Gare de Lyon to Orly: the shortest station-to-airport link from central Paris
Gare de Lyon is one of the Paris stations closest to Orly, around 15 km to the south. The route uses the N6 or A6A depending on conditions, for a 20-to-35-minute journey. It is one of the fastest station-to-airport links from Paris, particularly useful for connections to short or medium-haul flights at Orly Terminal 2 (Air France, Transavia).
Gare de Lyon serves TGV routes to Lyon, Marseille, Nice, Barcelona, Geneva, and Turin. For travellers connecting from a provincial TGV to an Orly flight, this transfer avoids the RER C (connection at Invalides or Javel) and Orlyval (connection at Antony). Pick-up is available at the main hall or on the quai de la Rapée side.
