Getting Around

How to get to and from Paris-Orly Airport — taxis, public transport, shuttles and car rental.

Transport Options at ORY

Paris-Orly Airport is connected to Paris (Orly, Val-de-Marne) and the wider France transport network by multiple ground transport options.

Rail & Metro

Paris Métro Line 14 runs direct to Orly (serving Terminal 3), reaching central Paris (e.g. Châtelet-Les-Halles) in about 25 minutes. Alternatively, RER B to Antony plus the automated Orlyval shuttle (a non-stop 6-minute ride to Orly 1-2-3) takes about 25-30 minutes total. Both require a Paris Region airport-linked ticket.

Bus & Shuttle

Bus 183 connects Orly to Gare de Thiais-Orly for a cheaper, if slower and multi-transfer, route via Métro Line 14 or RER C. Note that the older Orlybus and Le Bus Direct coach services into central Paris have been discontinued.

Taxi

Paris sets fixed flat airport taxi rates rather than pure metered fares from Orly: officially quoted flat fares are €45 to the Right Bank (Rive Droite) and €36 to the Left Bank (Rive Gauche) of central Paris; these official rates can be revised over time, so treat the exact euro figures as indicative of the current tariff rather than permanent.

Rideshare

Uber operates at Orly with terminal-specific designated pickup points for Terminals 1, 3, and 4 individually.

Car Rental

Major rental agencies have desks across Orly's terminals.

Insider tip

Since Métro Line 14's extension direct to Orly (Terminal 3), it's usually the fastest and cheapest route into central Paris — the older Orlyval/RER B combo is now mainly useful if your terminal or destination station makes it more direct.

Transport routes, fares and operators change frequently. Verify current options on the official Paris-Orly Airport website before travel.
