- simias 11y agoThe airport is not in either city centers, there are more security checks, you have to check your luggage in etc... The door-to-door travel time is significantly more than 1hour for the plane. Also in my experience the TGV is much more comfortable than similarly priced airplane tickets. You can look at the landscape (unless you're traveling by night), you have more room, you can walk around etc...
- pgeorgi 11y agoIt takes half an hour from Marseille to its airport. Another hour because you have to be early for check-in and 'security' procedures. Yet more 30 minutes in Paris to get back to the city center (no matter at which airport you land). The high speed train stops right in the city center. So unless one of your endpoints is close to one of the airports it's 3 hours for both of them.
