What is included

The journey

Paris has twenty arrondissements, and the postcode tells the driver which one: 75001 to 75020. Give the full street address, not just 'Paris'. In the Marais and around Montmartre many streets are narrow, one-way or pedestrian, so the driver stops at the closest point the car can reach.

Arriving at Paris Orly Airport

Orly is just south of Paris. It has four terminals, Orly 1 to Orly 4, joined together in one long building. Your driver waits in the arrivals area of your terminal, after customs, with your name on a sign.

How long it really takes

Maps says 43 minutes. That is the driving. Door to door from the moment you land is a different number, and it is the one worth planning around.

Realistically, 73 to 118 minutes after landing. If someone is waiting for you, that is the number to give them.

When to book

Booking early costs the same as booking late — the price does not move. What moves is whether there is a car left.

A week aheadJuly, August, Fridays and Saturdays. The busiest arrivals of the year.
As soon as you have the flightGroups of five or more. Vans and minibuses go first, always.
Two or three daysLanding between 23:00 and 06:00. Fewer drivers are working.
The day before is fineEverything else. The same morning usually works too.

Cancellation is free until 24 hours before, so booking early costs you nothing if the plan changes.

Before you land

Four terminals — check yoursOrly 1, 2, 3 and 4 are joined in one long building, but their arrivals exits are far apart. The driver waits at the terminal on your booking, so check it matches your ticket.
Paris traffic sets the timeThe A6 motorway into Paris and the périphérique ring road are often slow at rush hour. The price is fixed, so traffic changes the time, not what you pay.
Motorway tolls are includedMost French autoroutes are toll roads. Any toll on your route is inside the fixed price, so there is nothing to pay on the day.
VTC or taxi licenceEvery driver holds a French VTC professional card or a taxi licence, both issued by the prefecture. We check the licence and the insurance before a company takes its first ride.

FAQ

How long does it take to get from Paris Orly Airport to Central Paris (Opéra)?

About 43 minutes for the 28 km, outside peak traffic. Your driver knows the route and follows the flight, so a delayed landing moves the pick-up rather than costing you the transfer.

How much is a transfer from Paris Orly Airport to Central Paris (Opéra)?

From €58 for up to four passengers, and €84 for a group of five or six in a van. The price is fixed when you book — tolls and taxes included, nothing added at the end.

What happens if my flight is late?

We track the flight number you give us. The driver waits and adjusts to the actual landing time, with 60 minutes of free waiting after the plane touches down.

Where do I meet the driver at Paris Orly Airport?

In the arrivals hall after you clear customs. The day before your trip we send you the driver's name, phone number and vehicle, and they contact you with the exact spot.

Can I cancel?

Free up to 24 hours before pick-up, refunded in full and automatically. On many routes you can also book without paying and we only charge the card 48 hours before you travel.
