Overview
Paris Orly Airport (IATA: ORY, ICAO: LFPO) is the second-largest international airport serving Paris, France, after Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG). Located about 13 km south of Paris city centre, ORY is a major hub for Air France (AF) and Transavia France (TO), and serves as a key base for easyJet (U2), Corsair International (SS), and French Bee (BF).
Opened in 1932, Orly was Paris’s primary airport until the opening of Charles de Gaulle in 1974. The airport operates four terminals — Orly 1, Orly 2, Orly 3, and Orly 4 — following a major renovation completed in 2019 that simplified the terminal layout. Orly 1 and Orly 2 (formerly Orly West) handle domestic and European flights, while Orly 4 (formerly Orly South) serves long-haul, Caribbean, and North African routes. Orly 3 is the connecting building between all terminals, featuring a large duty-free area and direct access to the Orlyval and Metro Line 14.
ORY connects to over 180 destinations across Europe, North Africa, the Middle East, the Caribbean, and North America. The airport is particularly strong on routes to French overseas territories (DOM-TOM), including Guadeloupe (PTP), Martinique (FDF), Réunion (RUN), and French Guiana (CAY). Popular international destinations include Istanbul (IST), Dubai (DXB), Tel Aviv (TLV), and New York (EWR).
In 2025, Paris Orly Airport handled 34.9 million passengers, an increase of 5.5% compared to 2024 and 9.7% above pre-pandemic 2019 levels. The airport is subject to a regulatory cap of 250,000 flight movements per year and a nightly curfew between 23:15 and 06:00, designed to limit noise for surrounding communities.
