Transport from CDG Airport in France: what actually matters to know

Short answer
Standard metro tickets do not cover travel to CDG airport or Disneyland, requiring specific airport tickets like the 'ticket aéroport' loaded on a Navigo Easy card. For groups or early morning flights where RER trains are unavailable, consider Bolt ride-sharing or Noctilien night buses as cost-effective alternatives.

From real experience

Metro tickets in Paris cost approximately €2.50 for a single ride, but this fare does not typically cover travel to Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) or Disneyland.
For these destinations, separate tickets or passes are required. Ride-sharing services like Bolt can be more economical than the RER for journeys to CDG, especially for groups, with costs around €32 compared to €13 per person for the RER. Purchasing a travel pass may be beneficial for frequent use within Paris, depending on the duration and extent of travel.

A Navigo Jour pass is not suitable for airport to city travel on RER B to Gare de Lyon as it does not include the 'ticket aéroport'.
For a single journey from CDG airport to Gare de Lyon with transfers, a 'ticket aéroport 14' loaded onto a Navigo Easy card is recommended, costing approximately €16. This ticket covers the RER and subsequent metro/bus transfers within Paris. For groups of more than two, a taxi might be comparable in price.

For early morning travel to CDG airport (e.g., for a 7:00 AM flight), RER trains typically start service around 05:30, which may be too late.
Consider using Noctilien night buses (e.g., routes 142). It's crucial to verify the most up-to-date schedules and routes directly on the official Paris-CDG airport website, as information can vary. Noctilien services are night buses, not trains.
