Quick answers
Orly Airport to Disneyland Paris: the short answers
What families ask most before landing at Orly with a trip to Disneyland Paris ahead.
What is the easiest way from Orly to Disneyland Paris with children and luggage?
A pre-booked transfer, because it goes door to door. By public transport you take metro line 14 to Gare de Lyon or Châtelet–Les Halles, change to the RER A and get off at Marne-la-Vallée–Chessy, which takes about 1 hour 20 to 1 hour 40 with the change.
Is there an official shuttle from Orly to Disneyland Paris?
Yes: the Magical Shuttle, run by Transdev. Its published price is €24 for adults and €11 for children aged 3 to 11, and it leaves Orly roughly every hour from about 9 am to early evening. The ride takes about an hour. See the Magical Shuttle Orly page.
Is there a flat taxi fare from Orly to Disneyland Paris?
No. Flat fares only cover journeys between Orly and Paris. Beyond Paris an official taxi uses the meter, with a minimum fare of €8. The rules are set out in our guide to Orly taxi prices.
Where will we be dropped off?
At your Disney hotel, your partner hotel or the Disneyland Paris station area. The resort covers several kilometres, so give the exact hotel name or place when you book.
How early should we leave Disneyland Paris for a flight from Orly?
Add your airline’s check-in advice (about two hours before a short-haul flight, three before a long-haul one) to a 45–65 minute drive and a buffer. The Magical Shuttle itself asks you to allow at least 2.5 hours before your airport check-in.
Compared
Four ways from Orly to Disneyland Paris
There is no direct train from Orly, so the choice is between a door-to-door ride and a mix of shuttle and trains.
| Way to go | Time | What you pay | Who it suits | Worth knowing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pre-booked transfer Global Airport Taxi | About 45–65 min by road | Shown before you pay: one fare for the vehicle, not per person | Families and groups with luggage and pushchairs | Door to door to the hotel you name when you book, with no changes and no timetable. |
| Official taxi | About 45–65 min by road | By the meter, because the flat fares stop at the edge of Paris | Arrivals with no booking and a flexible plan | Taxis wait at the ranks outside your terminal. The minimum fare is €8. |
| Magical Shuttle | About 1 hour, longer with hotel stops | €24 adult, €11 child (3–11), under 3 free (published price) | One or two travellers staying at a Disney hotel | Fixed timetable, roughly hourly from about 9 am to early evening. It stops at the Disney hotels and the resort’s bus and train station. |
| Metro 14 + RER A | About 1 h 20 to 1 h 40 with the change | The airport ticket for metro 14 plus the fare to Marne-la-Vallée–Chessy; ask at a ticket desk about one ticket for the whole route | Light luggage and a flexible schedule | Change at Gare de Lyon or Châtelet–Les Halles. The station is next to the resort. |
Shuttle details are as published by the operator and may change: check the current timetable and prices before you travel. Metro line 14 fares are explained in our Orly taxi prices guide.
Drop-off points
Where exactly will you be dropped off?
Disneyland Paris is a resort, not a single address.
The resort is spread out
The parks, the station, the village and the Disney hotels are close together, but partner hotels in the surrounding towns such as Val d’Europe, Serris, Magny-le-Hongre and Bailly-Romainvilliers are several kilometres away, on different roads. A driver needs the exact place, not just “Disneyland”.
The station is not the park
Marne-la-Vallée–Chessy is the station for the RER A, TGV and the shuttle buses, and it is next to the resort. If you want a station drop-off, say so; if you want your hotel door, give the hotel’s name and address.
Villages Nature and other sites
Villages Nature Paris and some partner hotels are not on the main resort road and may need a different drop-off. Name them in your booking.

Doing the sums
Shuttle or private transfer for a family?
The shuttle is priced per person and the transfer per vehicle, so the answer depends on your group.
| Group | Magical Shuttle, one way | Private transfer |
|---|---|---|
| 2 adults and 2 children (aged 3–11) | 2 × €24 + 2 × €11 = €70 | One fare for the vehicle, shown in your quote |
| 2 adults and 3 children (aged 3–11) | 2 × €24 + 3 × €11 = €81 | One fare for the vehicle, shown in your quote |
| 4 adults | 4 × €24 = €96 | One fare for the vehicle, shown in your quote |
| 2 adults and 4 children (aged 3–11) | 2 × €24 + 4 × €11 = €92 | One fare for the vehicle, shown in your quote |

Questions
Orly to Disneyland Paris: your questions answered
How long does the transfer from Orly to Disneyland Paris take?
Usually 45 to 65 minutes by road for about 45–50 km. Allow longer on weekday rush hours, at weekends and in school holidays.
Can you drop us at the park entrance?
Tell us exactly where you want to be dropped when you book. The resort has parks, a station, a shopping and dining village and hotels spread over several kilometres, so the drop-off point matters. Enter the name of your hotel or the place you want in Get Quote.
Is Disneyland Paris closer to Orly or to Charles de Gaulle?
Charles de Gaulle is usually a little closer by road, so its transfer is often somewhat shorter, but Orly is a perfectly practical airport for the resort.
Does the Magical Shuttle run all day?
No. The published timetable has departures roughly every hour from about 9 am until early evening, so a late arrival needs another option. Check the current timetable before you travel.
Do we need a child seat for the transfer to Disneyland Paris?
Travelling with young children? Ask for a child seat when you book and tell us how many children are coming and how old they are, so the right seats are in the vehicle.
Can we bring pushchairs and a lot of luggage?
Yes. When you choose a vehicle count each pushchair as a bag and compare the total with the capacity shown for the vehicle. At the limit, choose the next size up.
Can you take a school or club group to Disneyland Paris?
Yes: a 16-seater minicoach, a 30-seater coach and a 50-seater coach are available for larger parties. Read about each in the full fleet.
What if my flight is late and I miss the Magical Shuttle?
The shuttle runs to a fixed timetable, so a late landing can mean a long wait for the next departure. A pre-booked transfer is arranged around your flight number, so the pickup follows your landing time instead.
Book your Orly to Disneyland Paris transfer
Skip the changes at Châtelet and the wait for the next shuttle: a pre-booked transfer takes your family from Orly straight to your Disney hotel, a partner hotel or the station area. Tell us the exact hotel, your flight number and how many people, pushchairs and bags are coming, and Get Quote shows the fare for each vehicle before you pay. A saloon car carries three passengers, an estate car five, a van eight and a minicoach sixteen, with larger coaches for school and club groups. Ask for child seats when you book, and your driver’s details reach you before the journey begins.
- Straight to your Disney hotel
- Vans and minibuses for families
