The VIP transfer service from Orly Airport to the centre of Paris offered by AKI VIP Transfer ensures a private journey door to door from the terminal where you arrive to your hotel, apartment, office, event venue or another address in central Paris.
The driver will keep track of your flight, arrive at the agreed pickup location, assist you with your luggage and then take you straight to your destination.

Journey Overview
Paris-Orly Airport sits nearer to central Paris than Charles de Gaulle or Beauvais. Still, travel can take a while during busy times. Traffic often slows down around the A106, A6, Porte d’Orléans, Porte d’Italie, and the Boulevard Périphérique.
AKI VIP Transfer offers a private vehicle for your group and includes no shared stops, no changes of station, and no extra journeys between the public transport stop and your final destination.
Your transfer can include:
- Pickup from Orly 1, Orly 2, Orly 3, or Orly 4
- Flight tracking
- Meet-and-greet service
- Help with normal personal luggage
- A private vehicle for your passengers
- Direct travel to your Paris address
- Drop-off at the nearest suitable entrance
- 24/7 customer support
- Payment at the end of the journey
Distance from Orly Airport to Paris City Centre
The distance between Orly Airport and the Paris City Centre is usually about 13 to 20 km, the precise figure varying according to the arrival terminal, the destination location, and the route taken on the day.
“Paris City Centre” can refer to several districts and neighbourhoods, including:
- Châtelet
- Opéra
- Saint-Germain-des-Prés
- The Latin Quarter
- Le Marais
- The Louvre area
- Gare de Lyon
- Montparnasse
- The Champs-Élysées district
- Areas near the Eiffel Tower
Main Route into Paris
The typical route starts on the airport access roads which serve Orly 1, Orly 2, Orly 3, and Orly 4; the driver generally takes the A106 and then continues on the A6a or A6b towards Paris.
The vehicle can enter the city via Porte d’Orléans, Porte d’Italie, or another appropriate entrance on the Boulevard Périphérique; the exact route will vary according to the destination address and the present traffic conditions.
The A106 and A6a routes towards Porte d’Orléans are often the most practical option when travelling to left-bank areas such as Montparnasse, Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the Latin Quarter and those near the Eiffel Tower.
For places on the right bank such as Opéra, the Louvre, Le Marais and certain areas of central or eastern Paris, the driver can proceed towards the Périphérique and then choose the most suitable city entrance.
Alternative Routes During Heavy Traffic
If traffic is slow on the A6 or Boulevard Périphérique, the driver may use sections of the A86, N7, or local roads through areas such as:
- Rungis
- Villejuif
- Kremlin-Bicêtre
- Ivry-sur-Seine
Alternative routes could be looked at during the weekday rush hours, when there are roadworks, at times of major events, during traffic on school holidays, or when there is congestion near the southern entrances to Paris.
Travel Time from Orly Airport to Paris
Travel time depends on traffic conditions, weather, roadworks, public holidays, special events, the pickup terminal, and your destination's exact location.
| Travel Period | Distance | Estimated Driving Time |
|---|---|---|
| Off-peak hours | 13–20 km | 25–35 minutes |
| Peak hours | 13–20 km | 35–60 minutes |
| Late at night | 13–20 km | 20–30 minutes |
| Early morning | 13–20 km | 25–40 minutes |
The figures given here pertain only to the journey by road following on from where you meet your driver; the time taken for passport control, collecting your luggage, walking through the terminal, and getting to the meeting point must be considered separately.
The journey time can be lengthened by morning traffic entering Paris and by evening congestion around the Périphérique, with delays being most frequent near the A6a, A6b, Porte d’Orléans and Porte d’Italie.
The driver looks at the traffic situation and, where possible, chooses an appropriate route; however, no assurance can beduringravel times if there are accidents, road closures, demonstrations, major events, or unusually heavy congestion.

What Happens After You Arrive at Orly Airport
The four main terminal sections at Orly Airport are Orly 1, Orly 2, Orly 3, and Orly 4. Giving the driver your flight number will enable him to match your arrival and get ready for the right terminal.
Airport Pickup Process
- Make sure to provide your flight number when you book.
- The driver keeps track of both the scheduled and the updated arrival time.
- Once you have landed, carry out the airport arrival procedures and pick up your luggage.
