There are flights to Perps from CDG as well (or maybe from Orly) But for train info check www.raileurope.com or www.raileurope.co.uk

About 5 hours travelling time for direct services and 7+ hours for routes via other destinations. Looking at the return times I'd struggle to get back to Paris in the same evening so i think I'll probably look at other alternatives. Expensive too at nearly €200 return

im not too sure,there is talk of 1 bus picking up at the royal beach hotel where there are 30 plus people staying but thats at the other side of the resort, so hopefully 1 bus will be going from the town centre area with the casino royal been a prime location for a pick up.

well im in ancla hotel, which i believe is central-ish so i'm in same boat, still need to book my coach yet, best get a move on

Same bus, two pickups?

think it all depends on how many book, which from what ive heard there should be quite a lot of cas fans wanting coaches
