There is a "package" sold by third party re-sellers that is known as the "Paris Pass." As your informant suggests it basically combines a Museum Pass with a Paris Visite métro pass and adds a few discounts and other incentives. It can only be purchased prior to arriving in France. Even with the incentives the general view is that the Paris Pass is overpriced and not an interesting product for most visitors.

My phone number starts 01 42 and I can confirm that it is in the north of Paris -- with a few exceptions. Now you can move anywhere in the city and keep your old phone number, so there must be some people in the south of Paris with numbers starting 01 42.

>>>A carnet costing 11€60 would certainly seem to be a better way to go since you will need the other tickets for the métro or bus when you are in Paris in any case. You cannot buy a carnet on the bus<<< Part of the 'catch' to the #350 bus is that finding the bus stops for it at CDG may be a bit of an inconvenience. As noted, the driver will take €uro denomination cash for the...

all airlines have declined to AF levels in recent years -- but AF has always had snotty minimal service (the FAs disappear after meal service and it is self service after that -- noone bringing water by every couple of house like most US carriers, no one doing diddly) -- and the food is awful which I didn't expect -- my personal favorite, the frozen solid poached egg on greens

Renting an apartment in Paris is complex enough without extras added that are not obvious in the listing or first communication. There are plenty of agencies people have used successfully with apartments proved to be satisfactory that it's not worth bothering with an agent/agency with hidden and extra costs. Only a few apartments require payment of utilities and insurance. The deposit for utility bills and cleaning does not seem...