- Proceed to the meeting place that you and the other person agreed upon at your end of the process.
- The driver will meet you and assist you with your luggage.
- Go with the driver to the private vehicle.
- Go straight to the address in Paris.
- Make the payment at the conclusion of the transfer.
You should wait at the meeting place that was agreed as part of the booking procedure. Since passengers might leave the arrival area via different exits, make sure your phone is ready in case either the driver or the support team needs to get in touch with you.
Delayed Flights
The AKI VIP Transfer service tracks flights for airport pickups and adjusts the pickup based on the new arrival details.
When booking, make sure to provide the correct flight number, as this allows the driver to distinguish between a real flight delay and a passenger who has arrived but not yet reached the meeting point.
Drop-Off in Paris
The vehicle will take you to the closest appropriate entrance for the place you have booked. Depending on the local access conditions, this could be:
- A hotel entrance or reception area
- An apartment building
- An office entrance
- An event or venue entrance
- Another agreed address
- The closest legal and accessible stopping point
In central Paris certain streets have restrictions on access, a limited amount of space for stopping, pedestrian areas, roadworks, or temporary traffic regulations. If the vehicle cannot stop directly outside the building the driver should use the nearest suitable and allowed spot.
Vehicles for the Orly to Paris Route
For this journey, AKI VIP Transfer offers business-class cars, VIP vans, and private minivans. The vehicle choice depends on the number of passengers, the amount of luggage, and any special items you plan to bring.
| Transfer Category | Example Vehicles | Passenger Capacity | Luggage Space | Suitable For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| VIP van | Mercedes V-Class, Peugeot Traveller | 6–7 passengers | High | Families, VIP guests and private groups |
| Private minivan | VW Caravelle, Renault Trafic | 7–8 passengers | High | Larger groups and luggage-heavy journeys |
| Business-class transfer | Mercedes S-Class, Lexus | 3–4 passengers | Medium | Executives, couples and smaller parties |
The vehicles have clean interiors, air conditioning, passenger seating, luggage storage and a professional driver.
A business-class car is suitable for one to three passengers who are travelling to a meeting or a hotel and have only a moderate amount of luggage, whereas a VIP van or minivan is usually more appropriate when dealing with families, groups, strollers, or several large suitcases.
The specific models available depend on the category that has been chosen.
Luggage Policy
There is no extra luggage fee for normal personal luggage.
Tell the booking team in advance if you are travelling with:
- Several large suitcases
- Baby strollers
- Sports equipment
- Oversized bags
- Wheelchairs or mobility equipment
- Large business equipment
- Any other special items
If AKI VIP Transfer is to arrange a vehicle with sufficient storage space, it is necessary to share accurate information regarding the luggage. The passenger capacity alone does not guarantee that all suitcases will fit, especially in the case of a vehicle that is booked near its maximum seating level.
It is useful to have a private transfer if you don't want to have to carry your suitcases through the metro corridors, the platforms, the station exits, or the busy streets after your flight.
Child Seats and Family Transfers
Child seats and boosters are available upon request.
When making your booking please state the number of children and their ages so that the team can arrange the suitable seating before you pick up the kids; additionally, families travelling with strollers should include them when giving their luggage information.
Vans and minivans of a larger size are usually more suitable for families who have to carry a mix of suitcases, hand luggage, strollers, and child seats.
Why should you book a private VIP transfer?
It doesn't mean that a private transfer is the most inexpensive method of getting to central Paris, and the main benefit is that the car, the pickup arrangement, and the destination are all organised prior to your arrival.
Direct Transport to Your Address
There's no necessity for you to change trains, carry your luggage from one platform to another, or arrange a different taxi at the station. The driver will take you from Orly Airport to the hotel, apartment, office, or venue that you have booked.
A Vehicle Selected for Your Group
When assigning a vehicle, the booking team can take your number of passengers, suitcases, strollers, and other items into account, and this approach is more predictable than having to join a taxi queue without knowing which vehicle will be available.
Flight Tracking
The driver will carry out the journey using the flight details given at the time of booking; this is particularly useful if the aircraft arrives earlier or later than planned.
Luggage Assistance
The driver assists with putting the normal personal luggage on and off the vehicle, but passengers must as before declare any oversized items and any unusually large amounts of luggage.
