Key takeaway
Orly taxi in 2026: €36 to the Left Bank, €45 to the Right Bank, plus €4 or €7 when booked. What the fare covers, against metro 14 and a private driver.
A Paris taxi from Orly costs a flat €36 to the Left Bank and €45 to the Right Bank in 2026, set by the order of 24 December 2025 and applied since 1 February. A booked taxi adds €4 for an immediate booking or €7 for one made in advance, and €5.50 per passenger from the fifth. Metro line 14 costs €14 with the airport ticket. A PrivateDrive driver costs €105 in an E-Class: more than twice the taxi fare to the Right Bank, close to three times to the Left Bank. Here is what each price covers, and when the gap is worth paying.
The 2026 flat fares, from the official source
| Direct taxi ride | Flat fare 2026 |
|---|---|
| Orly and the Left Bank | €36 |
| Orly and the Right Bank | €45 |
| CDG and the Right Bank | €56 |
| CDG and the Left Bank | €65 |
These are the amounts published by Service-Public for direct rides by Paris taxis between Paris and the two airports, in both directions. Orly is the mirror of CDG: the Left Bank is the cheaper side because the airport lies south of the city. The flat fare only covers a ride between the airport and Paris. La Défense, Versailles or Disneyland are outside it, and the taxi runs on the meter, within the national caps for 2026: €4.48 pick-up and €1.30 per kilometre.
What can be added to the taxi fare
For Paris taxis, the booking supplements stay at their 2025 level: €4 for an immediate booking, €7 for a booking in advance. On top of that, Service-Public states that a single passenger supplement of €5.50 can be applied from the fifth person carried, and nothing else: a suitcase is not charged. Take your taxi at the official rank, signposted at each Orly sector, and decline anyone who offers you a ride inside the terminal.
Metro 14 and Orlyval: the cheapest way in
Line 14 runs directly from Orly to central Paris. The Paris Région <> Aéroports ticket costs €14 at the full adult fare in 2026, and it also covers Orlyval with the RER B via Antony. For one traveller with a cabin bag, nothing is cheaper. Two adults pay €28, still below the taxi; four adults pay €56, more than a taxi to either bank.
The private driver: what the difference pays for
A PrivateDrive transfer between Orly and Paris costs €105 in an E-Class (3 passengers, 2 suitcases), €125 in a V-Class (7 passengers, 7 suitcases) and €170 in an S-Class. That is more than twice the taxi flat fare to the Right Bank and close to three times to the Left Bank, and we would rather say it plainly. What the difference buys: a driver waiting in the arrivals hall with your name, your flight followed, up to 60 minutes of waiting counted from the actual landing, a price fixed at booking for any address in Paris, and a vehicle chosen in advance for your luggage. A cancellation more than 48 hours before pickup is refunded in full.
The case for it grows with the group and the luggage. At the rank you take the next taxi in line; a family of five with suitcases fits in one V-Class booked ahead, at €125. Our 2026 private driver price grid lists the other airports and routes.
| Option | Price in 2026 | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Taxi at the official rank | €36 Left Bank, €45 Right Bank | Direct ride to Paris, next car in line |
| Taxi booked | Same fare plus €4 or €7 | Pickup arranged in advance or on demand |
| Metro 14 | €14 per adult | Train to central Paris, then on foot or by connection |
| PrivateDrive, E-Class | €105 | Name sign in arrivals, flight followed, 60 minutes of waiting |

Two questions travellers ask
For two people, is the taxi or metro 14 cheaper?
Metro 14: two full adult airport tickets cost €28, against €36 or €45 for the taxi, before any booking supplement. The taxi takes you to the door; the metro leaves the last stretch to you.
Does the private driver cost more at night?
Yes, by 10% for a pickup between 9 pm and 6 am. The amount appears in the quote before you pay, and a late landing does not change the price once the booking is made.
