Terminal 1 click for detailed diagram was built in the image of an octopus with a circular central part housing central functions like check-in and baggage claim surrounded by seven satellites which are connected to the central building by underground walkways leading to the boarding gates. The central building, with a vast skylight in its centre, sees each floor dedicated to a single function: The first floor for the technical functions, the second floor contains shops, restaurants, CDGVAL inter-terminal shuttle, the third floor has airline departure counters and access to travel by taxi, bus and special vehicles, the fourth floor for departures with border control, duty-free and access to satellite terminals, the fifth floor for arrivals where there's baggage claim, customs and exit areas, the sixth to ninth floors are for parking, administration and airlines.
The passage between the third, fourth and fifth floors is done through suspended criss-crossing escalators in the central court of the building.
