Orly is Paris's second airport — and while it is closer to the city than CDG, getting from Orly to your hotel without stress still requires some planning. The Orlyval, the bus, the shared taxi — each comes with its own drawbacks. A private Mercedes van transfer from Orly gives you the simplest, most comfortable option: door-to-door service, a fixed price, and a driver who handles everything.

Orly Airport — Key Facts for Travellers

Paris-Orly is located approximately 18 km south of central Paris, making it the closer of the two main Paris airports. Typical journey time to the city centre is 30 to 45 minutes by private van, though this can extend to 60 minutes during peak traffic hours.

Terminals: Orly has four terminals — Orly 1, 2, 3, and 4 — connected by the automated Orlyval shuttle. Most European, domestic and charter flights arrive here. We cover all terminals.

Airlines operating from Orly include Transavia, Vueling, Air Algeria, Royal Air Maroc, Corsair, and many others. It is the preferred airport for travellers coming from Spain, North Africa, and the French overseas territories.

Why a Private Van Beats Public Transport from Orly

The most common mistake travellers make is assuming the Orlyval train connection is convenient. In reality, the process involves: taking the Orlyval to Antony station → transferring to RER B → navigating a busy Paris station with luggage. For families, groups, or anyone with more than a carry-on, it quickly becomes exhausting.
