Orly Airport is about 14 km south of the centre of Paris and before the construction of Charles de Gaulle Airport, it was the main airport in the French capital.

Today, it mainly serves domestic flights, European flights and routes to former French colonies such as Maghreb and the Middle East, overseas departments such as Guadeloupe, Martinique and French Guiana in the Caribbean, Réunion and Mayotte in the Indian Ocean and finally the Former Overseas Territories such as French Polynesia and New Caledonia as well as the French Southern and Antarctic Lands.

Orly Airport to city centre

Unfortunately, there is no direct connection between Paris Orly Airport and the city centre. You will necessarily have to make changes by public transport.

It is important to know that Paris Orly Airport is in fare zone 4, so all travel on public transport is included in the Navigo Pass and the Paris Visite card (Zones 1-5). The only exception is Orlyval, which does not accept the Navigo Pass.

Orlyval light metro + RER B

Orlyval is a light metro that connects Terminals 1-2-3 and 4 free of charge and allows you to arrive in Paris in combination with the RER B train.

To reach the centre of Paris, you can then take the Orlyval to the RER Antony station and from there continue by train in the direction of Cité Universitaire, Denfert-Rochereau, Port Royal, Luxembourg, Saint-Michel-Notre-Dame, Châtelet-Les Halles, Gare du Nord.

The transfer time is approximately 6 minutes from Orly 1-2 or 2 minutes from Orly 4 to which you must add 25 to 30 minutes by RER. In fact, the RER B journey times between Paris and Antony station are:

The frequency of departures varies from 5 to 7 minutes and the Orlyval runs a regular service from 06.00 to 23.35.

The line passes through Paris-Orly airport with a stop at Orly 4 and the Coeur d’Orly area (Ibis, Ibis Budget and Novotel hotels).

It takes approximately 45 minutes to travel from one end of the line to the other, 80 minutes to reach Orly 4 from Paris with a connection to metro line 7. Please note that compared to other means of transport, the tram is slow and takes about 45 minutes in total, with as many as 15 intermediate stops before reaching the metro.
