to the FDX ramp. I've heard the cabbies in the queue are reluctant to take you because it's so short and they lose their place in line.

Anyone done this? Thanks in advance!

I assume you are jumpseating somewhere?

Call CDC ops and ask what other crews are staying in Concorde.
Ask if any are being alerted for when you need to be there.

Tell them you would like to ride with crew if it is OK. Be a big tipper.

Print out a picture of the route, as it doesn't come up with a decent address, it gives you a general CDG airport address.

I got to the terminal, and went through three taxi drivers till I got a guy with decent english, and showed him a printed map from the terminal to the ramp, overhead sat photo view....that worked...but it wasn't easy.

Did it a couple years ago. Email/ call the CDG ramp. They can help you out.

You can take the black bus to the Marriott and the the Marriott driver will take you over to theFedEx ramp too.