Fixed Booking Arrangements
The fare and type of vehicle are confirmed before the trip, so that you can know in advance how much you will have to pay without having to rely on the situation when you land.
24/7 Service
We offer transfer services for arrivals after midnight and pickups before morning, as well as for flights during the day.
Pay After the Transfer
You don't need to make an advance payment when booking; you'll pay at the end of the trip.
VIP Transfer Compared with a Standard Private Transfer
A VIP transfer differs from a standard private transfer not only in the vehicle but also in regard to the pickup procedure, communication, luggage arrangements, the preparation of the route, and the service given by the driver.
| Feature | AKI VIP Transfer | Standard Private Transfer |
|---|---|---|
| Vehicle category | Higher-class cars, vans and minivans | Basic private car or standard van |
| Driver service | Chauffeur-style private service | Standard driver service |
| Airport pickup | Flight tracking, meet and greet, luggage help | Depends on the provider |
| Route planning | Route selected according to traffic and destination | Often based mainly on standard navigation |
| Privacy | Vehicle reserved for your party | Vehicle reserved for your party |
| Luggage planning | Vehicle can be selected using declared luggage details | Depends on vehicle availability |
| Payment | Pay at the end of the transfer | Depends on the provider |
| Support | 24/7 customer support | Depends on the provider |
A VIP transfer should be considered if you have more than one suitcase, are travelling with children, need a bigger vehicle, or have to reach a address in Paris by a specific time.
People who only want the cheapest option might prefer to use public transport.

Other Ways to Travel from Orly Airport to Paris
A private transfer is just one of the available options; the most suitable one will vary according to your budget, the amount of luggage you have, the size of your group, your destination, and how keen you are on using public transport.
| Option | Typical Cost Level | Direct to Address | Privacy | Main Consideration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AKI VIP Transfer | Confirmed private fare | Yes | Private | Booked vehicle and direct drop-off |
| Metro or train | Lower | No | Shared | Walking, tickets and possible connections |
| Airport taxi | Variable or regulated by applicable taxi rules | Yes | Private | Queue and available vehicle size |
| Bus or shared shuttle | Lower | Usually no | Shared | Scheduled stops and longer journey |
| Ride-hailing service | Variable | Yes | Private | Demand pricing and pickup-point coordination |
Metro Line 14
Metro Line 14 offers a public transport link between Orly Airport and Paris and may be a sensible option for individual travellers having only light luggage and who are going to a destination near a convenient station.
It's worth considering the distance you'll have to walk at either end of the trip, since getting to a hotel or an apartment might still involve another metro connection, a bus, a taxi, or walking with your luggage.
OrlyVal and RER B
Passengers can as well use OrlyVal to get to Antony and then head towards Paris on the RER B.
As this route involves having to change trains, it might be less convenient for families, groups, or travellers with several suitcases.
Bus or Shared Shuttle
Even though bus and shared-shuttle services might be cheaper than using a private car, they have set schedules and can have a number of stops, and they might not take you straight to your accommodation.
Before you decide to go with this option, make sure you check the present route, timetable, operating hours, luggage regulations, and the last stop.
Airport Taxi
At Orly Airport you can get taxis, which offer direct transport though there may be queues during busy arrival times.
People who have multiple bags or who are travelling in a large group should check if the taxi available has sufficient room for both seating and luggage.
Ride-Hailing Services
Ride-hailing services do offer direct transport, but their prices can go up when there is high demand. The pickup locations may vary from one terminal to another, so new visitors should check the right collection point in the app.
For whom is this transfer most suitable?
The VIP transfer from Orly Airport to Paris City Centre is most suitable for passengers who prioritize direct transport, privacy, luggage space and a booked airport pickup.
It may suit:
- Families travelling with children, strollers, and suitcases
- Business passengers heading to an office, hotel, meeting, or event
- Couples who prefer a private vehicle
- Small groups needing a van or minivan
- Passengers arriving late at night or early in the morning
- Travellers carrying several bags
- VIP guests who want a chauffeur-style airport pickup
- Visitors staying at an address that is not close to a direct public transport stop
For a single traveller carrying only light luggage whose main concern is keeping their fare as low as possible, the Metro Line 14 or some other form of public transport might be a better option.
