Working out where to meet your driver at Orly airport is easier than at Charles de Gaulle, mostly because Orly is more compact and the terminals are physically connected. That said, the airport was reorganised in recent years, and the old Orly Sud and Orly Ouest names have given way to four numbered terminals. If your last visit predates that change, this guide clears up exactly where to go, how the meet-and-greet works and what we need from you so your driver is standing in the right hall when you walk out.
The principle is the same wherever you land: with a pre-booked private transfer your driver comes inside the building to find you, rather than you queueing at a rank outside. After a flight, that small difference is the one that lets you relax instead of hunting for a taxi.
Orly's terminals: what changed and what to call them
Orly now operates as a single building split into four terminal zones, numbered Terminal 1, Terminal 2, Terminal 3 and Terminal 4. These replaced the older Orly Sud and Orly Ouest designations. Broadly, Terminals 1, 2 and 3 occupy the former Orly Sud side, while Terminal 4 covers what travellers used to know as Orly Ouest. Because the zones are linked by a walkway and a tram-style shuttle, the numbering matters less than it does at CDG, but it still helps to know your terminal so you head to the correct arrivals hall the first time.
How the meet-and-greet works at Orly
The handover follows a simple flow from the aircraft to the car. Your driver tracks your flight and positions themselves in the arrivals hall of your terminal before you appear.
- Leave the aircraft and follow signs for passport control and Bagages.
- Clear immigration if required and collect your checked luggage.
- Head into the arrivals hall following the exit signs for your terminal.
- Find your driver near the exit doors holding a name board with your name.
Whichever terminal you land at, the meeting point is the arrivals hall near the exit. Knowing where to meet your driver at Orly airport really comes down to that one phrase: the arrivals hall of your terminal, by the exit, where the name board is held up.
Which arrivals hall for each terminal
Each terminal at Orly has its own arrivals area, and the signage in French and English makes them easy to follow:
Terminals 1 and 2. These sit on the former Orly Sud side and share a connected concourse. Follow the exit signs and your driver waits in the arrivals hall near the doors.
Terminal 3. A compact zone, also on the southern side, with a small and easily navigated arrivals hall where the driver is quick to spot.
Terminal 4. The former Orly Ouest area, used by many domestic and European flights. Its arrivals hall has its own exit, and that is where your driver will be standing.
What we need so the pick-up goes smoothly
Two details make all the difference. Share your flight number so we can track the aircraft and send the driver to the correct terminal at the right moment, and give us a mobile number that works on arrival so the driver can message you straight away. If your flight is delayed, free waiting time is included and the driver simply stays until you reach the hall. For the wider picture of the route, our Orly to Disneyland transfer page and the private taxi from Orly details set out fares and timings, while the meet-and-greet service page explains the coordination in full.
