The
Airport Bus from Orly Airport to Central Paris
offers a convenient and potentially cheap transfer option.
There is a choice of routes by airport bus from Orly to Paris.
RATP who run the buses, RER trains and Metro within Paris offer two
of the options.
A bonus with the RATP is that a Paris
travel pass can include the airport transfer.
The cheapest transfer from Orly airport to Paris is the public
bus route 285 to Villejuif Metro. This is a normal Paris public
bus. |
 |
The Orly Bus is the most popular, traveling
non-stop to Denfert Rochereau, a Metro/RER interchange well south
of the centre. By starting here, the risk of traffic delays are
minimised.
The airport authority ADP, runs a regular bus to the nearest RER
train station on Line C at Pont de Rungis.
The Air France bus, terminates right next
to the River Seine on the South Bank, again next to a Metro/RER
station at Invalides via Montparnasse.
The main bus terminus is in front of the south (sud) terminal. Only
the 285 bus doesn't also go to the west terminal.
There is a walkway between the two terminals, or you can take the
monorail link from west to south terminal free of charge, (but not
south to north).
