Paris is the capital and primate city of France and the country’s most populous city. It is situated on the river Seine, in northern France, at the heart of the Île-de-France region (also known as the “Paris Region”; French: Région parisienne). The city of Paris, within its administrative limits largely unchanged since 1860, has an estimated population of 2,203,817 (January 2006), but the Paris aire urbaine (or metropolitan area) has a population of 11,769,433 (January 2006), and is one of the most populated metropolitan areas in Europe.
An important settlement for more than two millennia, Paris is today one of the world’s leading business and cultural centres, and its influence in politics, education, entertainment, media, fashion, science and the arts all contribute to its status as one of the world’s major global cities.
Paris and the Paris Region, with €533.6 billion (US$731.3 billion) in 2007, produces more than a quarter of the gross domestic product (GDP) of France. According to 2007 estimates, the Paris urban agglomeration is Europe’s biggest city economy and the sixth largest in the world. The Paris Region hosts 38 of the Fortune Global 500 companies in several business districts, notably La Défense, the largest purpose-built business district in Europe. Paris also hosts many international organizations such as UNESCO, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) and the informal Paris Club.
Paris is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, with 45 million tourists every year in the Paris Region, 60% of whom are foreign visitors. There are numerous iconic landmarks among its many attractions, along with world-famous institutions and popular parks.

Honestly, I feel like your trip won’t be that enjoyable. Paris is 6 hours ahead of Florida and if you’re not used to time differences, you may get jet lag. Also, the flight there would be around 12-14 hours, including connections. Unless you’re willing to add 2 more days on to your trip (arrival and departure days) your trip will feel too rushed.
You absolutely will not need a rental car while there. You can catch a train from central Paris to Euro Disney. Paris is a large city; unless you’re content with just running past the major attractions you won’t see very much. Also, do either of you speak any French? It’s not necessary but if you don’t I highly suggest that you plan out your vacation in detail beforehand.
The flight will be around $1500-$1900 for both of you, not sure if you can get any discounts on that. The Disney site only shows offers through April 1, 2010, but the cheapest for 3 days, 2 nights is $264 per person, which includes park entrance. That’s at the Hotel Cheyenne.
