To reach Disneyland Paris from the city, look for RER A towards Marne-la-Vallée–Chessy. Check the train’s final destination rather than its line name alone, and note your hotel station so the journey home is planned too.

Check the destination even on the right RER line
Official access guidance from Disneyland Paris and RATP identifies RER A towards Marne-la-Vallée–Chessy. Read the train destination again when you reach the platform. Do not decide solely from the line colour or letter A. Match the destination in your journey planner with the actual display before boarding.
Calculate the journey from your hotel separately
The roughly 35 minutes in Disneyland Paris guidance describes the train journey from Nation station. Do not assume it includes walking from your hotel, Metro transfers, waiting or admission preparations. RATP describes a connection from Metro line 1 to RER A at Nation, but look up the route that suits your actual hotel.
Do not attach an airport plan to the city route
Access on RER A from central Paris differs from the TGV and airport shuttles departing Charles de Gaulle Airport in both starting point and product conditions. If visiting immediately after flying in, look up the airport route separately. A TGV ticket is not a city RER ticket: check each transfer location and ticket type.
Save the return route and luggage plan before the fireworks
Save the route to your hotel station before the closing show. Check the day’s last trains and engineering works in the official journey planner; the show’s finish time does not guarantee a last-train connection. Disney Express is a paid luggage service for eligible hotel guests and others covered by its conditions, rather than a free storage facility for every day visitor.
