Cheapest viable route

Brief

Usually slower but dramatically cheaper than the flagship airport express.

Service
Go C Paris shuttle bus + RER C
Mode
bus
Freq
15-30m
Note
The Go C Paris shuttle connects Orly terminals with Pont de Rungis–Aéroport d’Orly RER C station, where trains continue to central Paris stops such as Bibliothèque François-Mitterrand, Gare d’Austerlitz, Saint-Michel–Notre-Dame, Invalides and Champ de Mars–Tour Eiffel. This option is slower than Metro 14 but can be useful for direct access to Left Bank RER C stations.

Passes and bundles

Brief

Look for day passes that include the airport zone plus metro, tram, or ferry transfers. Load value online to avoid kiosk surcharges.

When to splurge

Brief

Worth the premium when you have back-to-back meetings or tight onward connections downtown.
