In a word, or rather 2 words - private transfer.

I found bus horrendous. Had to take a shuttle bus from terminal 1 to terminal 2 to pick up VEA and it was such a sea of people. No queue, no system, just pushing, shoving (some nationalities worse than others) and rude drivers. Very stressful.

Have no experience of the train but I believe it's very good, especially if you land in the same terminal as train leaves from.

We (DD & I) took private transfer last time and it cost me double what the bus cost on my previous trip but it was worth every single penny. We were checking into our hotel within hour and a bit after landing. Driver met us and we walked 10m to the door and car was right there, complete with choice of DVDs for my DD.

On previous trip, we hadn't even left the airport 1 1/2 hours after landing.

I'd check out costs. Private transfer is around 60 euro each way. I used Inter Shuttle Prestige & have booked them for my next trip also.

Enjoy your trip when you go.

Easiest and quickest? I agree with Granard. A private transfer will be waiting for you when you arrive, with a name card, and hopefully parked right outside the exit.Prices range around ? 60-70 each way, but if there is not much traffic on the roads you could be in Disneyland in 30 mins.
The VEA Disney buses leave from Terminal 2 E/F so if you arrive in a different Terminal, you have to catch the airport shuttle to get to them. It also depends on your flight arrival and departure times, as to whether the VEA buses or fast TGV train are suitable.
The VEA bus and train charge per person, so a private transfer can be cheaper for some families.They should also have appropriate child seats if required.
Granard uses Inter Shuttle Prestige ( also known as isprestige) who are a recommended company. Another reliable company is ezyshuttle.com, which is owned by a very friendly Irish chap named John.I used him in August, even though we had VEA bus tickets included in our holiday package.
The problem with using the TGV on arrival, is that you have to book advance tickets for the train. If your flight is delayed, and you miss your train, you may have to wait some time for another, if not fully booked.
Some people like to use the VEA bus or private transfer on arrival, but return by TGV train. You still have to allow about 3 hrs before your flight time though, as there can be long queues at CDG airport.
We have more information about this on the Trip Advisor Marne La Vallee forum, with useful links.
When are you going?

Yes, there is a company that does shared transport. Not sure how that works with different flights coming in though, you could end up waiting for a while. We booked a shared one when we went to Rome, and it was very frustrating having to hang around until they had enough people. We wasted about an hour at the airport, when we could have been on our way.
This is a shared company that was recommended by a poster on the Trip Advisor Paris forum for cheaper Disneyland transfers.
I use ezyshuttle, so have no personal knowledge of this company.

Remember that shared transfers charge per person, so good for 1, 2 or 3 people, but could be more expensive for a family or larger group than hiring a private one.
