Disneyland Paris Helipad?

Looking to fly into Disneyland in company chopper.
Whilst I'm looking into regs - has anybody done it recently - latest int etc?

Pprune search revealed mainly puddle-jumpers using local GA airfields and bus'ing/taxi etc.

EESDL,

I've noticed a site just outside the main park beside the hotels with a windsock, but I don't know if it is regularly used by helicopters, and it seemed to be fairly open. (not secure) Good luck with the trip!

As already suggested Lognes is one option, another is Meaux-Esbly with parallel grass runways!
If you do go to Meaux, check on fuel availability.
Have been to both these a/fields during the time EuroDisney was being built so obviously not for a few years!
Landed once at the site itself, but that was for the handover ceremony at the end of the build.
Don't forget there's a restricted area over the site and last but not least you will need the good old Helisurface permit for any off-airfield landings.

thanks for suggestions so far - happy with landing off-airfield requirements and local GA airfields.
Also aware that restricted airspace is not a 'stopper'
will follow hotel lead - thanks

I was thinking of doing this a couple of years back.
I've been in to Issy which is great for central Paris and from which Battersea should model its charges.

Meaux is the closest I think with Coulommiers a close second.

Please do let us know if there is a private site at one of the hotels.
You would require a special piece of paper for an off-airport landing in la bell France n'est-ce pas?
