Please try to stay on topic. I realise because of the complexity of some of the posts members may veer off but in answer do not 'go there'.

For info and questions on US customs please post on the thread below: post https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/us-customs-discussion-airports-importing.905560/

Detaxing (to US from Europe) https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/best-way-to-detax-after-h-in-europe.178302/

or non-US destinations: https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/does-h-store-paris-wants-to-ship.605014/page-3

For questions relating to prices https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/reference-hermes-current-prices.102567/page-357

For traveling with boxes https://forum.purseblog.com/threads...me-hermes-boxes-when-traveling.1044553/page-5



I will leave this reminder as a sticky because tthis is often a thread that new members (or new Hermès lovers) post on - hopefully temporarily.

I’m glad to hear!! Yes just general if you feel safe in the airport and if there are many tourists etc.
Thank you!

I felt safe :) Nothing really out of the ordinary; I think majority of people are also so focused on staying healthy that they avoid contact whatsoever. Out of Terminal 2, gates K, L, M, there were a decent chunk of tourists... not as bad as the summer but a considerable amount.

I was actually declined at first, i then bought a shoes and ask the SA who helped me to try for me and it worked. This works most of the time, i didnt get the shoes for the appointment i was actually looking for them.

I took the opportunity to just browse on my first visit (Feb 21) to the store (Few days before I posted on this forum) and I tried on a pair of shoes I was looking for. But I didn't buy them immediately. So I asked the sweet SA that helped me if she can speak to the hostess. She did, but I was declined an appointment right away and this was after two rejections. it was on a Saturday so I expected it would be too busy to take appointments for walk-ins. So I kept trying but got a lot of rejections. I decided that I wanted to buy the shoes (Feb 27) and I met the same SA, I asked her again if she help out. I explained the situation and she did the same with the hostess. The super sweet hostess took my passport and saw that I was trying and honest about it. She immediately gave me an appointment at 3:30. Fast forward, I met the SA and told him what I wanted (Constance 24 & Kelly 25 or 28). They did not have size 25. But he brought the specifications I wanted in size 28. I imagined the size would be too big on me (It was my second choice) but I absouletly loved it! The SA also brought few items which I did not request but I guess they do that in case someone wants to try something new (I appreciated it in fact). I told him I will get the Kelly :biggrin:! So yay I got my first bag from FSH.

Holy Moses! I was due to land at 5:25 am Thursday, but cancelled yesterday! I would have been mid-flight when the President suspended travel back to the US.

You dodge a bullet too! :) One of my friend wanted me to go to Amsterdam and I declined because of the uncertainty of what was happening in China a month ago. An Angel was watching over me because he is there right now until Sunday. I have no clue what would have happened to me with returning here Sunday with that announcement (he lives in Canada so not affected)

Anyone else that’s travelling to Paris in March? My trip is coming up in 2 weeks but I don’t know if I should cancel or postpone due to the virus situation...seriously I’m not worried once I’m in Paris city but the flight, airport and train is what I’m worried about :sad:

Exactly. I cancelled my trip in April.
The lady at KLM hotline was so nice to offer me a full refund. I shall save some money for the B then.

I cancelled my trip today as well. I did not get a refund but I got a voucher I can use that is valid for a year and it is good enough for me.

Really hope the situation improves so we can visit Paris again!
