EUR 14 is the airport fare and it is the whole reason this page exists: the same ride from the next station in would cost EUR 2.55, and the tram from Orly 4 reaches the same Châtelet for EUR 4.60 in about eighty minutes.

The ticket is sold only on a phone or on a Navigo Easy card (about EUR 2), and a card that already holds ordinary métro tickets cannot take an airport ticket. Buy it in the Île-de-France Mobilités app before you reach the gates.

A Navigo Jour day pass is NOT valid on line 14 to or from the airport, though it is valid on the tram and the night buses. Navigo weekly, monthly and annual passes for all zones are.

The hours above are the airport's, and its own page gives two different last trains, 00:00 and 00:30. Treat midnight as the last safe departure.

The station is under Orly 3, on the Orly 1-2-3 side. From Orly 4 it is a walk or the free inter-terminal shuttle; allow for it before trusting the 26 minutes.

From four travelers the Right Bank taxi is cheaper than four of these tickets; from three, the Left Bank taxi is.

This is the cheap way in and it is slow: Paris Aéroport's own figure is 80 minutes from Paris to Orly 4 with the change at Villejuif, against 26 on line 14. You are trading about an hour for EUR 9.40 a head.

Buy both tickets in the Île-de-France Mobilités app before you leave the terminal. The tram ticket will not open a métro gate and the métro ticket will not validate on the tram.

The tram stop is at Orly 4, not at the métro station under Orly 3. If you land at Orly 1, 2 or 3, the free shuttle to Orly 4 comes first.

It runs on the ordinary tariff, so every pass that is refused at the métro gates — a Navigo Jour, a card of ordinary tickets — works here.

The 40 minutes to Villejuif is the airport's figure for that leg; the same page also gives 45 for the full line end to end. The métro leg is not timed anywhere reachable, so the 80 is the only sourced door-to-door figure.
