Which airport in Paris I should arrive at?

Question

Which airport in Paris is the closest to most attractions?

Answer 1

The two airports are at the same distance of Paris.

Orly is just a little bit nearer and is smaller than CDG, so I suggest to you Orly.

Answer 2

Depends on your entry point into Europe from the US.  If you are going direct, then you will arrive at De gaulle.

Answer 3

de gaulle

Answer 4

Trust me, i live in Paris, and Charles de Gaulle international is  definitely the best. Anyway, Paris Orly (the other airport) in only domestic flights, so u would need to be arriving from a European country.

Answer 5

Charles de Gaulle handles most international flights coming from the US, Africa, and Asia.  It is extremely large and can be confusing if it is your first time there.

Orly is a smaller airport to the south of Paris.  It handles mostly domestic and inter-European flights, but a few airlines offer one or two once-daily flights into the airport from select cities (specifically New York).  If at all possible, I'd advise you to fly into Orly.  However, tickets into CDG will be easier to come by and at a lesser price to boot.

Neither airport is terribly close to major attractions, as both are about twenty minutes away from the city.  You can take a cab ride, metro, or Air France coach into downtown Paris where you will find everything you could possible need.

Hope this helps!

Answer 6

Orly.
