Wikipedia description:

Paris Orly Airport (French: Aéroport de Paris-Orly, pronounced [aeʁɔpɔʁ də paʁi ɔʁli]; IATA: ORY, ICAO: LFPO) is one of two international airports serving Paris, France, the other one being Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG). It is located partially in and named after Orly, 13 kilometres (8 mi; 7 nmi) south of Paris. The airport served as the secondary hub for Air France until March 2026, handling many flights to domestic and overseas French territories. Most of these services have transferred to Charles de Gaulle Airport, with domestic routes from Orly handed over to the airline's low-cost subsidiary, Transavia France. Public service obligation (PSO) routes from the airport to Corsica continue to be operated by Air France. Orly operates flights to destinations in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, the Caribbean, South America, and North America. Before the opening of CDG in 1974, Orly was the main airport of Paris. Even with the shift of most international traffic to CDG, Orly remains the busiest French airport for domestic traffic and the second busiest French airport overall in passenger traffic, with 34,928,909 passengers in 2025. It is served by Aéroport d'Orly station of the Paris Metro.
