Useful Information Regarding Orly Airport

In fact, the airport routinely gets over 30 million people through its doors. These passengers benefit from several amenities, such as duty-free shops, restaurants, bars and lounges, hotels, and car rental services. The airport is also quite efficient due to its 3 runways, 4 terminals, and convenient inter-terminal shuttle service.
