Paris-Orly International Airport, or simply Orly, was opened on the basis of an airship garage in 1932 as the second airport after Le Bourget in Paris. In the 1950s, Orly became the main airport in France, but with the opening of Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport in 1974 (the French call it easier - Roissy Airport), it again became the country's second airport, which it remains to this day, serving in recent years about 27 million passengers a year.
The airport itself occupies just over 15 km2 and is located in 7 communes at the junction of the two departments of Essonne and Val-de-Marne, 14 km strictly south of Paris. In order to protect residents of nearby settlements from noise, Orly Airport since 1968, by decision of the government, is forbidden to carry more than 30 million passengers a year and carry out night flights from 23-30 to 6-00. So if a plane heading to Orly is delayed in flight and flies up to Paris at night, then it will definitely be landed at Charles de Gaulle airport.
Terminals
- Terminal Sud (south) opened in 1961, 6-storey building in the departments of Val-de-Marne and Essonne;
- Terminal Ouest (western) opened in 1971, 2-storey building in Essonne department)
Interestingly, 27.4% of the area of the airport falls on the commune of Pare Vieille Post, 22.5% on the commune of Villeneuve-le-Roi and only 15.8% on the commune of Orly, whose name is given to the airport. The remaining 34.3% of the airport's area is in the communes of Athy-Mons, Vissa, Morangis and Chilly-Mazarin (all in the Essonne department).

The PABLO document must be handed over to the buyer by all trade enterprises. Documents are drawn up without the participation of officials: PABLO money-back terminals support a hint in Russian and are located at exits G (south terminal) and H (western terminal).

Greetings, dear friends! The topic of our conversation today is how to get from Orly airport to the center of Paris in all possible ways. I will also tell you about routes to Disneyland and Charles da Gaulle Airport.
Paris Orly airport is considered the second in the country in terms of passenger and cargo traffic after the capital Roissy - Charles de Gaulle. It is located on the left bank of the Seine, 15 kilometers south of Paris.
The airport accepts domestic and international flights.
There are several ways to get from Orly airport to the city. It all depends on your preferences.
In this article:
The fastest way day and night
The fastest way to get to the city is by taxi. Let's find out how much this trip will cost.
At Paris Orly Airport, as in most other air harbors in the world, you should not trust people offering illegal transportation services. Traveling with them can be dangerous and certainly not cheaper than an official taxi.
You can recognize a licensed carrier by a green light of a certain shape, fixed on the roof of the car. In addition, a special place is reserved for airport taxi parking:
- South Terminal (Paris-Orly Sud) - at Gate L,
- West Terminal (Paris-Orly Ouest) - at Gate B.
Daytime fares from the airport:
- On the left bank of the Seine - 50 euros
- On the right bank of the Seine - 55 euros
At night, the trip will cost 10-15% more. You will also have to pay extra for oversized luggage.
If you order taxi online, it will cost less and the price will be known in advance.
This is the most convenient and fastest way to travel for those who do not know the city or have a lot of luggage. In addition, it is most convenient to use the services of a taxi company at night.
By public transport
To get to the city by public transport, you will definitely need the OrlyVAL tram.
This is a special metro that runs around the airport. Its branch connects the terminals (there are only 2 of them) and is adjacent to the RER B line, a railway line from which you can leave for Paris.
So it is convenient to move around the airport and to the nearest transport stations on it.
It stops:
- Orly South Terminal (Paris-Orly Sud) - Entrance K
- Terminal Orly West (Paris-Orly Ouest) - at entrance A, arrivals sector
1. By train
Unfortunately, there is no railway line directly to Orly Airport, although two large stations are located quite close. Let me tell you how to get to them.
So, there are 2 railway lines near the airport:
1 —
line B (Antony station),
2 —
line C (station Pont-de-Rungis).
1 — Line B Antony station.
You can get to it by the OrlyVAL tram, which we talked about above. And at the station, take the train to Paris.
The total travel time will be approximately 35 minutes. The price is 9.5 euros (RER + tram).
2 — Line B Pont-de-Rungis station
This station can be reached by bus.
By bus "Paris par le train" from the terminals:
- T Orly South Terminal (Paris-Orly Sud) - at entrance F
- Terminal Orly West (Paris-Orly Ouest) - at entrance G, arrivals sector
Get off at the bus stop Thiais Pont de Rungis and a short walk to the train station.
from the station Pont-de-Rungis/Aéroport d'Orly RER C GOTA or NORA train can be reached to the transport hub Gare d "Austerlitz, which is located close to the center and where there is a metro station.
Travel time to Paris is about 35 minutes:
- 10 minutes - shuttle,
- 25 min - train.
The price is 6.2 euros for the shuttle and train.
I draw your attention to the fact that trains do not run at night and you can only get there by bus.

Their schedule can be found at the airport information desk.
Travel times are approximate. Paris is famous for its traffic jams, so it is very difficult to calculate exact bus schedules.
3. By tram
A few years ago, a tram line was built to Orly Airport. Now route number 7 connects the airport and the final metro station Villejuif-Louis Aragon(branch 7).
Perhaps this is the best way to go to the city for travelers with a small budget and small luggage.
The tram will take you to the outskirts of Paris, and from there you can go down to the metro and leave in the right direction.
The cost of a tram ride from the airport to the city is 1.8 euros. The ticket is the most common universal for public transport (valid also on buses and metro). Such a ticket is sold at automatic ticket offices, which are located in the arrivals sector.
Travel time is about half an hour.
Another advantage of the tram is its independence from traffic congestion. In the Orly region, they are almost constantly.
The tram runs from about 6 am to 12 am, so at night it will not work.
4. The most comfortable way
The most comfortable and independent of the situation way is to rent a car. You can get a car right at the airport.
In the arrivals sector of the Orly air terminal, you will see several agency offices of car rental companies.
But if you want to save money, it is better to play it safe and in advance choose a car.
In this case, the company's agent will deliver the car of your choice by the time of your arrival. You will only have to complete the small formalities associated with the final conclusion of the transaction.
If you plan to arrive at Orly airport at night, you must make a preliminary car reservation. Representative offices of companies in the airport terminal do not work at night, and if you do not want to wait for the morning, take care of your convenience in advance.
Anyone who has:
- driving experience of at least three years,
- international driver's license,
- age from 21 years old.
Do not forget to print the pre-booking contract if you book a car in advance. At the airport, you will show this printout along with your passport to the agent.
Also pay attention to the validity of your driver's license. Some companies may refuse to rent a car if 30 calendar days or less are left before their replacement.
Arguing with employees and proving that at the time the document expires you will already be at home is useless. There are internal instructions and everything.
You can leave Orly airport for Paris by car along the Nationale 7 road, which runs under the southern terminal of the air terminal, or along the A6 highway.
Ready route:
Thousands of tourists from all over the world arrive in Paris every day. This city has something to see for people with a variety of tastes and needs. I am sure that you will not remain indifferent to this unusual and contrasting city.
For today I have everything. I say goodbye to you, dear friends. See you soon!
