Summary of our tips:
- The cheapest solution: RER B + Orlyval
- The fastest solution: Taxi
Note: The Bus Direct, this direct bus that was connecting CDG et ORLY doesn’t exist anymore.
1) RER B + Orlyval
You can choose to take the RER and the Orlyval (a shuttle from Orly airport) and vice versa, to link both airports.
The airport Orly is not directly linked to the train station, hence why you have to use the shuttle, Orlyval, to get to the airport at the RER station Antony.
This Shuttle runs every 5 to 7 minutes between 6am and 11.35pm.
Time: ~ 75-90 minutes
Frequency: Every 6-8 minutes
First train / last train: 6am / 11pm
Price: €14.10
M opinion: Despite the fact that the ride is not direct as you have to use the Orlyval, the price is affordable and the traveling time is average.
Taxi
You can pre-order a taxi online in advance to avoid having to wait.
The taxi will be waiting for you at the airport with a sign in order not to waste any time trying to find it and then it takes about an hour if there is a smooth flow.
Time: ~50 – 60 minutes
Price: €70 – €110
My opinion: You are able to get to both airports without having to take public transportation and without having to hurry to catch a connection. However, it is very expensive which is not ideal for everyone.

Motorcycle-taxi
Although it is not a frequently used method of transportation, the motorcycle-taxi remains practical and fast when you do not want to wait for a regular cab and don’t have too much luggage.
You can book one in advance.
The motorcycle-taxi takes about 50 minutes to get to the center of Paris depending on traffic. For more information, you can visit Citybird’s website or Motocab’s website.
Time: ~40 – 50 minutes
Price: €129 – €159
My opinion: It is the fastest way to link both airports if you have a connection to catch. However, it is very pricey and, although the motorcycle is comfortable, you won’t be able to bring heavy luggage and will have to be traveling alone.
