Aéroport d'Orly station is a future Paris Métro station serving as the terminus station of Line 14 and of Line 18, part of the Grand Paris Express project. It is located on the land of the commune Paray-Vieille-Poste and will serve Orly Airport, about 13 km (8.1 mi) south of Paris.
The station is planned to open together with the extension of Line 14 to the south in June 2024,[2] shortly before the start of the Olympic Games. Line 14 will connect Orly Airport to Olympiades (its current southern terminus within Paris) in a travel time of 16 minutes.[3] The station will improve the transport offering at Orly Airport, which is currently served by tramway T7 and by the orlyval automated shuttle to Antony station on line RER B.
Line 18 of Grand Paris Express is planned to start running from the station in 2027,[3] serving Massy – Palaiseau, the Saclay plateau and Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines. Thus, it will connect the airport to Paris-Saclay, a research and business cluster to the south of Paris that is currently under construction. In 2030, the line will reach Versailles-Chantiers.
The station is being built on the level of the last extension of the parking garage P0, right next to a connector building connecting the South and West terminals. Work began in March 2017 with the demolition of a road bridge opposite the drop-off point and the P0 parking extension.[4] Construction of the station started in September 2018 for delivery in 2024.[1]
The station will be operated by RATP Dev from its opening in 2024 until at least 2027.[5]
